The spoiled, only-child trust fund kid who grew up in urban Georgetown, got an $80,000 Poli Sci degree from his parents, lied about being rancher for the last three years and just fell ass backwards into a lotto ticket for a ‘job’ he is totally unqualified for, is out there yapping delusions to left-wing rags and peppering his interviews with a lot of “aint’s” to really lay the “rural dude” bullshit on thick:
I would love to see provisions passed that anything served at our public schools, for instance, must be from Texas farmers, Texas ranchers and processed by Texans as well.
We’ll, of course, make exceptions for things we can’t grow here. We ain’t growing bananas in Texas, right? But everything else, if it can be grown here, it should be. And if it can be processed here, it should as well.
He’s also suggesting some more retarded, unworkable and far-left ideas:
#1 – Apparently Sid Miller was not a big fan of handing free tax money (grants) to any farms or or business that employ (or are owned by) anyone on an H-1B visa. Will Tucker the open-borders-loving socialist continue that policy?
“We will be having discussions about that. We haven’t made a commitment one way or the other, but that is something that my team and I will be looking into. And if we decide to reverse it, we will.“
That is commie speak for “we will be reversing that because we ALWAYS put browns and foreigners above white people born in America.” I will bet my HOUSE on that. Just watch and see.
#2 – His hard-on for hemp and his delusions about hemp’s wonder powers continues unabated. After telling the interviewer “actually, the first diesel motors were made to run off hemp diesel” (that is completely false) he babbles about building hemp diesel refineries here in Texas. LOL.
“Actually, the first diesel motors were made to run off hemp diesel. So that could even be an option that we could look into. We’re limited on how many diesel refineries we can build, but we might be able to build hemp diesel refineries a little bit easier as a backup option.“
Never mind that hemp oil diesel is not even close to economically viable. At current seed oil yields (about 2%) hemp diesel would cost well over $20 per gallon using even the most optimistic assumptions. That is exactly why it doesn’t exist right now.
Do you see that? Just two very quick Google searches told us the HEAD of the TEXAS AG DEPARTMENT is 100% wrong about hemp oil being used in the first engines and also tells us that hemp oil diesel is not even close to being viable by any stretch of the imagination.
Yes, producing biodiesel directly from hemp seed oil typically costs over $20 to $25 per gallon just for the raw oil input, making it economically non-viable as a mainstream fuel compared to standard fossil diesel or conventional agricultural biofuels like soy and canola.
Even soy and canola oil make more sense! We ALSO know from recent history (thanks Willie Nelson) that the idea is retarded and will result in disaster, economically.
Yet there is our illegitimate, incompetent, retarded, socialist Ag Commissioner confidently telling outrageous bullshit to an equally retarded ‘journalist.’ Is he too stupid to use Google for basic research? Is he so stupid he doesn’t know about the Willie Nelson fiasco? Or is he so stupid he thinks the math doesn’t matter and his willpower alone will make it work?
One of those options is true and that shows he has ZERO business being in charge of massive piles of money. He’s like a chimp with a machine gun.
Also, hemp is legal in Texas RIGHT NOW (has been for seven years) and there are over 1,000 licensed producers…yet this hemp miracle still hasn’t taken place!
Why doesn’t Comrade Clayton cover his grandma’s property (where he pretends to farm) with hemp and get rich, if it is such a good deal?? He’s basically saying everyone who lives in West Texas with property is a moron for not planting hemp right now and selling it as a crop. He’s telling us there are $100 bills lying all over the place and everyone but him is too stupid to pick them up.
Unlikely.
Instead, maybe Texas ISN’T the best place to grow hemp, even though Tucker labors under the delusion that it is. Let’s ask the Internet why more hemp isn’t grown in Texas:
More hemp is not grown in Texas due to a mix of extreme weather and high operating costs.
Key Challenges for Texas Hemp Farmers
- Harsh Droughts and Climate: Severe Texas droughtshave disproved early claims that hemp is drought-tolerant.Triple-digit heat and dry conditions harden the soil, stunt growth, and cause widespread crop failures. [1, 2]
- High Input and Seed Costs: Purchasing specialized seeds costs anywhere from $1,200 to $3,500 per acre. Many imported varieties (such as those from China or the EU) suffer from photoperiod sensitivity, causing them to flower too early in Texas and stunt stem or grain growth. [1, 2, 3]
- Market Oversupply and Price Crashes: Early overproduction of CBD and hemp flower caused market values to crater, leaving many producers losing money or abandoning the crop. [1, 2]
Yeah, but the unemployed Poli Sci major who lives with his parents and has never even planted a GARDEN knows better than everyone! He’s ready to waste millions of YOUR dollars on a boondoggle that will make ethanol look like a brilliant idea.
At the end of the day, EVERYTHING comes down to math – and Comrade Clayton pays zero attention to math. He’s never had to. That’s why I made such a big stink about him never running a business and living with his parents. He has NO CLUE how the real world operates and this hemp idiocy is just another example that proves me right.
He’s an absolute disaster. Hope all you dumb old ladies are happy with your vote.
