Machia voted for Trump, drawn by promises of border control and national security. “We didn’t want drugs or gangbangers,” he said. But what he didn’t expect was losing some of his most dedicated employees to immigration arrests.

“It’s scaring the farming community,” Machia admitted. “We didn’t think they’d come for the people who help us milk cows.”

LOL. Idiots

    Don’t worry, Dustin Machia, fifth-generation dairy farmer from Sheldon.

    Sell your farm to Farmco Inc: their robots will milk your cows.

    Buy an overpriced house in the city to live, maybe one with lots of drugs and gang-bangers.

    Make sure you support Trump’s election bid in 2028, and/or vote for Donald Trump, Jr, lest a satanic Democrat moderate who defeated AOC by just a hair wins.

    If you get age related health problems, look to RFK, Jr.

    Remember the days when Americans and Canadians could cross the Vermont-Quebec border with relative ease? Those days are gone, and much of Canada, and perhaps a third of America, now hate people like you.

    At some point Maga will realize the grift and there will be some sort of a reckoning. And I’ll be watching and laughing. Mind you, it will probably be a right wing uprising but still I will laugh at that stupid fucking country’s implosion.

    Or, you know, they could offer good wages and benefits to attract legal workers and charge enough for the milk to cover their costs. I’m lactose intolerant anyway, I don’t care if milk and cheese become a little more expensive. But I know, my idea is crazy.

    This is the kind of thing that made me realise how much a urban being I am.
    The way, I’m imagining a farmer, at least the one with milk farm is a guy waking before the sun because he must milk the cows at 4 a.m.

    It’s strange. I live in rural VT and whenever i bike around you see Trump signs on a lot of farm fields. But then you read the newspaper and you read about ICE detaining legal employees at farms and the farmers being upset about it.

    I genuinely don’t understand.

        Lies about brown people are their favorite, they can’t resist. They’ll believe anything you tell them as long as it’s bad.

        Someone was bound to figure that out and start doing it (40 years ago)

      I come from a deep red state but all the farmers out there are Democrats, as are most degree holding individuals in general. It’s the people who work retail, the police, the oilfield, and the miners who all vote red.

    Even though Machia says he would still vote for Trump…

    Then he gets what he gets. I don’t feel a damn bit sorry for someone that stupid.
