The Trump White House showed farmers some love Friday with a suggestive new website highlighting its agricultural policy, along with a massive golden tractor on the South Lawn.
The administration unveiled “OnlyFarms” — yes, the name is a deliberate play on the adult website OnlyFans — which is housed on the official WhiteHouse.gov website, but can only be found by searching “OnlyFarms.gov.”
While less sexy than its more popular counterpart, OnlyFarms includes a searchable map where users can click on their state to see the average amount they’ve saved due to Trump’s farming agenda.
The nation’s agricultural sector is struggling with high fuel and fertilizer costs as a result of President Trump’s global tariff scheme and the war against Iran.
Trump announced steps meant to ease some of the burdens Friday, including a new Small Business Administration loan program that will increase guarantees to 90% for lenders who work with small businesses in the agricultural industry, up from the current 75%.
Trump said the new guarantees would cover loans to vegetable, grain and seed farmers as well as cattle, pig and poultry producers.
He also confirmed that the Environmental Protection Agency is issuing new guidance for diesel emissions, based on a change in exhaust fluid sensors that the White House says will save billions.
The president touted “the single largest gathering of American farmers that the White House has ever seen” in his remarks to around 800 spectators Friday.
“And rain or shine, you don’t mind,” he added. “The one thing about farmers, they don’t care about that weather.”
Trump thanked the gathering for their support, calling them “very, very special people.”
“You voted for me. I will never forget that,” he said.
Trump was flanked by one gold tractor and and one red, white and blue tractor, with the former quickly catching the president’s attention.
“That’s a beautiful tractor. That’s a gold tractor. Somebody had me in mind,” he said as the crowd laughed. “That’s a hell of a tractor.”
Trump also told the crowd that no president had been more supportive of agriculture, reminding his audience “I just gave you $12 billion” in assistance this past December.
“You think Biden would have done that?”
