    So Pelosi thinks illegals aren't good for anything except to pick cotton crops. This just shows you how a liberal elitist feels about the little people, they mean nothing to her except for whatever she might gain politically.

    Below is her comment, and below that are just a few of the responses she received.

    Looks like Massachusetts has a use for Latinx people whose only skill is picking apples from a tree.

    Lol... Democrats have been this stuff like this for some time.

    Blacks, they can't get ahead in life without our help.
    Hispanics, they are good for picking crops.

    Not sure how great that would work for oranges. Hear the migrant workers use shoulder bags and lightweight ladders to pick the trees. From there each worker hoofs it over to a piece of farm equipment known as a "goat", and dumps their individual bags.

    The goat drives out to the nearest Access road and it has a hydraulic arm that lifts each of its several large buckets up into a semi trailer.

    Actually she was quoting the words of farmers and growers. It says so directly in your your link. Are farmers and growers all liberal elitists?

    Almost any job can be automated, just depends on the cost.

    Glad to see you back! We got the weaker version of Ian here in NC, and I remarked to my daughter to imagine 5 times this, and thought about you watching your van moving around. Hope everything is well with you!

    The OP left out vital context that completely skewed the meaning of the linked article? I'm shocked - SHOCKED I said! :buggered:

    True. There’s context. She was quoting what the farmers supposedly say which isn’t wrong. But leftists know a little thing about quoting people out of context. A little guy named Trump was at the receiving end of endless “quotes” that he never said and endless interpretations of his words that he never meant. Just par for the course.

    1/6 for example was the biggest. People here still think he told people to storm the capital. I think those in DC understand perfectly what he said and didn’t say but they also know all the stupids out there will believe anything they say, and the MSM certainly won’t correct it. They were the biggest cheerleaders.

    Context, timeline and facts only get it the way of how radicalized partisans want to roll.

    Nancy would have me believe that she is in tune with what growers and pickers are saying. She would also have me believe that her compadres and fellow grifters in Ukraine have the moral high ground.

    Nancy is full of it.

    So you folks think Pelosi spoke to the farmers. Like a buddy of mine on this forum frequently says, if it's not on video then it didn't happen.

    Pelosi wouldn't lower herself to speak with farmers in a red state, and if she did, when did she do it?

    she is saying republicans don't want legal immigrants as they have to pay them more, they want illegal immigrants

    this is why Republicans are against going after employers that hire illegals, they support it

    Thread is just made up outrage over something she didn’t even say.

    But she did say it and she obviously believes it.

    AJ, you frequently say if it's not on tape then it didn't happen. Do you have a video of Pelosi talking to farmers where they told her that they need illegals to pick crops?

    That you even believe anything she says is disturbing.

    She said what she heard from farmers. Are you denying a lot of farm workers are migrants?
