the son of friends is a lobbyist in DC..wait wait hold the hate..who represents fruit / veg growers nationwide… desperate for migrants and other legal workers. he helps other smaller groups willing and able to provide housing, food, schools, Dr.s etc for workers families. Few big corporate farm owners work as hard to get reliable

help to tend the crops we all want. politics must stop making all border issues a wasteful, harmful game. VOTE BLUE

That is funny. 😂😆😂. That is really funny and creative. Kudos!

See here's the thing. During the pandemic there was a supply chain issue with the world shutting down. Supply and demand raised the prices. That is the principle... Supply and demand. So then corporations raised their prices. Now the problem is they liked the profits. So they think offering smaller qualities of food and charging more was a good idea. They're making bank. They don't want to go back to pre pandemic prices and to be fair. It's called Greed. Just think when the immigrants come over here. A good majority to work in the fields and pick the vegetables in the fruit. Working the meat packing plants. Doing construction. Many go back home when the season is over. JS

I could go on...

Sure he does! Look up Project 2025 and you shall see his ONLY policy proposals . . . besides TANKING the world economy by letting 90% of it's crops die of course.

While 2025 is a Conservative project and does agree with Trump's ideas, it's not his baby. Read the attached article for the specifics.

I work for King Soopers aka Kroger Corporation. I have seen first hand how grocery prices have risen dramatically. In addition, we have had to put cosmetics in locked cabinets and the laundry aisle in locked cabinets to prevent shop lifting. When I hear the page for customer assistance I have to immediately drop what I am doing (I bag groceries) and hurry to unlock a cabinet for a customer. This goes on all day. I have watched Donald Trump for about ten years now and I know very well that he is bad news and has always been so. Yes, Donnie has policies but they are for him and his cronies. Damn him and his greedy, power mad friends to hell.

This really hits the mark. And if you think grocery prices are high now, just wait until the farm workers get deported. Well hello inflation! Trump is an idiot. But he’s just a puppet. With the level of dementia he’s exhibiting, he will not be making the decisions. Ideologues and extreme bigots will be making the decisions, and it won’t be what’s good for the country or its citizens.

People don’t understand. He does not care.

Easy: Without food, 75% of the countryty will DIE! [sic] Ironically, the FIRST to go will be Bunkerboy's treasonous deathcult members, as they are all destitute.

Wait.... don't forget, Trump has a "Concept", except it has nothing to do with making America great again because America was already pretty good until he stuck his stupid, no brain, dumb ass into it. We gotta get rid of him, big time !!!

Everyone whose forefathers were immigrants raise your hand. Raise your other hand if you ever knew of anyone who was an immigrant. I understand that quotas are important but out of the immigrants today, how many are serial murders? How many of them are as bad as trump? How many of them try to come over with their children? How many of these immigrants have come onto your property and stolen everything you own? How many of these immigrants are fleeing places where they and their families stand a real chance of being shot in their native country? Is it abnormal to want one’s child to grow up in safety? Underneath the “immigration problem” are actual, living, breathing humans. Immigrants that are not trying to “horn in” on white jobs. Immigrants that come into the USA wanting the dignity of working at the jobs no white would dream of doing and not even thinking about trying to “sponge” off the white man’s welfare system. People who want to raise their children and take care of grandma and sleep undisturbed at night. In the USA of hate today, people speak of immigrants as sub-human and as those who should be “shot” for illegally coming into this country. This hate is trump’s doing and republican’s ideology. Theirs is a legacy of hate.

Whenever I read about "deporting the undocumented," it always occurs to me: aren't we lucky that that possibility never occurred to the native dwellers we found here?
