Truth In Satire“Damn Tractor Brigade Overcharged Us!,” Trump Claims As Feds Probe InaugurationWith prosecutors investigating financial abuses by his inaugural committee, president blames it all on “those greedy farmers”The Rural Tractor Brigade is now being blamed by Mr. Trump for possible financial irregularities that occurred during his inauguration. (Credit: http://krvn.com) According to President Donald Trump a tractor parade by American farmers during his inauguration “was totally responsible” for egregious misspending now being investigated by federal prosecutors. “That damn tractor brigade overcharged us,” the president claimed in a tweet on Thursday after it was reported that the U.S. attorney’s office is looking into financial abuses by his inaugural committee. “I did nothing wrong, NOTHING! It was those greedy farmers.” Investigators are also looking into whether foreigners illegally contributed to Mr. Trump’s inaugural fund. Addressing that possibility, the president tweeted, “Foreigners were not the problem, IT WAS THE FARMERS!” Tractors parading past empty stands during President Trump’s 2017 inauguration. (Credit: www.thefencepost.com) While there was a large procession of American-made tractors during the inauguration parade driven by national farm leaders, it seems unlikely that their involvement could have cost the president’s organizing committee more than $100 million. “The farmers didn’t bill Mr. Trump’s inauguration tens of millions of dollars and their tractors weren’t the problem,” said one federal prosecutor who spoke off the record. “What we believe happened is that Donald Trump, most of his family members, and dozens of his shady business associates siphoned off most of the record $107 million raised to fill their own pockets. This was about wealthy donors giving Mr. Trump money to buy political influence. And that’s a very serious crime.” The president demonstrated his great love for farming last year when he lightly touched a piece of agricultural equipment. (Credit: www.breitbart.com) Flinty Beenstauk, president of the American Farmer’s Federation, who was driving one of the tractor’s during the parade, denied that his agricultural group overcharged the president’s inaugural committee, as Mr. Trump has charged. “It was actually the other way around,” said Mr. Beenstauk. “The president’s people charged us $5,000 per tractor to be part of his parade. It was a lot of money for our guys, but we wanted to show our support for Mr. Trump because we know how much he loves farming.” The president recently demonstrated his love for farmers by ratcheting up a trade war with China that is devastating U.S. agricultural exports. **** Thanks for your claps.
