(Reuters) - U.S. farm industry groups want President-elect Donald Trump to spare their sector from his promise of mass deportations, which could upend a food supply chain heavily dependent on immigrants in the United States illegally.

Bet you almost all of them.
The resulting food hoarding will make the panic buying of toilet paper look like child's play
Expecting a big show of deporting some immigrants that committed crimes
Beyond that, and they're playing with fire
You get what you paid for Big Ag and billionares that bought an American President.
Mass deportation is going to be disastrous to our economy. If you need a new roof on your house or some landscaping done, do it now. Anything requiring manual labor is going to get very, very expensive if you can find anyone to do it at all.
He will stage a big deportion media event, and much like his rallies, the camera angles will make it look huge. Fox and the other RW outlets will run it ad nauseum (trot it out regularly to make it seem ongoing) and the sheep will eat it up.
Oooooohhhhh the price of lettuce!!!!
As high marginal-propensity consumers, they spur economic activity beyond their numbers.
We benefit.
'Border Security' is another so-called 'conservative' MacGuffin = next to worthless plot device.
In reality the precious waste-based US economy requires floods of immigrants to buy useless stuff or else.
They voted for this! Between the tariffs and no labor force they are cooked! Oh well…
loyalists and subservient business sectors.
Trump couldn't care less about the American people.
EVERYTHING TRUMP DOES IS ABOUT SELF ENRICHMENT.
After all, these are the jobs that illegals took from Americans.
