15. Many, if not most of CA's undocumenteds live and work in the central valley

Not the blue coast. The central valley is the agriculture powerhouse of CA and the entire country. And very red. You want to fire food inflation, fuck with the central valley. You want to piss off some very serious Trump donors, fuck with central valley agriculture.

There aren't going to be any large roundups. Define large? Some incidents that might fit that category occurred during his first term. And that's my prediction, 2017 to 2020 repeat. It's a whole lot of to do about little, though magat trash won't see it that way and neither will the doom and gloomers here. They'll actually think he's deporting all of them. Nope. Ain't gonna happen, even in blue states.

For the umpteenth time, he's a bullshit artist. Everyone has none at least one in their life. 90% of what they spew is for effect and / or a means of negotiation. It's bluster.
