Trump visited Wisconsin to reassure farmers hard-hit by tariffs and the economic fallout of the US-Israeli war with Iran. The visit comes months before the midterm elections in November. Trump was seeking to bolster support for Republican Rep Derrick Van Orden. The administration has sought to offset the fallout with temporary aid packages. At the same time, fertiliser costs have surged since the US and Israel launched the war with Iran on February 28. The average gas price of $4.04 per gallon of petrol this week was also $1.08 higher than a year ago.
