Hopeful Quotes

I would say that, from an agricultural perspective, I have a little bit of concern, because some of the folks I don't know are particularly supportive of the renewable fuel industry and the renewable fuel standard, which is a big part of certainly Midwestern agriculture.

I don't think Trump can ruin the country all by himself. I don't know. I hope I'm right.
