Chicken farmers who considered themselves staunch Trump supporters say their worsening circumstances since he took office are making them reconsider their votes.
Mike Weaver, a West Virginia farmer, said he gave up raising chickens this year after the company wanted him to waive his right to sue something the Obama administrations rules would have prevented.
I made excuses for him for a while, thinking hes going to eventually get a grasp on the dire situation small family farmers are in, Weaver said of Trump. It hasnt happened yet. If it doesnt happen by the next election, Im going to tell everybody some of the promises he made were never kept and I dont see it changing.

It's too bad that you didn't realize it at the time. But you have an opportunity to correct your mistakes. Go forth and sin no more!!!
