2. The U.S. is addicted to its underground economy.

The 47 regime's terror tactics are aimed to accomplish one thing: Massive "self-deportation." Yes, they are hellbent on deporting large numbers, but the real goal is an even more massive outflow of "self-deportees."

If they succeed, and actually dismantle the underground economy, the entire U.S. economy will shrink and teeter.

And once again, pissed off Americans will vote out Republicans and look to Democrats to "fix" it all. Tragically, this time, the government, economy, healthcare system, scientific infrastructure, safety nets, on and on, will be broken like they have never been broken before.
