Immigrant Trump voter’s farm failing, moans that Americans are ‘too lazy and too mouthy’ for dairy work

Leopards now eating well. Faces nervous.

Life comes at you fast. This hard lesson is being learned by Donald Trump voters up and down the nation each day as they realize, to their horror, they happily voted for their own destruction.

We’ve seen dumbfounded Trump voters watching their loved ones getting dragged away by ICE, depressed hicks watching their local hospital shutter its doors for the last time, and jaws dropping as business owners see the tariffs they’re now being forced to pay. We hate to say we told you so. But well, we told you so!

For a particularly bizarre bit of grousing from a Trump voter, let’s see Politico’s article ‘These Red Vermont Towns Wanted ‘America First.’ They’re Getting More Than They Bargained For’. The article is a litany of miserable Trump voters realizing they’re turkeys who voted for Thanksgiving, but one stands out.

“Major dairy farmer” Jacques “Jack” Parent is a Canadian immigrant and “outspoken Trump supporter” who’s taking a strong line against immigrants, saying: “You can’t let a million people walk into this country — ‘Ah, no big deal.’ You look at history, any country that has done that, its demise is after that.”

But Jacques, you yourself are an immigrant! Ah, but you see, he’s the good kind of immigrant: “I have nothing against immigrants: I’m one. But we did it the legal way.”

“Lazy” Americans

Parent is now in a pickle, as ICE crackdowns and widespread Trumpish hatred towards immigrant workers mean there’s no one available to run his dairy farm. But Jacques, why not simply employ Americans to run your dairy farm? He has an answer to that too: “Americans, he argued, are too “lazy” and too mouthy for the rigors of farm work.”

Parent says all he wants to do is be able to employ migrants as slaves, no biggie. He proposes: “Jose wants to work for Jack Parent — fingerprints, take your picture. When he gets here, Jack Parent calls back, ‘Yeah, he’s here, in three years I got to send him back.”

Local pastor Father Barrera laid it out in blunt terms when describing the pickle Jacques and his Trump-voting ilk are in: “They support the president and his agenda,” he said. “But the farm owners have incredible difficulty recruiting people, American citizens, to do this work.”

It’s one of life’s darkly amusing twists that many Trump voters eagerly voted for him in the hopes of owning the libs. Right now, the libs are politically unhappy but basically fine. As for the Trump voters? Well, that vote to own the libs has only ended up owning themselves. So break out the tiny violins and play a squeaky little sad song for these soon-to-be-destitute rubes.
