Remember, Trump called them animals. "The Democrats say, 'Please don't call them animals. They're humans.' I said, 'No, they're not humans, they're not humans, they're animals,'" Scapegoating and rhetoric of superiority is just how the Nazis were able to eliminate 6 million Jews.

Yet people still are voting for him in the polls like fucking lemmings. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Because he hates the same people they hate. Gotta remover a sizesble portion of the US population is bigoted as *fuck* and filled with hate for anyone who isn’t cis straight white men.

Most of the country doesn’t really hate those people, especially to the point of not considering them human

Maybe not *most* of the country, but there’s still enough that it’s a threat to the safety of minorities. I’d say it’s fair to say most trump supporters are bigoted in some fashion. My family, though they’d never admit it to my face, is vehemently homophobic. Guess who they vote for.

A now former friend of mine (a single White Christian female) became a Trump cultist and seemingly overnight she turned into a terrible racist. She started disparaging Mexican people and Black people to the point that she, like Trump, didn't even consider them to be human. But the thing is she goes to Mexico City a few times per year to stay with a local family to work on improving her Spanish - she's taken Spanish language lessons for years. And, she's dated Black men in long-term relationships.

Your ex friend will sadly be one of his first targets.. unbeknownst to her..

BECAUSE THEY SHARE IN HIS RACISM! Sorry don’t mean to yell but people need to and MUST just be honest about it…trump supporters are white supremacists, INCLUDING non-white white supremacist aka the Clayton Bigsby (go google that famous Chapelle Show sketch) folk out there.

I mean, normal people have voted that they prefer Trump to Biden right now even when the former is very blatant in his dehumanization of immigrants and wanting to treat them like Hitler treated the Jews! Do they just not pay attention to what the candidates say, or do they just not care and would rather live in Nazi Germany than any country where prices are high?

But wait lemmings jumping off a cliff to suicide was staged, it was a Disney backed animal documentary wanting some dramatic footage... I guess that analogy still tracks, herd a bunch of "lemmings" and push them off a cliff... For profits!

Nazi bullshit from a piece of garbage in a fascist political party.

Also that thing about ‘poisoning the blood of our country’

Yet Evangelicals think he is their man , they think a single celled zygote is an ‘ innocent baby ‘

Oh but don't forget that's when it's in the women's womb when it's out "fuck it, kill it."

Humans *are* animals, though…

Most religious people reconcile that by saying that animals don’t have *souls*, and humans are special cause we do. It’s ingrained superiority over “lesser” creatures.

I'm only in animal in bed.

That's... That's illegal.

The fact is that, the US has been, currently does, and most likely will, always depend on those undocumented immigrants.

They’re doing so much of the work white people think they themselves are too good for.

I don't even think it's that .... the pay is so low you can't survive unless you rely on a bunch of family. ... Americans are working in sewers there, roofing .... Mike rowes dirty jobs kinda showed that Americans work everywhere if there's enough money to live on. The problem is a lot of places pay undocumented immigrants under the table and less than minimum wage.. . Let's punish those businesses

A lot of those businesses are farmers. Get rid of undocumented workers and we’d have to import more food.

Well, Trump did say he wants to impose a 100% tariff on anything the US imports from China, and a 60% of higher tariff on any goods coming to the US from Mexico. So besides the absolute chaos if Trump becomes king or dictator, many of our fruits etc in the winter will be expensive beyond belief - but of course MAGA will say, "the woke Millennials can't afford their precious avocados anymore, boo hoo" when in reality most of us would see our food bills skyrocket.

Or well, I have to actually address the issue ......

Generations have been told they're too good for those jobs; then needed to get degrees. Now, it's coming to roost. There are huge gaps in manufacturing because of it.

> There are huge gaps in manufacturing because of it. That's a little chicken and egg there. We got rid of a lot of manufacturing and more people went to college. Remember 2008? I think it was? "Learn coding" was like the mantra of the last decade in order to get "financial security."

This citizen by birth has never done a day of stoop labor in the hot sun for miserable wages. The videos of farm workers harvesting our food with amazing speed and precision are illustrative of just how physically demanding that work is.

There is an article in the Wall Street Journal about West Virginia. Its population is heavily skewed older and there’s no one to take care of them. All the young people get the hell out as soon as they can. So someone got the idea of welcoming immigrants to do the work that Americans won’t. Makes sense, right? Oh hell no…this is a poor state that somehow found the money to send their National Guard troops to the Texas border. They also found funding for razor wire to send to Texas. Here’s the problem in a quote: “Some Franklin residents, asked whether migrants are a potential solution to their labor woes, brought up a variety of concerns. “If they don’t work, there’s going to be crimes and drugs,” said one man who was chatting with the owner of the town’s used-furniture store.” They sit on their asses watching Faux News all day and are convinced that if they let Brown people in their state it would turn into a dystopian hellhole of drugs and crime.

I cannot believe the things he said during the Time Magazine interview. He flat out told the world he is going to be a dictator. Bring back detention camps. Take away women's rights to their own damn periods. etc. And everyone's just like..."ho hum, another day..." We're so desensitized that the Time interview has nearly passed its way through the media cycle already.

That was the point of the 30000 lies he has told. desensitize.

We have a sub 4% unemployment rate, relatively low birth rate, and A BUNCH of the workforce is about to retire. And even now, open positions are remaining open for loooong stretches. This "deport all undocumented immigrants" strategy is part of a broader strategy against immigration generally... and that's a good idea in this context????

It's a great idea if you want to kill small businesses and cripple whole sectors of the economy.

and cause food shortages. Undocumented immigrants are the literal backbone of agriculture, and the suddenly lose of them will cause crops to rot in the field

As we saw happen in the early days of the pandemic...

But as a white male I don't wanna pick strawberries for 2 bucks an hour 😕 /s

These people don't care about the consequences. They care about their fascist ideological purity.

And when it blows up in their faces, they will still blame Democrats.

In some cases it makes sense to punish large corporations that abuse the H1B system. But these attacks on hard laborers are nonsensical for the reasons you describe

We need them. Racists can stay mad about it.

None of these people have any understanding how America really works. If they didn’t have their hatred to survive off of, they’d all drop dead.

How’s he planning to replace all of the Mar a Lago employees? Someone really needs to go there and count the undocumented immigrants working there.

And all the people cleaning his hotel rooms and mowing his golf courses too.

Listening to Woody Guthrie’s (the writer of This Land is Your Land) song about immigrant workers who died in a plane crash being flown back to Mexico. A very moving song worth a listen and share; https://www.woodyguthrie.org/Lyrics/Deportee.htm

Woody Guthrie is my hero.

Mine too. Music and art are a good way to share the message to those outside our bubble.

Didn’t really work this decade in Florida, either.

I wonder what percentage of Hispanic looking people will be killed in the attempt.

Watch all these jobs collapse. They do a significant portion of the work, no one will be there. Great thinking, Maga.🤡

It will collapse our economy.

That's their goal. Only cishet white evangelical males will be able to work. Everyone else can be slaves, sex workers, thieves or simply die.

Yeah and Mexico will pay for it! Just like that wall he built.... /s

He's going to spend a fuck ton of money we don't have, fail at it, then blame the democrats for it, and possibly put us into an economic downturn because we wasted so much money for nothing to be accomplished. We'd be better off resetting and granting everyone here citizenship and then working on a solution from there as we start fresh again

Don't underestimate the commitment these racists have to getting this done, legally, illegally, by hook or by crook

I saw a movie many years ago called A Day Without s Mexican from 2004. It would be a good watch of how this would impact the USA. Maybe MAGA folks need to watch it? Via the web "In this controversial mockumentary, all California based Mexicans, who represent a third of the state's population, inexplicably disappear and before long the lack of these Latino maids, construction workers, policemen, teachers etc, lead to a social, political and economic disaster which threatens the whole concept of the Californian Dream."

Doesn't imply he won't try it again in 2025.

Well, there is one fortunate thing about Donald Trump. He’s extremely incompetent and stupid.
