And the Dow is down nearly 2,000 points. Winning.

Right can’t afford a home if you do not make 6 figures. Glad my house is paid for!!

They will get it soon enough. There is nowhere for Trump and his maga republicans to hide this time around. Their failures will be on full display this time around.

RFK also wants to remove farm subsidies.

He has to keep saying he will start mass deportations because that got the loudest cheers at his rallies.

Yesterday, I traveled nearly 400 miles across rural WI making deliveries to friends & family in small towns Shocked to see the number of family farms w/parked "For Sale" signs on cars, trucks & farm equipment PROOF that Rep. Tom Tiffany (R-WI) did NOT help farmers with lower fuel/fertilizer prices

To the surprise of no one

They were so busy gaming the odds and treating this like a freaking horse race, they didn’t talk about any policy.

Grocery prices going up will some how make Trump actually popular. :|

These are the same people that voted to put this POS into office. Tough. I hope he does this.

Shocked I tell you. SHOCKED!

That would be okay; educational, so to speak.

Finish your thought process CNN. These are the black jobs that our new president was taking about. If you had mentioned that a few months ago we wouldn’t be here.

Would have been nice to emphasize this before Nov. 5th.

So CNN, you knew this weeks ago and longer, but you chose to not amplify a lot of the things you didn’t push back when you interviewed the maggot representatives so don’t come stating it now after little too late

I don’t see this ending well.

Trumps games will not help you! You will be in a worse spot than ever had been!

Why would you put something this important behind a paywall?

Trump is individually the US’s version of the UK’s Brexit. Where the UK decided to break ties with its historic neighbours and allies in an unprecedented ridiculous moment of self harm. The US voted in a specimen that actually told the electorate he was going to do the same damage! 😶

This week, on No Duh, Thanks Trumpies …

find* people, obviously

50% of the US fruit and veg comes from California and paying $26+ an hour they are struggling to get workers. Hundreds of acres go rot because nobody available to pick the produce. Deport those workers and watch what happens, empty store shelves.

🤔

No, REALLY? Who'd a thunk?? 😜 😜 😜

And CNN will continue to water down reality and soon will be reporting 24/7 on Trump's wallet/golfgame/rallies/foodchoices again. CNN = FOX = MSNBC = not worth relying on for actual unbiased news coverage.

You guys are absolutely worthless.

There were news stories warning that the companies were planning on hiking prices if he got elected.

sshhhhhush! this is supposed to be kept secret.

Yes much more expensive

Hope it will be hyperinflation and get taste of conartist, dumb people deserve to face consequence of own actions first hand to shake up his tiny brain until he is aware that he got conned all along.

They will reap what they have sown.

Might be smart…

USA is craving for many immigrants on many areas from doctors, nurses and medicine staff to many other having insufficient workers! So, deportation issue must not be a mass move targeting all possible immigrants to fill the blanks on those NATIONAL needs! Green Card Lottery ban was such a disaster!

We’re just NOW figuring this out?! I could’ve told you this months ago…

Luckily he isn’t good at telling the truth. He was just using people’s hate to get votes.

Deportation of our workers along with tariffs on imported goods will drive inflation to the moon! I left out the cruelty of it.

But the app is still free. Go figure.

Vegetable and fruit grown in blue states like California that support immigration would get more expensive. Most farms now are megafarms with automation at least in the Midwest. I see meat and egg prices skyrocketing. Asia retaliatory tariffs should offset some meat demand as overseas sales fall. 🤔

I keep saying it. People still giving grace saying “oh for eggs to be cheaper you sold out your fellow Americans….” No, not even for that. Things will get MORE expensive. It’s not just some horrible-but-beneficial thing that’s being promised, it’s horror with no offsetting benefit whatsoever

Duh.

You shouldn't say "could". It will make groceries and so much more expensive. You're wishy washy lies are how we got here.

They were warned and didn’t listen

Too bad you didn't push this before the election!

Duh! How do these people not comprehend this?!

Cost will go through the roof. Especially if farmers have to pay for visas to bring folks into work the farms.

Nope had to cut back due to my health no starches either. I live for pasta and potatoes & yes cornbread. My body thanks me in advance!!

This would have been nice to know prior to the election don’t you think?

That sounds like the #US version of #Brexit! ##brexitshambles

Strange how they kept their mouths shut about this before the election.

The people abusing low wage illegals are upset? Shocker!

Republican president, Republican senate, Republican house, Republican SCOTUS. They will be forced to own it.

Nah. Really? 😒

'Could' make matters worse? Seriously? Who is going to harvest the crops?

Duh 🤦🏻‍♀️

Shocker #idiocracy

I guess we all knew this was gonna happen. Now what?

