    The fact Trump would fuck with our food supply this much pisses me off to no extent. These “illegals” work harder than most Americans and still believe in the dream. They are exactly the kind of immigrants we need in this country.

      It’s fucking in 2 ways.

      One is to deport, which will cause labor shortages.

      Second are the tariffs, will make imported food (and we import a lot of it from Mexico) more expensive.

      It looks like the deportation will force us to import more and at higher prices due to tariffs.

      And he supposedly won, because price of eggs was high last year due to flu.

      Yup. The Democrats really love an underclass working in their fields. Whether it’s slaves, black people under Jim crow, or illegal immigrants, the Democrats never change.

        In California we gave them drivers license. Made sure they got paid well and had breaks with restrooms near. They got health insurance and their kids went to school. In return they improved our cities, our economy and paid taxes. This is the legacy of democratic reform. In Texas or Florida they are treated like dirt, the only way a republican knows how to treat someone.
