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.

    Saying they’re good at messaging and then saying people don’t paying attention enough to see it is an oxymoron. If they were good at messaging you wouldn’t have to pay attention to see it.

      I disagree. They’re not responsible for the lack of media coverage. If all you watch is legacy media, you’re not going to see democratic messaging.

        If there are voters that are only watching legacy media then any approach that doesn’t include legacy media is nothing short of negligent.

          How do you propose democratic politicians make legacy media cover their messaging? Can you explain how politicians having no control over legacy media companies is negligence? I’m not following the logic on that one…

            If it’s my job to make sure the Dam keeps working and the Dam breaks, I’m responsible. I don’t get to say “Well I didn’t know about the cracks I’m only a manager.”. As a professional you can’t just dismiss responsibility. You have to be proficient. If I hire someone who claims to be an expert, and they break things, they can be sued.

            It’s the Democrats job to get elected. They will need to make sure their message makes it to average Americans. Since they failed to do this, they’ve failed to do their job. They’re incompetent and guilty of gross negligence.

            Your “Best Effort” is meaningless in the real world. Results speak for themselves and the Dems are losers.
