We’re not sure if this woman is a famous “influencer” or something, but her argument managed to influence Sen. Cory Booker, who posted her video. She says if you can’t find the humanity to care about people being loaded into unmarked vans by masked officers, you should at least be selfish and think of all of the crappy jobs that Americans won’t do. Not only will the country lose $1 trillion in tax revenue, but you’ll have to wait longer at your favorite restaurant, and you won’t be able to find an Uber or Lyft driver. It’s the Democrats’ old “Who will pick the cotton?” argument, and it’s fully endorsed by Booker.
Immigrants are essential to the backbone of our economy. Mass deportations and cruel policies against hardworking families don’t make us safer or stronger—they weaken us. pic.twitter.com/x4AFOX5KyZ

So Booker agrees that mass deportations will cost us $1 trillion in tax revenue, but that at least 42 percent of agricultural workers are illegal aliens. White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller said that number is closer to 8 percent — most illegal immigrants live in blue cities, not on farms.
Why do democrats want slavery so badly?

The same old slave argument. Democrats are devastated that they are losing their slave labor

Illegal immigrants mostly work in service jobs. They are essential workers in jobs serving (spoiled) wealthy Americans with modern day conveniences (house cleaning, pedicures, cheap landscaping) in exchange for ultra low wages
There was another word for this back in the day…

You do understand the difference between legal and illegal immigration don’t you?

Come legally, no problem.

Hey Cory, what’s a work visa?

Advocating for slavery in 2025 is wild.
— Rocket (@rocketscalping) June 11, 2025
Oh, look, another piece of shit advocating for modern-day slavery.
Go fuck yourself, Cory.

Immigrants were the foundation upon which this country was built. Illegal aliens are criminals.
But, of course, you conflate the two, believing that Americans are too ignorant to know the difference.

The “backbone” of our country is its Constitution and the system of laws it engendered. People who have violated our laws insult our constitutional republic. Those who have illegally entered our country must leave, either voluntarily or by force.

But who will pick the cotton?
If you’re too stupid to come up with a better labor solution than illegal workers, resign.

So, why are Democrats so opposed to people here illegally being deported? Well, they’ll lose congressional seats and probably votes, eventually, and they’ll also lose access to cheap labor … how compassionate is that, wanting people to come here illegally to work back-breaking jobs at low wages?
finally, democrats have found a winning strategy to reach the median american voter:
