I a sure that MAGA will adapt readily to a diet of beans and rice.

Eggs, oranges, and hamburger will become become dim memories and then stories told to MAGA children, who will refuse to believe them.

There is a profound mystery in all of this.

MAGA was told and told and told that this day would come.

Is this the day they wanted? I don't think so. So why did they let it happen?

Why bitch and moan for years about grocery prices and then make sure that those same prices went way the hell up"

Madness. Just madness. These people have to be mentally ill, all of them. They don't live in a world of cause and effect.

The news says that almost all citrus harvesting has stopped. That mostly hits the Red States. No more oranges from Arizona and no more ruby red grapefruit from Texas.

Or, at least, no more of them that MAGA can afford.

This is frankly bizarre.

MAGA voted for Donald to come raid their kitchens.

I'd advise them to make lemon aide out of lemons, but lemons are also citrus.

I wonder if MAGA knows that?

#5 zed needs his slaves!

You don't get it. I will afford oranges.

MAGA is losing it's slaves.

Of course, MAGA could all go a' picking, and get this harvest in.

I mean, these are American jobs that are now going begging for, er. Americans.

These actions will directly make life for all Americans, worse.

There will be a ripple effect.

Bad things are going to happen to MAGA and I genuinely wonder if they will understand why?

This isn't happening but they'll keep lying and telling you it is.

You do understand that the test will be scarcity and higher grocery prices?

You do know that these are readily observable and objective factor?

You do know that anyone who wants to confirm them just has to go shopping?

I look forward to your ongoing wrestling match with reality. Let us know who wins.

It was a campaign promise that if a person came here by circumventing the legal immigration policies of our country, they would be deported.

It was also a campaign promise to make it cheaper for MAGA to eat.

It's obvious that you people are squirming on the topic of food, and it's only been five days.

The worst has yet to come.

And the prisoners do the labor (harvesting crops). I don't see it as a bad idea.

#26 | Posted by lfthndthrds

But the crops are rotting NOW.

I don't see Donald flying to the rescue on this.

Uh, when does he take flight? In another few weeks it is too late.

If you can't harvest crops, the farming industry collapses.

In Texas, that means instant recession in multiple Texas counties directly.

The comes the ripple effect.

I don't think that there could be any more graphic way to show how unfit Donald and MAGA are to lead this nation than what you people are now doing to the food chain.

Y'all be stupid.

At least we wont be making slavery great again.

Except for the prisoners you want to use as forced labor.

You need to start connecting your behaviors with your other behaviors.

Some of us aren't beholden to the system. On our property we have peaches, figs, persimmons, blueberries and plums. We also have a large garden for vegetables.

Sounds like those who are beholden to the system will need to pick their own ... somewhere...

A more elitist point of view is not possible.

Glad you own some land, Buddy.

Any MAGA with a day job in the city is up ---- creek.

I wonder how they will feel about that?

This offers an insight into (some) MAGA psychology?

So this is your vision of American society?

You think your people should be raising their own beef, too?

How about manufacturing pharmaceuticals?

Who signed up for this except you?

Dead serious question: Are you saying that Americans would be better off if they were impoverished?

I'm asking because that's what I'm honestly getting from you.

Is the Orange Messiah going to feed his people, ROBSON?

When will we see his Loaves and Fishes?

On the subject of food, Donald is already proving that he does not care that you drop dead.

You actually don't listen to yourself, do you?

Must be wonderful.

Anyone collecting unemployment can harvest crops for a paycheck. Problem is liberals have grown accustomed to handouts. It's free money, after all.

Accepting that as being true (it's really quite stupid) then Donald is handing us a recession.

Your post is another MAGA example of your personal fantasies of the world arguing with the realities of the world.

So you support this Donalesque immigration disaster because you think that it will force some people you dislike to find work?

Another MAGA a few minutes ago supports it because it will force MAGA to be more self-sufficient.

Maybe you're saying the same thing?

Regardless....Recession is coming. Sound politics. Good job.

Hiring illegal immigrants is to avoid laws and regulations.

Yeah.

MAGA business owners and farmers who hire these people are the first hurt from what's happening, let's see....Today.

They'll either get a carveout from his Orangeness to avoid having their help deported, or they will take a bath financially.

But, no....Ain't nobody getting the minimum wage from these people. That's Woke.

When legal labor is not to be found then farmers need to buy a John Deere picker and planter.

How long you been a farmer, jackass?

I live with farmers and ranchers. I'm sure that they'd LOVE to hear about this magic machine of yours and what it will do for them.

For some reason you never see it advertised on TV locally. Seems.....Conspiratorial.
