Let the Dems run on "protecting Avocados" rather than Americans!

I'd rather pay more for Americans to pick our crops than the outrageous cost of paying for law enforcement, imprisonment, education, and medical costs for ILLEGALS!!!

Come through the front door or stay home!

That would be a disaster like Global Warming!!

Funny, a couple of WM store near me are selling them for 39 cents. I’ve purchased 6 the last few days.

Still, how will we survive without avocados?

Let in several million illegals - or like, no avocados dude.

This whining and sniveling is going to be with us so we might as well adjust. We can lose our country or have Mexican avocados.

Nearly half of all imported U.S. vegetables and 40 percent of imported fruit are grown in Mexico

Won't affect me much. Meat's back on the table boys!

If President Trump follows through with his threat to close the Southern Border with Mexico this week, say goodbye to your avocado toast.

What a hardship!!!!

How will we ever manage.

It reminds me of a FReeper whose nutritionist or doctor told him he could eat all the avocados he wanted and he said he already has.

I'm in that boat, too.

California political geniuses voted to dry up the Central Valley which used to feed fruits and veg to the entire world. Now California imports oranges from Mexico?

Sucks to be stupid, right California?

Expect a ton of these types of articles. All the stuff that’s gonna cause the sky to fall when President Trump closes our southern border. Sacrifices must be made and I
I’ll be at the head of the line.

DO IT NOW, PRESIDENT TRUMP!

I didn’t know what an avocado was until I moved to AZ when I was 18. Survived just fine without them.

Besides, there is a lot of open land in the US perfect for growing avocados so no big.
