Although drump has “exempted” certain migrants from being deported, they’re not returning to work. For good reason. He lies. They don’t trust him. Only a fool would. These migrants are not fools.

I promise though when all these hard working very important honest people stop showing up for work,and so many other things. It's going to bite him and that treasonous bunch of Republican leaders in the House,and Senate right in the ASS.
You act like all legal USA citizens came here documented. Trump’s own grandfather on his dad’s side was undocumented. It used to be that an undocumented person only had to show up on a census canvass to become documented. The Ellis Island fantasy is just that, a fantasy.
you know better than this. Being Native American, I think all immigrants are illegal, But I know better than that. Post WW2 is different then pre WW2. Immigrants were no longer welcome just to enter the United States, just because they wanted a handout .
Recent undocumented immigrants are not here for handouts. There are teams of proof that they get no government assistance and pay social security and Medicare taxes that they will never benefit from. Your status as Native American does not excuse you having your head shoved up your ass on facts.
An immense number of Whites entered the country undocumented prior to WWII, those people then had children often large families. There are lots of American families who originated from ancestors that entered undocumented, Trump is part of one such family. USA immigration has been a mess.
People of all ethnic groups are in the country undocumented. There are plenty of Russian people here who are undocumented. The 5th and 14th Amendments dictate that EVEN IF a person is not here via a documented route, that they get hearings to determine whether they stay.
Not to argue - some did, some didn’t. But if not for the migrants, where would we be? I don’t see now nor have I ever seen a white person filling in these jobs. And we’re still paying for the last time it happened. I will never hold it against anyone coming here for a better life.
You'd either have to increase pay for those jobs or increase legal immigration. But then the US business class, & US govt., wouldn't have a permanent underclass of exploitable workers to keep wages artificially low & reduce the bargaining power of the working class.
Exactly. Migrant workers work mostly in horrible conditions for so very little pay. They are lucky if they get decent housing on a ranch, a compassionate employer. It varies. Migrants don’t have a voice. They do the hardest work anyway for the least amount of respect or appreciation
He doesn't care. He thought groceries was an old fashioned word. He'll just easily pay more when prices for food jump, because no one here to harvest, roof, landscape. Etc..
True. Don’t think he’s ever had to step foot into a grocery store - except for that ridiculous time to hand out $. He sure doesn’t know what it’s like to budget or penny pinch his way through a month or to be hungry. And what do you bet sho works for him at marolardo?
He has changed his mind again, now they are exempt again. He likely got reports on the effects on the economy. Still does not prevent ICE from stopping vehicles and taking brown or black immigrants.
He had terrorized them. They won’t be back for a long time, if ever. And the others I worry about - those trying to do the right thing then getting arrested. There’s no limits to the evil here.
General strike of migrant workers would be fun to watch.
Imagine how nasty the already failing Bedminster Country Club would become. It already failed the health inspection earlier this spring.
Wow! It failed inspection? Who was brave enough to do that? And I was wondering about his hires. How many migrants working at his establishments. Guess ice is off limits to them?
Trust isn’t restored by convenience.
You can’t spend years demonizing people, then expect them to rebuild your economy when it suits you.
They’re not fools. They remember.
