This is a hopeful and interesting technology, but it insanely early to be making multi-million purchase deals at this point. Research grants yes, but this technology is currently barely achievable in the lab, and the current main feed-stock to grow lab meat (Fetal Bovine Serum) makes lab meat exponentially more expensive than a hunk of cow right now.
I'm not saying that we may get to the point were lab meat is less expensive, but the technical challenge is similar to Fusion power, 20 years ago. Even alternatives to FSB cost ~$3000-$4000 a liter.
Here is a problem that I see with forgiving, rather than stereotyping, the trump voters.
Many Trump voters willingly gulped down false facts and embraced domination over those that tried to make their lives better rather than face concepts that made them uncomfortable. Thousands of trump voters will probably lose the only heath care that is keeping them alive rather than reaching out to those who tried to help them, at great political cost and pain.
How do you reach out to those who have only said that they want to kill and plow your ideas into the earth for the arrogance of saying that there is another way? That is not forgiveness, that is, to paraphrase the republicans, a suicide pact.
