Isn't it actually a crime to deliberately hire undocumented immigrants in Florida. I'm sure it is.

Why is this guy drawing attention to the fact that he committed a crime?

They are well aware, they just never expect that it willl impact their own lives, because they all think they're the special one who is excempt.

Hence the famous quote "He's not hurting the right ones".

If those Republicans could read, they'd be very upset right now.

No, they don't. We had Brexit. It was a smörgåsbord of stupid like that.

"We want freedom of movement cancelled so EU folks can't come in here, "followed by "What do you mean we don't have freedom of movement and can't just live in Spain?"

"All immigrants gone!" followed by "why are there no cheap immigrants anymore for working in the field and drive trucks?"

"Close the borders!" and "Why is there suddenly this long line and why do we need custom checks and passports?"

"After we made it more difficult for foreigners to come here, we have less tourists. Somebody do something!"

"When we said you can't fish here, we meant we can still fish over there."

"Yeah, I know we cancelled all cooperation but we really would like the subsidies to continue."

You can keep going. There were enough predictions that this was exactly what would happen, it was ignored in emotional flurry, ideologies and name calling. Of course there is a lot of "why didn't anyone warn us?" afterwards. I conclude they're not really thinking, just mostly reacting emotionally and going along with the peer group who has a very high "F U I got mine" content.

Considering how many "save the children" QAnoners that turn out to be pedophiles? No.

They see an R next to someone's name and that's all they think about

Do these people ever reflect and think about what they’re about to do, do or have done?

Right-wing media always has another scapegoat to deflect the blame.

People still eat meat and dairy. And they know innocent animals are killed and tortured because of it.

People like this guy and his political masters don't need just exposure. They need and I qoute their party " to be roughed up a bit".

It shouldn't have, but your comment made me laugh out loud.

You could simply document the immigrants and incorporate them into large labor coalitions auctioning their work at market rates.

Instead, we have a system of paying workers under-the-table at below market rates, while using their illegal status as leverage to prevent them from negotiating for better pay.

So you need a legal system for migration before you can get higher wages and worker protections. Otherwise, you'll always have a reserve army of scabs in the form of undocumented residents.

Don't migrants tend to get exploited and end up doing the crap jobs that nobody else is willing to do but need to be done anyway?

I just find humor in the hypocrisy of Republicans. Especially when it inevitably backfires on them.
