Louisiana Agriculture Commissioner Mike Strain is calling out Democratic presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg for the billionaire’s snooty and demeaning take on farmers.
“Anybody, even people in this room can be a farmer,” Bloomberg told a group of University of Oxford students in a 2016 video that recently surfaced. “It’s a process. You dig a hole, you put a seed in, you put dirt on top, add water, up comes the corn.”
