Why would illegal immigrant workers self-deport when they can stick around and get Trump’s new “good, long time worker” amnesty from their employers (at least if they work in hotels or on farms, as if the program will stay confined to those industries) https://t.co/ATmtJQh9I9

Right—there is already a program H-2A—for those ag workers. Farmers can use that. As for hotels, it’s ludicrous to say Americans and legal immigrants won’t work as maids. They already do. So what’s Trump talking about? https://t.co/fQHaOJRO06

Does the three strike rule apply to Trump and his MAGA support?
Strike 1: Sorry, we’re keeping Epstein info secret (we won’t tell you why)!
