单集文稿 ...

  • A few months back, a reporter asked President Trump if he was feeling pressure

  • to make a deal with Iran because the war has made life more expensive for Americans.

  • And Trump said, quote, not even a little bit.

  • It was one of those moments, if you don't like Trump, it confirms some things.

  • If you do like Trump, maybe you could let it slide.

  • But reporting and polling tell us one group of Trump supporters is having an especially hard time letting this slide.

  • And that is farmers.

  • Trump's war and Trump's tariffs are walloping American farmers.

  • For a decade, they've tended to vote Trump and vote Republican.

  • But this year, with razor-thin margins determining who's going to win Congress, farm country is up for grabs.

  • And the Democrats would like to grab it.

  • That's coming up on Today Explained from Fox.

  • You know that feeling.

  • Too many updates, too many meetings, too many things falling through the cracks.

  • Monday.com was built for that gap.

  • The AI work platform designed from the ground up for people and agents to work side by side and deliver more together.

  • Drafting the brief, flagging risks, running a competitive scan, your agent can do it all.

  • And the best part, anyone can build one.

  • Even you.

  • Try it.
