Friday

My MAGA family and friends, before I disassociated from them, used to talk as though

"the UraPeeins needed us a more than we a needed them and Trump was gonna make them pay more and us Muricans would all be rich."

I hope they like working in the low paying agricultural, meat processing, and tire and muffler jobs they're deporting people from. There will be a shortage in welding and construction. It pays more but a lot of red states just passed laws that allow children to take on more dangerous jobs even working late on school nights all for much lower pay.

They probably think African Americans, who MAGA think are all on welfare, will be forced to take those jobs when the Trumpenfuhrer ends their welfare.
