Oh good, now the magats can go get the black and brown jobs they so whined about . Cause they will not have a lot of money after his 20% tariffs that will also cost them a shite load of more money at the store. He who laughs last laughs best as they say. ??

Damn Shame. I get that immigration need to get under control, but this will strongly effect our economy along with Trump tax and tariff policies. Time to slow down your personal spending and prepare for the inflation.

How many of the IGNORANT Latinos who want to be MEGA White was around when BUSH's Housing Crash Happened and Damn Near KILLED The WORLD ECONOMY ? ? ? MASS Deportation Jumping Food Prices and TARIFFS Killing CORPORATIONS and People Losing Job ----- MEANS ---- HOUSE PAYMENT DO NOT GET PAID . = ((( CRASHING THE AMERICAN ECONOMY ))) Into the WORST DEPRESSION THE WORLD WILL EVER SEE . ------------------ AND IT IS ALL ON THE IGNORANT LATINOS WHO WANT TO BE MEGA WHITE .

First Trump's administration is going to be jacked up with little known outliers with controversial and radical ideas. That is what Trump is attracted to. His ideas of tariffs and mass deportations are deplorable. They both disadvantage the US instead making it better. However, the tariffs may as well be a scam to get companies profits as when Trump says 10% on item A, companies are going to raise the cost of item A 12 to 15% or so and blame the cost increase on tariffs. For deportation's, I hope most people realize that many working the fields as low wage labor are very well illegals, but they are hired because they keep food costs low. Raising all prices for the poor Republicans will not be beneficial because prices on goods can increase 15% or more but their employer is certainly not going give them a 15% raise to match the cost of living. So Trump has already made the business environment good for more profits by planning to make life more expensive for everyone so business can absorb the additional profits. Probusiness politicians help businesses make money and that money comes from households and the government. And making the government spend more means the government needs to tax more. But TRump is cutting taxes for the people that have the most money. And Trump raising prices with tariffs justs makes households poorer and business richer. Naturally, the stock market will record highs when all the indicators are that business will be making much greater profits from households when Trump takes office.

Republicans may crash our economy by deporting all immigrants and migrants that work so many jobs and with their tariffs which will raise our grocery prices. Holy cow!

Trump will say China was scared of tariffs and never impose them. Then he will say the illegals left on their own so he doesn’t have to deport them. You know promises made promises kept. Then he will do nothing with health care and just rename it Trump care.

Secure the border? Yes. Prioritize deporting those who have committed crimes? Yes. But remember that the American economy relies heavily on foreign labour so the process of dealing with illegal immigrants needs to include dramatically increasing the number of immigration officials to get the productive, employed illegals some kind of legal status. The import tariffs are going to cause inflation. Taking away productive workers will further inflate prices.\n\nThen, of course, there’s the illegal immigrants who are entrepreneurs like Elon Musk. Washington Post reports, and Elon’s brother confirmed, that they entered the US illegally although they do now have legal status in the US. Elon had a student visa to do graduate studies at Stanford but he never signed up for a single course. Instead he created a startup. So he didn’t comply with his student visa and he was working illegally. Quite the hypocrite. Should Elon Musk be deported for his illegal entry back in the 1990s? There’s no evidence he committed any other crimes so perhaps not. But if not, then just treat all the illegals with the same consideration.

Republicans have absolutely no idea how to deport 15 to 20 million people. Between the mass deportation and massive tariffs the U.S. will be bankrupt within a year .

Furthermore, do all these deportations and inflation increases again. Add all these tariffs again get ready for more inflation. The deportations will cause significant increases in grocery prices. You made your bed U.S. now you will sleep in it. Enjoy the future price increases!

When the Corporate Rate gets reduced from 28% to 15%, the price of commodities/goods on corporate owned shelves will go down 46.428571% but not mom and pop shops b/c mom and pop shops ain't got nothing and Big Business just about has it all. A 22-23% market correction is coming soon. It shouldn't be over 30%. Take 8 and divide it by 36 and it gives you the answer.\n\nI suspect tariffs won't take effect immediately. Along with the 22-23% market correction & Corporate Rate reduction, it could appear that those goods will go down 2/3rds in price in 3-4 months & might be stable for a little while. Perhaps tariffs will kick in 18-24 months from now. All those decisions that are made is Big Government and all them taxes that the working man/working folk pay in is jacked up and ain't right! Especially considering that workin' folk can't claim back their taxes but instead get a measly ol' rebate (which is their own money btw). \n\nWe got soil problems in the Delta. I do know how to fix it but it is going to take some time & dollary doos along with man power.

When a lot of these Trump supporters realize how badly that Trump has screwed them and lied to them and a lot of these companies start laying off people by the thousands because the companies cannot afford to pay these tariffs and pay all the employees they have, and the whole time Elon Musk in the Trump family are sitting on their golden toilets and eating bonbons in their ivory towers, Trump and his minions better beef up their security that’s all I’m gonna say

So sweeping 20% tariffs on imports and deporting 5% of the American workforce? What could possibly go wrong?

