Second ('Third') Trump Presidency Thread

"President Trump is a master messenger in many ways, but he also doesn't speak with precision about things sometimes. And I think that this might be one of those situations where perhaps his comments were based on what he was recalling may have been the state of play previously."


The governments own lawyer tells the court the President is an idiot and to disregard what he says.
 
Vincent Scardina supported Donald Trump’s tough stance on immigration at the ballot box. But that decision came back to bite the roofing boss when ICE detained a third of his workforce.

The six men, all from Nicaragua, were pulled over in a work truck on May 27 while heading to a job—and carted off to jail.

According to the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, deputies helped transport the men to a local detention facility “for deportation.”

Scardina, who runs a small roofing business in Florida’s Lower Keys, cannot believe it. “It’s quite a shock. You get to know these guys, you become their friends—not just an employer but a friend,” he told NBC6, visibly emotional.

Adding to Scardina’s annoyance, the men had valid work permits and pending asylum applications, according to their attorney Regilucia Smith. “They are legally here,” she said. “Valid work permit, not even close to expired… again, no criminal records—not here, not in Nicaragua.”

Scardina says he voted for Trump and still supports many of the former president’s policies, but this isn’t what he signed up for. “Buyer’s remorse? I don’t know, a little bit.”

The detained men represented a third of his total staff—devastating in a small labor pool like Key West. “We’re not able...to just replace people as easily as, say, a big city, [with] very limited people to pull from, and then you would have to train them, and that takes sometimes years,” he said.

Even more jarring, three of the workers have now been transferred to detention centers in Texas and California. The rest remain in local custody, as their lawyer fights to have them released.

 
Agriculture and meatpacking are pretty important. I don't think we want to lose those industries. Even if the people who work there are migrants without documentation.
 
AHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHA

It is abundantly clear to anyone with a working brain that the US is about blanket Iran with missile fire. He’s moved a fleet of carrier ships and now he’s telling people in Tehran to evacuate. If nothing else, the man isn’t subtle.

Hard to imagine a more disastrous 6 month start to a term than this.

at the same time with tax cuts and deregulation coming, the next 14-16 months can be quite prosperous
