@omarglobal: U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday he is willing to let migrant laborers stay in the United States if the farmers they work for will vouch for them. At a campaign-style speech at the Iowa state fairgrounds, Trump said he is working with the Homeland Security Department to help farmers who depend on migrant laborers for their seasonal needs. He said he will also work with the hotel industry on the issue. Trump has been pursuing a hard-line policy on migration and his U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has been leading an effort to deport people who crossed into the United States illegally. This has led to some complaints from farmers that their crops are at risk due to a depleted work force. "If a farmer is willing to vouch for these people in some way, Kristi, I think we're going to have to just say that's going to be good, right?" "We don't want to do it where we take all of the workers off the farms," he added, speaking in a Midwestern state where farming is a dominant industry. "Because we want all the criminals out. Everybody agrees that we're finding the criminals, the murderers, the drug dealers. We're getting them the hell out of here. But the farmers, some of the farmers, many of you sitting right here—I have four friends right in the fifth row—but some of the farmers, they've had people working for them for years. And we're going to do something. We're working with Kristi, and we're going to do something that we're going to sort of put the farmers in charge. And if somebody, if a farmer's been with one of these people that worked so hard—they bend over all day, we don't have too many people who can do that—but they work very hard, and they know them very well. And some of the farmers are literally, you know, they cry when they see this happen. If a farmer is willing to vouch for these people in some way, Kristi, I think we're going to have to just say that's going to be good, right? You know, we're going to be good with it because we don't want to do it where we take all of the workers off the farms. We want the farms to do great like they're doing right now". #donaldtrump #kristinoem #farmers #latino #undocumented #illegalaliens #massdeportation #shortvideo