All lies and conjecture. An empty campaign promise that will never happen to the extent hes saying. Obama had the highest deportations so of course Trump will try to outdo Obama. Trump promise to eliminate taxes in favor of tariffs will never happen. Tariffs on foreign goods won’t make a dent in the amount taxes bring in. Once again lies! Ppl chose the wrong election to be ignorant.

It’s sad that we have idiots like this in the senate ? he thinks the tariffs and kicking illegals out will bring inflation down.. when it’ll do the opposite.. I’m going to love these 4 years

Now ppl want to google “what is a tariff “. You’ll soon see! Should have educated yourself instead of voting for the guy who if his lips are moving, he’s lying.

It won't stop with the illegals. A mass round up and deportation is just phase 1 of Trumps plan. He will go after legal immigrants in phase 2. What maga morons dont understand is that illegals make up a pretty big part of the labor force in America. Mass deportation and the 60% tariff of anything from China (which is 90% of all goods sold in America) and 20% on everything ( food, oil, etc) will crash the economy and send us into a recession. You can't put high tariffs, which the end consumer (us) will end up paying and make things cheaper. It's like all common sense went out the window.

I am sooo looking forward to watching the trump regime trying to deport ALL illegal immigrants. And then all the MAGA criminals will be filling the jobs that the immigrants now have vacated….NOT ???. The US economy will collapse because there will be no one filling those necessary and useful jobs. Watch a MAGA idiot desperately looking for strawberries at the grocery store …..or any other US grown veggies or fruits. The non US grown produce will be exorbitantly expensive due to trump tariffs, and American grown stuff will be rotting in the fields ????

*What they want and what they'll actually get is two very different realities. Get ready for high soaring inflation because of the Tariffs and Labor shortages for the jobs that nobody'll want to do - picking vegetables, fruits, berries, +, and it won't matter what the price of gas(Which during his administration gas was down because not as many people were traveling like they were before Covid.) because not many will be able to afford much of anything else, which under President Biden inflation was falling and was going to be reduced even further and fuel prices were dropping - and money was coming into the Country from Arms Sales which helped lower inflation and taxes, now the next Countries will only have to build Arms that don't have to be as good as the Country's but just better than the Pariah Countries and they'll pick up the Sales that'll be dumped from the Country and jobs will be lost - leading to higher prices again and lower wages for many workers because many people will be unemployed and they'll be willing to take lower paid jobs which will lower overall wages and the quality of merchandise will drop - people really didn't think before putting that checkmark ✔️ - not to mention the ladies and their families that'll be effected some horrendously and chances are that eventually it'll effect the majority of families and then the divorce rates will rise and crimes will rise out of desperation - but the thing is - is that the criminals will be able to afford gas to travel around more to commit more crimes - - -,,,.*

That’s it deport all, abandon supporting Ukrain, support Putin , exit from NATO , put tariffs on all imports, stop transgender and all rights , tear down the constitution etc. After all he was given an overwhelming mandate at the 2024 election

Let me get this straight ! Trump's going to do away with inflation and Tax with Tariffs ... You do know Tarrifs are paid by the importer to the government = you pay them. LMAO !

Tariffs + mass deportations = inflation. No way to change that equation.\n\nIf that's what you voted for don't be surprised when you get it.

The man’s a fool. Will he join us in starvation when the crops rot in the fields, when the price of imported food rises due to tariffs and shortages. No, he’ll join the oligarchs and let the rest of us starve. We don’t expect him to be stupid, but he is.

Wait until the price of produce products go up. You really think Americans are going to pick fruits and vegetables for the wages paid to immigrants? Just like the proposed tariffs, the consumer is going to pay, NOT China!

Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face. Deporting all “illegals” means eliminating about 7.5 million jobs the economy absolutely requires, which nobody else will do. And going after employers does that job even faster. Losing 7.5 million jobs is economic suicide, couple that with outrageous import taxes (ie tariffs) that will skyrocket costs, and we have another Great Depression. And that’s what these clowns are promising to do on day one. When someone tells you they hate government like Republicans do, maybe we shouldn’t be shocked when they suck at running it. Buckle up, America.

Yall Know under Donald Trump Taxes on Everything is going up right! All Companies world wide that Export to U.S are preparing to collect when importing into the U.S. All US companies and buissnes are preparing to raise all their prices on us. Then we Will lose 15 Million workers/ Farmers Groceries will be Affected worse than you’ve seen!!! All thanks to Trumps Tariffs

Kick out working immigrants, tariffs on all imported goods and decrease taxes on the wealthy. Sounds like a great recipe for an economic meltdown.

