Someone........someone........anyone.......
Oh wait. Would you settle for everyone?
Votes Trump even after this.
Something something, judge a tree by its fruits, something something.
Also, lumber empire?
... 50 employees?
Weyerhauser would laugh, if they even knew this person existed.
Dumbest people on earth
To hear nature in a sawmill instead of machines… for any lumberman, that’s unnatural
This man hated nature so much that he made a career out of cutting it down, apparently. He heard birds instead of chainsaws for the first time and freaked out
I'm not saying he deserves that, ofk he doesn't. But I'm not really good with multitasking. And I'm already too busy feeling like shit for all the poor people who didn't even had the chance to vote and was separated from their family, or lost it all, just because dumbass people like him belived that "they" were the problem. So, good luck.
If you were confused (like me) as to how a lumber mill in the US was hurt by tariffs on foreign countries — they were importing their trees from Canada. Plenty of trees in the US, but I guess they’re all spoken for. 🤷♂️
“The U.S. lumber sector is reeling from tariffs on Canadian softwood, which have climbed to 45%. With roughly 30% of its supply coming from Canada”
Never get to read any of the "I voted for Trump, now I've got a six figure income bashing in the heads of migrants and doing a little light child sex trafficking on the side. Life has never been better" articles, even though I'm confident there's at least as many of the latter.
If this guy can't turn a profit in an unprecedented period of unregulated clear cutting and skyrocketing lumber prices... Idk. Maybe he just didn't want it enough.
But this fiction of the "Sad Trumper" has got to be tempered by reality. There's a line around the block of Andrew Tates and Changpeng Zhaos who are loving a fellow scammer nonce in the White House.

Its ICE hires, they just wont put their names on it
They won't put their names on themselves.
You have my logs and leafs bro.
Hope they end up homeless
Or having to work in the lumber mill when it gets its new owner.

Not LAMF unless there is evidence he supported tariffs, which there isn't.
LAMF is not merely 'the person you voted for won and then did a thing that negatively affected you'.
