Trump promised to cut inflation and to orchestrate mass deportations. However, his fiscal agenda is undermining his ability to find American workers to replace the illegal aliens. Trump is making the case that we need illegal aliens for blue-collar jobs, but today I make the case why it’s his affinity for Medicaid and refusal to cut spending that is actually disincentivizing Americans to take these jobs. The spending and money-printing are making the cost of living unaffordable, plus recipients get free health care without working, so it’s not worth it for Americans to take these jobs. Now Republicans are suffering all the liabilities of cutting spending without actually doing it and reaping the benefits. I also articulate an economic message Trump could use for younger voters but is sadly missing the opportunity to do so.
