An undocumented immigrant from Guatemala says the odds of Trump improving the economy is worth the potentially higher risk of deportation. “Trump wants to deport those who do bad things. … I haven’t broken any laws.” https://t.co/7JFCCYGcC7

Our friend here doesn't realize that the bad thing he did was actually just coming here.
That's enough to make you an "illegal".
Wow, if we only had some precedent for this:

Oh, that's right--we do. And we are also talking about denaturalization and remigration: in other words, taking citizenship back. Like just deciding someone was working out with us, but like, whoops, we have to let you (MAKE YOU) go back, now. Not very encouraging words from people who also want to do away with birthright citizenship. Forget about the "Dreamers"--I'm pretty sure Trump is definitely the end of DACA. He might send people back who were born here but whose parents had green cards.
Anyway, doing this will be incredibly expensive. I mean, of course, it costs us our mortal souls to deny the stranger for we should see the holiness in him or her, but also: just the manpower, logistics, boarding, etc. alone. But it will definitely fuck up our staple food price points.
But before you go to sleep thinking the deportation mess is the worst way Trump and friends will fuck up everything, there is also a nightmare on the horizon: avian flu in poultry and cattle on the West Coast that has crossed over to be a human threat with high mortality potential.
Remember how Trump handled COVID-19?
A food security issue, a potential pandemic, and Trump is talking about putting lil' crazy-ass Bobby Kennedy, roadkill connoisseur and brain worm harborer, in charge of anything to do with our national health?
This is the prologue to a post-Apocalyptic video game soon to be a series on MAX. This is a kind of crazypants scenario that would be obvious to people whose brains weren't too broke to pay attention.
This does not feel like a cool timeline to be in. And this is what you can actually expect from TrumpWorld.
