Farmers who got suckered into voting for Trump, are soon going to find out that the narcissist doesn't care about them, only about himself.

"U.S. farm industry groups want President-elect Donald Trump to spare their sector from his promise of mass deportations, which could upend a food supply chain heavily dependent on immigrants in the United States illegally. Nearly half of US farm workers lack legal status.

Mass removal of farm workers would shock the food supply chain and drive consumer grocery prices higher, said David Ortega, a professor of food economics and policy at Michigan State University."

Dave Puglia, the president and CEO of the Western Growers Association, called the prospect of [immigration] sweeps on farms “very troubling.”

These MAGA farmers could be ruined if Trump follows through with mass deportations
