Tyson, a major beef plant, in Lexington, Nebraska is closing down and moving it’s operations to their Amarillo plant.

Folks! This is the 2 largest beef packing plant in Nebraska. Tyson has also close a pork processing facility in Perry, Iowa and the Emporia, Kansas beef plant over the past few years.

Tyson says that are losing money due to the tariffs and the high cost of beef.

See Dumpster Donnie! Not everything is good in our country!

The company I drive for, has been hauling loads from these plants and that hurts my company just as well!

Story from several local news outlets in the area.

1. The population of Lexington is just over 11,000.

Those job losses are going to kill that city.

2. Just looked, the County that includes Lexington

And it is a County with just over 8,000 voters.

It went 3 to 1 for Trump.

Sorry about the loss, but people need to learn.

4. They are getting exactly what

they voted for....odd that they aren't happy.

Oh, they thought the people losing their jobs would be "not us"....well, as they say Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

3. You get what you vote for!

You vote for the trashy garbage man, you get trashed in return. Elections have consequences.

5. I've bought alot less beef these last

six months. I tend to buy at a better price for 3-5 pounds, then I split it into 12-13 ounce portions and freeze it. I generally treat it like 1 lb portions for cottage pie, spaghetti, etc.

6. I am sorry about you losing some of your income

I hope someday this nightmare will end. If only the idiots who voted for this were affected I would be ecstatic but so many Americans who voted right will also feel the pain.

7. The ripple effect

Several family work for a company most never heard of that facilitates international money movements. They have laid off 3400 so far in the last 4 months in their US workforce. The drop in international commerce with the US means they don't need those people

There are people there with over 20 years that are being let go. Rank and file type folks and low level managers.

No one around here is hiring. Not even fast food joints. All those we hiring signs we saw during Biden are gone. We keep being told unemployment is getting lower and new jobs are off the charts.... I don't believe it.

8. on the one hand it's FAFO for anyone who voted for that assclown

on the other hand, this affects a lot of people, including lots of children, and may I say getting this news right before Thanksgiving seems especially cruel

10. Reminds me of something I said to my husband right after Schlump got elected the first time.

As he was getting ready to leave for work for the first time after the election, he commented about the people he worked with who were Trump fans, sarcastically saying, "I hope they're happy now that they got what they wanted." I replied, "Me, too. The only problem is, we're all getting it!"

I was gutted about Hillary losing, but I couldn't even begin to imagine what was in store for those next 4 years, much less that things would be even worse all these years later!

[Skittles]

12. I knew they would be very bad indeed

because the first time around, Trump was new and had handlers

this time, those folk are all gone and he is surrounded by pure Trump whores

America is paying dearly for this debacle

[Coventina]

9. If this means less cows to the slaughter, I'm happy.

Added bonus, the people got what they voted for, so they must be happy, right?

[Onama Biden Man]

11. Elections have consequences

I feel sorry for those that voted for sanity, but I’m extremely pleased that every idiot that voted for pedophile Trump are getting exactly what they voted for.
