U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday he is willing to let migrant laborers stay in the United States if the farmers they work for will vouch for them.
At a campaign-style speech at the Iowa state fairgrounds, Trump said he is working with the Homeland Security Department to help farmers who depend on migrant laborers for their seasonal needs. He said he will also work with the hotel industry on the issue.
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.