I wonder if the Trump tariffs are going to do more for deterring undocumented immigrants from arriving than any deportation drive?

The economy is not going to handle deportations + tariffs very well. Prepare yourselves, everyone.

I am going to be watching for the three from the Trumpster:\n\n1. Mass Deportation \n2. Tariffs on China and foreign imports.\n3. The prices of groceries down and stock prices up.\n\nIf either of these things does not happen, then the DEMS should keep their foots on his neck until he does.

Your money grubbing Republican owners should have done way more informing the public about the deranged lunatic and the tariffs he plans to impose maybe BEFORE the election.\nMainstream media are nothing but a bunch of complete 100% azzes.

Give them what they want. They want this mass deportation let them have it. It’s going to cost a lot of money will likely control the house of representatives and the US Senate as well as the president go ahead and do it find the money pay for it do it. Now it’s going to be very weird when we try and figure out who’s going to do the jobs that these people are literally doing right now, but worry about that later. Right now do what you said you would do. Don’t take all day. Don’t slack off do it now. The man said on day one that’s what he would hold him to that. Give the people of America what they want give them those deportations give them those tariffs when the economic problems come with both initiatives. Let Republicans deal with it because this was the plan they proposed let them execute it.

Crazy this people lead our government! President is not king! Congress makes the laws! They are not illegal genius! The majority are in the asylum process, a legal process. They are not illegal until they have a deportation hearing! Stop and Frisk! So, how are 1000% percent tariffs, deporting all the immigrants that pick our products and massive government spending on a wall and deportation is gonna lower inflation, groceries and interest rates. No American is willing to pick fruits for pennies, if they demand 20 an hour, a pound of strawberries or fruit are gonna cost 30 bucks! Seems Trump and GOP had no policies just empty promises! Probably hopping democrats or courts to block the polices so they can say we tried. Like the big beautiful wall Mexico paid for! Wait! If Trump built a wall last time, why we need a new wall! Concepts of a wall like Obamacare! I hope Trump supporters are not on Obamacare care or Welfare- y’all will be forced to work the fields.

The so-called Trump voters who said they are regretting voting for Trump are crazy. I don't understand why they should be regretting? Everybody knows what Donald Trump's intentions are. For example, the 100% rise on tariffs on imported goods, which Trump had tried during his first term and it backfired. Majority of Americans electorate are not just that rational. They make decisions based on emotions. Trump just kept on invoking emotional mantra like the migrants are invading American, woman is not strong and smart enough to be the president of US, a black woman from black immigrant family are not smart enough to be the president of US - old stereo type that have torment America from slavery. It doesn't take rocket science to understand why Trump played on the emotions of Americans. Trump knows that, that is why he kept repeating those emotional mantra, and not talking about the issues. Trump - bonefide conman - and his advisers understood this very well and used to con Americans to vote for him. Good con-job Donald. Kudos.

Jobs were made by BIDEN and Harris....Trump will send 11 Million back...Jobs nobody wants to do... The economy will collapse...1930 all over again...and worse.\nTariffs will be paid by the Americans...Trump does not know how Tariffs work ...\nTrump cannot end a war in 24 hours like Ukraine - Russia...\nTrump has no knowledge of anything...we will see a clown cabinet....like Dana White, Lil Pump, Hulk Hogan, The Undertaker, Joe Rogan...and the criminal Trump Family...\nThe End of America is near...?????????

Reap what you sow morons. Enjoy the recession Trump voters. It’s coming through his tariffs, mass deportations (inflationary as immigrants work in the food industry and housing) and enjoy giving a tax cut to the rich while you see your safety net cut (Medicare, Medicaid, social security etc).

When produce prices jump in the stores because a lack of labor? When building contractors lose a portion of there labor building houses?? When the meat processors like tyson meats and others have illegals working through labor contractors!!!! Yes those of you who say how can they work? Well \nThe corporations give lip service but use contractors to avoid legal issues and inturn labor contractors uses temps lol and other modes!! \nWe are short of labors in these fields of employment. \nId like to see our MAGA voters go out and hoe weeds ???? Or harvest lettuce or tomatoes or bell peppers or plum on 8 foot ladders all day\nOr pore foundational cement for houses? This field has tons of illegals!!!!\nYou think you just experienced inflation!!!! Ha ha. Hold on to your hats because with the extremes in weather in the produce growing areas and labor shortage reducing yield further!!!! Prices in the stores will jump!!! That house may take 6 to 8 months to move in with a 10 % jump.in the price!!!\nAnd if trump put troops on the border the new president in Mexico has stated she will close the borders. So all of those parts and components produced needed for final assembly were stop.\nUnemployment will rise as companies get smaller profits add trumps tariffs. Youll add a trade war!!!!\nPrices go up because tariffs are a tax!!!! Consumers alway get those fees back on to the end user!!!! I give it 12 to 14 months. This economy will spiral downward. By the way, Europe and China have stated they will increase tariffs on items imported from America!!!!\nSo you will have a full blown trade war and products stop being sold!!!! Come folks figure it on out!!!! This is high school basic macro economic models !!!!!!!! Not rocket science here\n,,, your angry because you just experiencedthe back side of a pandemic . Now you want to have trump give you a 1930 solution froM MR. HOOVER. !!!! REMEMBER THE DEPRESSION!!!!

