One wonders if trump has been getting some flack from agribusiness after another flip-flop

The funny part about the left losing their minds over this is once the illegals are removed the first ones we would be bringing back legally will be the ones with agricultural and construction skills. The difference will be their employers now have to pay and provide benefits to a legal person and not fucking them over as illegals.

And punish the employers when you find illegals working for them.

Many of your opponents have no problem with deportation as long as due process is followed.

Trump Shifts Deportation Focus, Pausing Most Raids on Farms, Hotels and Eateries​

The Trump administration has abruptly shifted the focus of its mass deportation campaign, telling Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials to largely pause raids and arrests in the agricultural industry, hotels and restaurants, according to an internal email and three U.S. officials with knowledge of the guidance.

The decision suggested that the scale of President Trump’s mass deportation campaign — an issue that is at the heart of his presidency — is hurting industries and constituencies that he does not want to lose.

Are we now to believe it's more important to keep agribusiness' profits safe than the nation?

Trump has made it demonstrably clear to anyone -- including American businesses -- that if they publicly criticize him, they're his next target. He picks the winners and losers in all things.

I'm sure agribusiness is trying some behind-the-scenes advocacy, so hopefully that will work to some degree.
