Blind maga cultists haven’t considered anything. They don’t realize Donnie diapers didn’t do shit for them in the four years he played golf in office. He just collected their money and gave breaks to big money people. It’s pretty sad

If any of them develops an emotional context close to empathy, they’ll be shunned and hounded out of the party as soon as it’s possible.

It’s because they’re not white. Sorry. They don’t ever complain about European immigrants. It’s the darker skinned ones they hate. Great Replacement Theory fears.

I think Florida found out that one time that everyone ran away and you couldn’t find oranges in the grocery store for a while. Also if everyone had to hire a housekeeper, gardener, etc. at real wages, people would be mad. And those are just some of the selfish reasons.

According to a family member, immigrants drive up healthcare costs because they don’t have insurance, and they go to the ER if they so much as stub a toe and get special treatment that “normal citizens” (read: white people) don’t. This is why her Medicare plan sucks ass somehow…?
Don’t even bother telling her it’s not true; her best friend is a nurse and sees it at the hospital every day. Are you calling Tammi a liar??? 🙄
So yeah, the only things MAGAs have to complain about are xenophobic lies and propaganda. Straight up outrage bait all the way down, and it works by short circuiting the part of their tiny minds devoted to rational thought. It is so frustrating.

Immigration drives down wages across the entire workforce. It’s supply and demand. And no, immigration is not “brown” people. It’s everyone from H1 visas to Canadians who got lost on their way to the beach.
You know what has the strongest impact on inflation? Labours share of GDP. Imagine the economy produces 100 eggs. As wages increase more and more people are fighting for that same resource. Give a billionaire an extra billion and the demand for eggs doesn’t change.
There is a reason wages grow at 3 percent and the stock market grows at 8. Trump’s economic plan of mass deportations would be a disaster for the economy. But that doesn’t mean the other guy isn’t fucking you over as well.
My parents reasoning is that they “don’t want to be minorities”.
‘Nuff said. 🙃

They made my sister’s life so much better. Her ex-husband was a building contractor. He would have his foreman hire illegal labor to build his projects because at the time he could pay them $5 an hour when the going union rate was $20 an hour. At the end of the project, he and the foreman would calculate how much was saved in this manner, and the foreman would get an under-the-table cash bonus of half that amount. SOURCE: My mother, who lived under the same roof as them in a “granny unit” and had a bad habit of eavesdropping.
The family had extra money for things like a big boat for water-skiing and a big pickup to tow it to and from the lake. I found this to be somewhat odd, since on the Central Coast there are numerous good surfing points, and surfing actually requires fitness and is a good workout, as opposed to being dragged around by a boat, but one doesn’t get to show off one’s wealth as much.
He also had plenty of money to build her a home as part of their divorce settlement, a home she lived in for 20 years and then sold for a price in excess of one million dollars. Because her housing was paid for, her current husband was able to purchase a home to rent out for additional income.
Building contractor ex is of course Republican – he holds fund-raisers these days where they talk about banning the folks who made his business so profitable, but he no longer cares – he isn’t a contractor, he’s an “investor” now. Current husband is a retired prison guard and also Republican. And she, being a Good Devoted Christian Wife, is Republican, too.

Fear-mongering with a gallon of racism and misogyny on top, that’s the recipe for GOP hot dish.

Here’s how immigration and free trade negatively impacts you: https://www.epi.org/publication/charting-wage-stagnation/
