Do any of these three clowns know that the president was 100% correct?
There is nothing bizarre about this if you know literally anything about farming today, or have access to Google, Yahoo, Bing, or another variety of search engine. https://t.co/iTzDBbZZEG

This is an issue in Iowa right now that Vox could be explaining to its readers, but nah:
The president is discussing the legitimate issue of lacking broadband in rural farming areas for farmers wanting to use new-age, precision farming equipment that require that internet access. https://t.co/1q6oNKQFwn

Here’s a good starting point for Vox and friends: “Internet of tractors: how sensors and software improve farming accuracy.”
Beyond parody: some Vox millennial has never heard of tractors using the Internet, so he proclaims the notion "bizarre" based on his vast wealth of agricultural expertise. Meanwhile, it's not bizarre at all. https://t.co/AVZldF7YfK https://t.co/mHYNaaS1Vj
