Its a little bit late to be chickening out here, as Texan farms report they have lost 100% of their workforces already, and Californian farms (where most of our food is grown) have reported losing over 75% of their workforce. You cant just undo the fear that has already been struck into people, no one has faith they wont change their minds again in 2 weeks…

He knows. His goal is to weaken the US - the things that fuck us the hardest are followed by a too-little-too-late backstep probably to feed his base some plausible deniability, but his actions are pretty clear to anyone who isn't already either lying to themselves or delighting in the evil.
He is a domestic enemy of the US.
and a weakened US will embrace any dictator that promises to come in and fix it
Never underestimate the power of the TACO 🌮
Don't worry, probably the next unpredicted (because they're short staffed if still there) freak storm of the century will wipe out any remaining crops. So... I guess a problem that will get solved by itself.
So now farmers can say “either you this or I withdraw my support and you’ll end up in chains”
Where did I heard of a similar situation? 🤔

Make Slavery Great Again. SMDH
Yeah, I bet they'll start using the people in ICE detention for free labour. It's even technically legal according to the 13th amendment.
Like any laws matter anymore ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I mean, a normal Supreme Court would probably baulk at the bit about 'punishment for a crime' not applying to illegal immigration, bit this one would definitely rubber stamp this.
He stopped ice from raiding farms and hotels a couple weeks ago, it was in the news.
Then ICE resumed doing those things.
Would you believe him this time? I wouldn’t. He’s a lying flip flopping TACO.
rules for thee, but not for me (or those who give me money)
More like he's being literal. Migrants can stay at their place of work. But he doesn't want to see them anywhere else.
The government made up of the people is supposed to decide on these things. Not a single fucking person... allowing people to stay or not. Fuck this dictator shit.
And construction? And service industry? And ... ?
Nobody knew labor could be so complicated!
It could never have been predicted!
But what about me getting a job on the farm?
Asks the starving republican with 8 kids who can’t collect Government assistance any longer.
Oh, fuck! Wait, we still need the wage-slaves?
No.
They're going back to just plain ole slavery.
Why is Biden allowing illegals come across our border and take our jobs? Can't they pass a law forcing 13 year olds to work the fields? What about our new bounty of concentration camp campers as slave labor? With all OUR TAX money tRump is raking in with tariffs, can't we just hire Mexicans to come up here?
🌮
One of the video quotes from Trump says the farmers will be responsible for (and “own”) them.
Why would you allow this Orange Turd when you tell us all the time that these people are the scum of the earth?
