Americans warned of grocery prices shock
"If you think your groceries are expensive now, wait until the farms are empty," AOC said on the "Latino USA" podcast.
Summary
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez warned that Trump’s mass deportation policy could lead to labor shortages and higher grocery prices.
Experts say agriculture, construction, and healthcare will be hardest hit, with farm output losses estimated between $30 and $60 billion.
Deportations could cost the U.S. economy up to $88 billion annually.
AOC argued that immigrant labor is vital to economic stability, urging Congress to pursue immigration reform.

Wow, she doesn't gaf about them at all, she just wants them to stay so she can get lower prices on produce??
I think the question is to deport them or not. And if they had it better where they were they probably wouldn’t have left.
This is painfully obvious.
It's just good rhetoric. Many people voted for trump because they somehow thought he'd make things more affordable for them. Pointing out that he's doing the opposite is good. It also gives self-interested people a reason to care about immigrations issues.
From experience, these morons will find a way to blame it on Biden. I have zero hope for Trump voters getting out of their delusions because they are in a social media induced feedback loop. There is going to be so much pain in the next 4 years
