Jacobin

Trump has betrayed voters by softening on mass deportations, mimicking weak Democratic policies. Despite promises to prioritize Americans, Trump is now considering amnesty for illegals in agriculture and hospitality, shielding employers who exploit cheap labor and commit felonies like identity theft. This backtrack harms Americans, depresses wages, and rewards lawbreakers, showing Trump doesn't deliver.
