23. Trump tariffs and deportation will skyrocket grocery prices

Sun Dec 8, 2024, 04:16 PM

Dec 8

Most winter fruits and vegetables are grown in Mexico and there'll be no one to pick the American grown fruits and vegetables because Trump plans to deport all of the immigrants who pick them. This will shaft all of Trump's maga supporters in their pocket books. I can't wait to see the shocked looks of betrayal on the maga's faces.
