Machia voted for Trump, drawn by promises of border control and national security. “We didn’t want drugs or gangbangers,” he said. But what he didn’t expect was losing some of his most dedicated employees to immigration arrests.

LOL. Idiots
This doesn’t feel like a genuine question, because it’s an open secret that a majority of american restaurants, farms, and construction outfits run on migrant labor at below minimum wage. I personally work in construction in Oregon, and I’m well aware of this, even hundreds of miles from a boarder.
I’m not American, so other than random articles I see shared on various social media of questionable reputation, I don’t know. So yes, it’s a genuine question.
