You may be right. But I am uncertain as to which spoke in our wheel of commerce will fall off first; deportation of immigrants or imposition of tariffs coupled with automatic renewal of the Trump tax cuts. Immigrants employed in vital food production might survive Trump's inklings to rid the Nation or all "those rapists, terrorists, criminal and pet eaters"; but the Nation cannot long survive immediate, as promised, exercise of his Executive power to impose Tariffs plus the automatic renewal of the Trump tax cuts on January 1, 2025.

I would be glad to share this post if you made two corrections.First, Japanese Americans were “interned” not “interred.” Second, and this is becoming a real pet peeve of mine, Native Americans (or First Nations peoples, as the Canadians say) are ALSO the descendants of immigrants. No humans evolved in the Western Hemisphere. It was populated by people who came from Eurasia. Yes, they came much earlier than anyone else, but they also came here as immigrants.
