Trump's Master Bait and Switch Strategy: immigration, jobs, and cleaning up the swamp

Maybe these fired workers can start doing seasonal harvesting of fruit and vegetables that the deported immigrants once did. Call it serial vacations, as they move on every month to new regions to work for peanuts.

They can make $10 an hour, once they become strong and skilled, and are willing to move every few weeks to new states to live in shacks, away from their families, in order to harvest our food supply. If wages are raised enough to attract US workers, this will bring in an avalanche of foreign food at a cheaper price....which Trump can then tax, and set off more trade wars and more job losses by US workers whose products are exported. The price of food will skyrocket....

It is a viciouis cycle, but bait and switch has allowed Trump to gain power, despite losing the election by 2.5 million. Trump's Master Bait and Switch is fully in force and will satisfy no one but himself and his crony billionaires, who are primed to occupy the seat of power: fascism fulfilled..........., and he will be crowing about jobs saved by giving away taxpayer money, until the cost becomes a drain on the economy and trade wars dry up US exports, and once again mercantilism will fail and jobs will be lost. The anger that Trump redirected will come back to threaten him when the inevitible discovery of his bait and switch propaganda tactic is exposed to the "morons (his term)" who voted for him. He will be crushed not by his "enemies" but by his betrayed supporters who bought the fantasy.

The anger and hatred he stirred up will boomerang and bring him down.

Recall the fate of Mussolini.
