On day 23,923 in elected office, 91-year-old hard-of-hearing Iowa GOP U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley whines about Trump pissing off cattle ranchers with his incessant Argentina beef posts

 
Chuck is content to sit on the sidelines until Trump does something that pisses off his constituents.  Then he starts mewling.

Headline: Des Moines Register, 10/23/2025

Donnelle Eller reports on how not to win friends and influence people:
“The Cattle Ranchers, who I love, don’t understand that the only reason they are doing so well, for the first time in decades, is because I put Tariffs on cattle coming into the United States, including a 50% Tariff on Brazil. If it weren’t for me, they would be doing just as they’ve done for the past 20 years — Terrible!” the president wrote. 
Asked about his social media post Thursday, Oct. 23, Grassley said in a call with reporters that “the president would be better off if he’d keep his mouth shut on that issue and not tweet about it."

Obviously, Trump doesn't know what the fuck he's doing.
