12. I suspect the Trump government will issue temporary work visa's to fill those jobs.

This will allow aliens to temporarily enter the country to work at the same jobs they may have had before, but without some of the benefits they used to have.
Probably no family will accompany them. They'll work for less, and working conditions may be worse (OSHA is going away).
Employer won't have to pay into Social Security, or any health care, or retirement funds.
And, best of all, these temporary workers will be subject to deportation at any time.
The biggest difference will be that none of these workers will ever be allowed to become citizens.
So, the nation will get all the brown and black people they need to fill those low end jobs without any chance they'll ever become voters.
This semi-slavery situation is a white supremacist's wet dream.
