Yep. When Trump say that's the way it's going to be, then that's the way it's going to be. Except for here, and here, and here.

 

President Donald Trump said in an interview on Fox News that the administration is working to develop a temporary pass for immigrants who work in certain industries, which would mark the latest shift in the administration’s approach to immigration enforcement for farmworkers  https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigration/trump-administration-working-temporary-pass-immigrants-farm-industries-rcna215806

It's cheap labor, which is what Trump wants, in addition to a cheap dollar. Connect some dots. Trump wants non-enforcement of immigration laws for ag and hospitality workers. Why? Although more than a sufficient number of visas are available, employers would be forced to pay legal visa holding workers more money. It also explains why the Republicans, John Thune from a farm state, worked to hoodwink people on the proposal to strip medicaid from illegals. Farm state Republicans want their farmers to put the cost of illegal alien health care onto taxpayers. That's why Thune didn't fight the parliamentarian's stripping of that part of the bill from the BBB. When it's all said and done, the BBB will only have one main element left intact: tax cuts for billionaires.

What do I care about Hillary Clinton. I'm interested in the issue, not the people or the parties. But I sure would like to know who put farmers in charge of immigration policy.  

Quote

“I don’t back away,” he [Trump] said. “What I do have, I cherish our farmers. And when we go into a farm and we take away people that have been working there for 15 and 20 years, who were good, who possibly came in incorrectly. And what we’re going to do is we’re going to do something for farmers where we can let the farmer sort of be in charge. The farmer knows he’s not going to hire a murderer.”
