    While everyone was bickering over WHCD, Trump announced to the crowd in Michigan that he wants to let in more guest workers to help farmers suffering from what he described as “a little pain” from his renegotiation of trade relationships.

        CBSN did a report last week that farmers can’t get enough Americans to do these jobs so they’re having to invest millions of dollars in AI to try and develop the proper technology so they can continue farming on a large scale. They were begging for more guest worker Visas.

        Not that I agree or disagree, just the point that it’s a multifaceted issue that was likely exacerbated by the tariffs albeit not caused by them.

        Would those "guest workers" be white like those working at #MaraNightmare or would they be brown? His golf course here in Westchester needs guest workers. Why? Are there are no employed people or college kids who coming home 4 summer? #scampResident

        But didn’t he claim it was going to be really good for the farmers? And they would stand by him because America?

        Agree John. There were some nuggets of news in the campaign rally last night, including the promise to close down the government just before the midterms if he doesn’t get his wall. Dems should be happy with that.

        Guest workers? We used to call them migrant workers. Will guest workers be treated better than migrant workers? I hope so.
