As the raids ramp up with the Department of Homeland Security skipping over taking into custody purported gang members the Trump administration proclaimed would be its focus, ICE instead has been raiding restaurants, farms, car washes, Home Depot parking lots and manufacturing facilities and sweeping up workers creating economic turmoil.
On Truth Social, the president offered no solutions and instead took a jab at employers.
According to the president, "Our great Farmers and people in the Hotel and Leisure business have been stating that our very aggressive policy on immigration is taking very good, long time workers away from them, with those jobs being almost impossible to replace."
He then added, "In many cases the Criminals allowed into our Country by the VERY Stupid Biden Open Borders Policy are applying for those jobs. This is not good. We must protect our Farmers, but get the CRIMINALS OUT OF THE USA. Changes are coming!"

(24,332 posts)I grew up in Massachusetts, the home of 100 degree summers with 100% humidity. My father did outdoor groundskeeping work under those conditions, and sometimes I went along and helped him. I am "reasonably" familiar with the conditions farm workers face, and no...I don't think there's a dangerous criminal on earth who'd do the work I did helping my dad, OR picking lettuce.

(24,332 posts)...he's an adjudicated rapist who also was convicted on 34 felony counts. But he has a lot on his mind. I'm sure he just forgot, because he was so busy making America great again, again.
I type stuff like that out of sarcasm and then go back and read it and realize 100% of what I typed was true (except the part about making anything "great"
and I'm just gobsmacked and stunned.

(24,332 posts)Maybe his term was "broken borders"...I can't remember...but he was the king of "OOOGA BOOGA!" when it came to scaring the intellectually dull folks out there about the menace of immigrants. Built his career on it.
