Unintended consequences...

[pdq]

Trump is doing just what he said he would do, right? ...Well, except for putting Hillary Clinton in jail, replacing Obamacare on day one, suing all those nasty women that made up lies about him groping them, releasing his taxes, not settling his Trump U suit...

But he'll remember about getting rid of all those Messicans, right?

Um. His supporters hope not:

Jeff Marchini and others in the Central Valley here bet their farms on the election of Donald J. Trump. His message of reducing regulations and taxes appealed to this Republican stronghold, one of Mr. Trump’s strongest bases of support in the state.

As for his promises about cracking down on illegal immigrants, many assumed Mr. Trump’s pledges were mostly just talk. But two weeks into his administration, Mr. Trump has signed executive orders that have upended the country’s immigration laws. Now farmers here are deeply alarmed about what the new policies could mean for their workers, most of whom are unauthorized, and the businesses that depend on them...

Approximately 70 percent of all farmworkers here are living in the United States illegally, according to researchers at University of California, Davis. The impact could reverberate throughout the valley’s precarious economy, where agriculture is by far the largest industry...

Nobody could have foreseen there might be problems getting rid of all those rapists, huh?

I went to the dentist today and opened my mouth not for the hygienist but to say "People are dumb thinking all the stuff Trump is signing is law"….my dentist and Hyggienist said "we voted for Trump and are really happy with him".

Well, you don't argue with a dentist poking around in your mouth.miley-shocked003:

Yeah, wait until Trump slaps a 35% tariff on goods crossing the southern border.

Maquiladoras, adios!

High produce prices and empty shelves won't bother our billionaire leaders.

I fear this may be how the "revolution" begins... fully turning the United States into a autocratic regime... remove the workers who would harvest the food, inducing famine in one of the most food-secure nations on the planet (and possibly cascading effects around the world) thus destabilizing otherwise sound economies, while the businesspeople hem and haw about not being able to do anything because their profits are way up.
