so MAGA farmers chased off immigrant farmworkers because Trump said they were taking American jobs, now they can’t find anyone to pick their crops. Funny how the pick-yourselves-up-by-the-bootstraps crowd suddenly needs someone else to do the work

They are MAGA “make America great again”, they didn’t say when America was at its greatest, to them that may very well be when slavery was legal.

I'm pretty sure for most of them it was the 1800s

They've asked Trump supporters before and they usually say "Uhhhhhh, I don't know, the 50's or 60's."

They have no fucking clue what they actually want, they just needed an excuse to be racist.

The last time America was great was sometime around 4000bc.

An argument could be made for around 1100CE.

I do believe the current administration would have no problems with slavery. Trump will do anything to avoid paying his workers and stiffs them all the time. He’s notorious for paying as little as possible, if he actually pays them. Slavery would not be such a stretch of the imagination.

I'd say about 1152 A.D. was a peak year for America.