Cover what he did the first time, returning worker exemption was removed for H2B so it went from 135,000 visas to 65,000. Then he used Wage N Hour audits to fine businesses right below the cost a lawyer so they would pay it and move on.

Ya think?

Super simple solution to this. Just lie about deportations.

"Trump's mass deportations could make it worse." EVERYTHING he does makes something worse.

Wait until he mobilizes the reserves and national guard and makes them do farm work.

Gosh, this comes as an enormous surprise, nearly two weeks after election day. If only there had been, say, more media focus on the stakes of the election BEFORE election day, including predictable consequences of policy proposals, maybe there would have been more informed voting. Darn it all.

Between mass deportation of those that pick the fruit and vegetable and his upcoming tariffs on everything imported to the U.S., expect to see prices on some things possibly double, maybe even triple in price. Came across this post and thought i would borrow it and share it.

Fuck them all, they all voted for him, even CNN helped Trump get to power. So fuck you CNN

Majority of fruits, vegetables and nuts are from CA. Let’s stop sending them to RED States and let them pay the high prices fruits and veggies from Mexico, with the tariffs. Let them feel the pain! FAFO is great 👍🏼

They won't care. They'll blame anyone else and follow Cheetolini till the end of time. Me? I'm in for his slow demise.

Gee, CNN… thanks for waiting until after the election to report the freaking truth.

The find out stage is so close 😂

In other words they confess about not paying immigrants a living wage. Can we deport agriculture executives instead?

Interesting there is no warning that food companies may need to make less profit? Would be another angle instead of always the scare mongering and push down to consumers.

Its sad cuz the # 1 issue that was on every voter’s list was cost of living/inflation. My guess, after 4 years, everything’s going to cost more. Question is: will either party make it their priority.. i have my doubts.

But trump don’t care even Spanish vote for him

The big agricultural corporations are going to write Trump a check and it will all go away. Corporations will never allow the deportation of that much cheap labor.

After the election, they all look wretched, crushed, broken, shame- filled and pitiable on screen as they struggle to "unburden what was and what would be". Body language and appearance don't lie.😄/2

Prices will soar while the crops rot in the fields. We should send trump voters to fill the worker shortages. They can wear their red hats of stupidity.

Would have been nice if they had said this (and it reported on more widely) before the election

They can't publish it beforehand! They have to squirrel away the details for a book deal later.

It also will simply be less available. Empty shelves.

You might not even get food products to the store.

Our agriculture and infrastructure will collapse

CNN on the ball once again protecting their Orange Messiah.

Common sense.

It didn’t take an economic genius to see that w/be the natural outcome - which is why I cannot understand rural voters!

Duh

The conclusion about how mass deportations will affect prices and the availability of services doesn’t require a PhD to figure out. Unless there’s a corresponding reform of immigration laws, who’s going to do the work? Shortages will create higher prices for those who’re least able to afford it.

I hope I'm right. But if I'm not I'm deeply saddened by US citizens allowing people who are looking for a better life to be treated like this. I'm not talking about those who really are patently criminal but it appears that most immigrants are very law abiding.

Maybe we shouldn't have been happy that people earn a pittance in order to grow/pick our food.

Why are we saying "could"? Or do you mean they won't get more expensive because they won't even be on the shelves anymore?

No 💩

Amazing how CNN is doing all of these stories about the impact of the Trump candidacy AFTER the election. Before the election, CNN couldn’t be bothered to talk about impact of policies; they were too focused on the Trump drama.

We all knew this. Let the MAGA cult cry wolf.

I’m all the way in for it. Let the FAFO begin.

More expensive? How about non-existent? Who is going to pick the crops, milk the cows?

I could see lazy self entitled white kids taking these jobs for less than minimumwage.

Maybe instead of using the military for mass deportations he should use them to pick vegetables.

Remember all the small farm bankruptcies under his last reign of terror? I have to wonder if the "Big AG" will be exempt from his promise, because the majority of us know that Americans won't work for the pittance that they pay undocumented workers. 2019 article www.fb.org/market-intel...

Reporting the actual stakes would ruin the horse race narrative.

DITTO

So you're telling me Americans are too lazy to do this work? Shocker!

Exactly

or the actual definition of tariffs. that might have been helpful to the masses 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Fair.

Story has probably been written for a month... Reporter reported, editor edited. Then "someone" spiked it, right? Release it now, when it will have no impact. Start your own media outlet: if it's honest and accurate the world will beat a path to your door. Your move, "Journalists".

Nope. That would have been responsible journalism. They just like to stir the pot.

It makes my blood boil.

Ah..it is rhetorical Monday again.
