If 457 deports all of the "illegals" AND puts his crazy %25 percent tariffs in place... - Harbourmaster - 12-12-2024
how long will it take for grocery prices to SKYROCKET?
From the data I can find online, most farmers are already suffering a neer %50 shortage of labor.
Additionally, approximately HALF of all fruits and nuts sold in the USA are imported from Mexico, as well as %90 of avocados!
There will be a lot more to complain about than the price of eggs that's for sure!

Trump’s policies would hurt the US while boosting most other economies
Anjali V. Bhatt (PIIE), Megan Hogan (Former PIIE), Warwick J. McKibbin (PIIE) and Marcus Noland (PIIE)
The Peterson Institute for International Economics
The authors find that Trump’s policies would hurt US households and businesses by lowering employment and fueling higher inflation, hitting hardest the agricultural and durable goods manufacturing sectors because they rely on global trade and investment.https://www.piie.com/blogs/realtime-economics/2024/trumps-policies-would-hurt-us-while-boosting-most-other-economies
“In sum,” they write, “while Trump promises to ‘make the foreigners pay,’ our analysis shows his policies will end up making Americans pay the most.”

he just needs some photo-ops to say he did it. it could be 12 people.
remember, it's always happening "somewhere else," so it is perfectly normal if you don't see it in your town.

Our city will grind to a halt if he actually does it. I don't think he will. I don't see any way it would benefit him.

Pretty much.
A few high profile raids, then claim that he kept his promise.
Trump only knows how to lie. Even if he did deport millions, he would say he deported billions.
He did this on day one...My inauguration crowd was the biggliest, ever. Never seen before!

His need to claim everything he does is the best ever, the biggest ever, like never seen before, is so sad and pathetic and super duper irritating.