This is cruel and beyond that it's economically idiotic. Just wait until your grocery prices go through the roof. Farmers CANNOT find Americans to pick tomatoes, watermelons, etc. etc. American citizens just simply won't do the work.There are countless other industries that use undocumented workers. We are headed for a higher inflation again if this is implemented. How about immigration reform instead? How about work permits? How about paths to citizenship? We need the workers. Our legislators should do their job and come up with immigration reform rather than spend billions rounding up people and hamstringing our economy in the process. Maybe this move along with tariffs will help Americans realize that electing Trump was a mistake.

I think investment should be in a think tank to train Americans to be better and for us to produce superior technology in every area. Tariffs and other stuff to give people an advantage is not going to put us ahead. Competition is good because it forces one to have to get better.

I'm looking forward to seeing the reaction of Trump supporters when prices go up exponentially in the wake of mass deportations and tariffs???

Republicans, like the Democrats they replace, are stupid. https://youtu.be/ljvq2WZYNlY?si=Xy0izgOcVOM2zKmy. This mass deportation will f up our economy in a MAJOR WAY. That and the Tariffs. We are all F ed now. Idiots have taken over from the incompetent Democrats.

So how will Trump get the American citizens who are too lazy to work a labor job (like in Agriculture) actually work? If not then that industry will fail hence cost americans more money when we need to import food (and pay tariffs passed onto us)

Get ready to pay alot more for everything American people. ?? And the tariffs to China ... ? Harder times ahead.....

This is not gonna happen. Just like having a plan to replace the affordable care act didn'thappen, or , infrastructure, building the wall. Much money was spent... who knows where, somewhere into the pockets of rich companies and nothing was done. Meanwhile tariffs will raise the cost of everything. He'll attempt to somehow blame Biden and Obama. It's all just ridiculous!!

Lol this is going to be a shocking rude awaking for maga and the rich idiots ,you think Americans are going to pick food or stay ina job that doesn't pay enough to survive or clean a motel room lawn wk daycare on and on .people need a reality check and about to git one Americans are entitled people .good luck yall voted for him the tariffs alone is bad enough but take away the workers .keep up the good wk

Just wait.... blanket tariffs on imported foods, plus removal of nearly all our domestic agricultural production capability.\nYou voted for him because eggs are too expensive, well buckle up snowflake because all of us are going to be paying TONS more for ALL groceries once they start doing this. And you can expect most small and medium farms to declare bankruptcy within a year... and your eggs won't even be cheaper - much more expensive actually. Well done.

You think shits expensive now just you wait! Who TF do y’all think butchers all the meat,pics all the produce etc etc etc. ? Not to mention none of his supporters apparently knows how tariffs work! ? Best of luck y’all. You F-Ed around now you’re about to find out. Enjoy!

Does MAGA realize that the American economy relies on illegal immigrants? If you kick them out, the price of groceries, housing, and a million other things go way up. If you add across the board tariffs to that, the economy will absolutely collapse.

Too many people are so uneducated about what Trump is really going to do!! They do NOT understand how tariffs work!! Unlike Kamala’s plan to stop the price gouging in the grocery stores…the GOP will drive prices through the roof!!! Anyone who voted for Trump has a lot of moments ahead of finding out what he was claiming he would do that 1) either he can’t because he doesn’t have the authority to just play God or 2) he had not intended the results that people thought in the first place!! \nBut it is truly going to be a scary time as we watch unemployment start to skyrocket, especially as he gets rid of career government employees!! The unemployment numbers under Biden soon will be a distant memory!! After all, Biden has continued to drop unemployment numbers on a monthly basis, breaking all prior records of low unemployment on a monthly basis for the past 4 years!! The inflation rate which did not include costs of food, were also dropping consistently including this past month!! I believe it under 3% by close to 1/2 a percentage point!\nBut what will truly be frightening will truly be if he accomplishes his plan to get rid of SSI, Medicare & Medicaid as well as the Affordable Care Act!! I’m sure millions are also hoping the $35 cap on Insulin doesn’t just stop before they have to pickup their next prescription! \nBottom line: when in our History have we ever faced a more frightening future at the whim of the Dictator in the White House??

Kicking out the agriculture workforce, add tariffs and then expect that they can lower prices on groceries... Wow, the US is in deep shit.

Yeah no, no republican will pick their own oranges. And since they also want tariffs, they won't even import them either. Well done!
