Mass Deportation: this is going to be expensive

There's always a way...

Where are all these American young men and women dying to break into construction/manual labor? Also with respect to the comment about 'repurposing' border patrol agents as constructions workers, just...wow. I feel like a greater and greater percentage of posts on this forum read like satire. It's hard to tell what's a real comment and what's said in jest.

MAGA seems to have lost its way. Suspect just too many conflicting positions at this point to justify and defend.

Bit late to have this discussion now.

Maybe more focus on the actual consequences instead of the latest poll would have been worthwhile.

It's crazy how the business sector has gotten middle class people to parrot their talking points about immigrants doing jobs Americans won't. They have been cheating people out of wages and then having Americans argue for their own replacements in the workforce. Diabolical.

But this was the whole point of NAFTA and TPP. U.S. manufacturing was dying and the Hail Mary was to ensure trading partners had to comply with labor and environmental protections to even out the wage playing field. Obviously it didn’t work out and maybe it was foolish to try. At the end of the day though, it’s too expensive to manufacture in the U.S. and the global market just isn’t there.

Nah, not buying that. Anyone could easily see where that was headed from the start. American workers were sold out by our government.

And thus the corruption and jockeying for favor begins…

US farm groups want Trump to spare their workers from deportation

I wish Democrats were as hard nosed with US corporate constituencies.

+1 to this guy. Say it again for all the DCUMers in the back crowing about the cost of fruits going up

Fruits?

Deport them.

We fan defund our Ukraine funds and put a ti y portion back to deport them and their families.

Cheaper for us in the long run

There are plenty of young men willing to do it . They’re just looking for an honest wage.


Women won’t break into manual labor and never have. Even job sites now are filled with illegal alien men, not women. Minus the rare exception most women who come here don’t work and suck out of the system for benefits. My sister deals with this in VA as tons of illegals are in the school systems and the mothers are getting free diapers, food, medial care etc as poor Americans suffer.

So this argument is the democrats saying who’s going to build things just show they want to go back to their Democrat party roots. The party of slavery

I have a lady up the street from me with a Trump sign in her yard who has a lawn crew a bunch of illegal aliens in it. It was very odd watching them do leaf clean-up this fall. I’m looking forward to springtime when no one shows up to do her yard work.

Teens in our bethesda neighborhood do it for their community hours. Takes 3 hours a lot, a tarp and a rake. Bfd.

We’d pay them $20 an hour otherwise since we all have colds and can’t DIY this week. Again, BFD.

Not in my vast suburban wasteland. Mow and blow crews as far as the eye can see. A lot of trumpers are going to be buying mowers and rakes soon. They will whine and cry.

Yep, I have literally never seen a teen doing yard work for another person in my neighborhood. PP is full of it.

I have and they’d do more if they were priced out by illegals.

I willingly pay the higher rate to an American kid who is using his dad’s stuff.

I’m the only one on my block who does, the rest of the hypocrite liberals hire illegals to do theirs.

Goes to show, they hate paying a good wage or they hate Americans kids who lien hard work because their kid is fat and lazy and sits inside all day

Again I ask.
What will MAGA do if Trump grants exemptions to industry such as agriculture and TX construction?

They will excuse it. They are already giving him an excuse in advance by claiming he’s only going to deport felons. Which Biden was also doing. But somehow Trump is better because he also says mean things about immigrants and they really like that.

How are the liberals hypocrites? Seems to me all the rich people with Trump signs in their yards hiring illegals are the hypocrites.

Trump will have the news cover a few deportations and that will probably be the end of it.
