Story page deleted at The Economist. Fake news. You can't trust left leaning mainstream publications.

It was also in the Globe.

Because of course, the right wing rags would NEVER EVER be guilty of publishing something dishonest. Besides, I don't see the gist of the article being that much different than elsewhere.

When the Economist and Globe are referred to as left leaning, I take stock and move on...

Credit to this NBC news station for airing a story about a MAGA supporter that's now in the "finding out" phase of realizing Trump doesn't care if his voters lose their businesses or not, so long as they deport the brown people out of the USA as fast as they can:
[video]
Trump voter in Florida Keys says ICE detained a third of his employees at small roofing company, “thought the administration was going to focus on deporting criminals, but seems immigration officials are just trying to meet quotas…”
The six men were heading to do a job for Vincent Scardina early on May 27th when they were stopped by immigration authorities on U.S. 1 in Sugarloaf Key.
According to an incident report from the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, deputies then transported some of the men to a detention facility in the Keys “for deportation.” Three have already been transferred to detention centers in Texas and California.
“It’s pretty obvious,” a coworker says, “the reason why they were pulled over is because they’re Latino men.”
At least 5 of the 6 men from Nicaragua are in the U.S. legally, says their attorney Regilucia Smith: “They are legally here. They have an authorization to stay… Valid work permit…no criminal records, not here, not in Nicaragua.”
Scardina, who’s lived in Key West for 44 year and owned the roofing company for 37, says, “You get to know these guys, you become their friends, just not an employer, but a friend, and you see what happens to their family. It’s… It’s quite a shock.”
“I know of one landscaper,” Scardina continues, “that lost nine or 10 of his whole crew he had and he’s just totally out of business all of a sudden, just like that.”
In the video, I truly believe the guy looked at his employees are people, friends, and not just cheap labour. He does seem emotionally affected at losing them.

Such a sad, insecure, pathetic little wannabe dictator.
He's beneath contempt.

Former ABC News journalist Terry Moran has a perspective.
