As we told you yesterday, video was unearthed showing Michael Bloomberg describing exactly what he thinks about farming and farmers. Here’s the video if you missed it:

Bloomberg on why farmers can’t work in information technology

MB: “I can teach anyone how to be a farmer 1 dig a hole 2 put a seed in 3 put dirt on top 4 add water 5 up comes the corn”

Bloomberg’s comments obviously weren’t missed by VP Mike Pence:

That’s the late, great Paul Harvey narrating, and it helps make Bloomberg’s comments look even more ridiculous.

I hope this video was sent to Mike Bloomberg. He seems to think farming is easy. Those of us who have had backyard gardens know how challenging even one aspect of farming is. Deer, rabbits, snails, slugs, insects, drought, frost fight you all year. https://t.co/r2YtrIYcLh
