Predictable. In fact, this board predicted it. Like it or not, we are dependent on migrant (sometimes illegal) labor for much of our food supply. Get rid of that labor force, and harvest becomes problematic, and prices go up.

For years, Dems have wanted to fix that problem (well, most of them). Reps haven't wanted to do anything but deport them. Creating a bracero-like program continues to be anathema to them. So, their constituents are going to get whacked in the wallet at the grocery store. I'm sure somehow they'll contort it to blame Dems.

But it does seem like a good campaign issue: rising food prices. I'm just not sure MAGA can accept the root-cause (i.e. deporting everyone), and the solution (i.e. NOT deporting everyone, and creating a migrant worker visa system).
