The key takeaway for me from this is that they have no understanding of the MAGA mindset, at all, they're projecting again.
For example, if the net result of deporting all those illegal immigrants was that people had to pick their own produce or pay more for it (because no-one is being paid slave wages any more because they'd be deported if they complained etc.) then MAGA would just do one of the following (not exhaustive list):-
Pick their own fruit and appreciate being outside and in-touch with nature/their food again
Work harder to earn more money to pay the additional cost, knowing that this supports the economy
Come up with a way to make fruit picking cheap without using slave labor
You are exactly right! They demand people work for slave-rate wages.
Dems are true to their heritage:
The southern plantations used slaves for the same reasons. Slavery was on the way out. Until the cotton gin permitted BIG COTTON.
"The invention of the cotton gin caused massive growth in the production of cotton mostly in the South. Cotton production expanded from 750,000 bales in 1830 to 2.85 million bales in 1850. . . . the region became even more dependent on plantations that used black slave labor with plantation agriculture becoming the largest sector of its economy."

I'm thinking #3 myself.
