A multitude of people are being harmed by Trump, Musk and the GOP. Many who voted for Trump. Farmers and ranchers who had sold their foodstuffs to USAID for example. The same people are now having trouble keeping immigrant employees. The administrations illegal attention grabbing stunts have drawn the attention of even the most casual observers of the news. When it finally occurs to Trump and sycophants that they can accomplish their goals via legislation many more people than usual will be paying attention ... and hopefully calling their reps and telling them not to cut programs that are helping them. When it gets personal maybe they will act in their own best interest. Wishful thinking I know but hope is hope.
The people who sold their food products to USAID, are not people they are corporations like Cargill, Carnation, Prudential was in the 1980's the biggest farmer in the country. All grains, from rice to wheat and barley are grown by a handful of corporations, who receive subsidy from the government.
There are a few family farms, but they struggle with debt, the weather, locusts, drought and the market, which the corporate farmers brush off like sand fleas.
Migrant employees are used in poultry processing, meat processing, field hands picking asparagus, fruit, tomatoes. They harvesing of greens is now done by tractor.
Salinas California uses a lot of migrant worker, they grow artichokes and strawberries
