I don't feel bad for those immorally underpaying and abusing the desperate and undocumented (maybe the vast majority of them?), but I kinda do for those who weren't. It's not so black and white, sometimes people are just more stupid than they are evil and fall for low level propaganda. We should strive to build a world that's a bit more foolproof, IMO.

Immigrant labor abuse depends on what you're farming. Corn and soybeans are ridiculously well automated and only need a few people to run hundreds of acres.

Anything else? Needs teams of workers, and of course those are going to be abused immigrants.

Farmers: I'll still vote for Trump every opportunity I get.

Trump pulled this shit first time around. This is China Trade War 2.0. They had all the time in the world to think on their vote.

They don't think. They're told how to think by the billionaire propaganda machine, and by an evangelical pedophile every Sunday.

Nobody will be laughing once there's no food.

Yes, technically, because I’m guffawing so hard it physically hurts.

Can someone explain how Trump screwed over farmers? I work with farmers in the northern US, and it was a shorter season for some, but I don't know how Trump hurt them. Is this strictly because you think tariffs are hurting them, or is it something I missed?

First they come for the workers than the farmers.
