CNN anchor Jake Tapper got smacked down by President Donald Trump advisor Stephen Miller after he made the same argument for keep illegal aliens in the workforce that plantation owners made for keeping slaves.

“Let me ask you a question about, because one of the reasons that President Trump got elected, according to President Trump in an interview, I think it was with Kristen Welker of NBC, was because of grocery prices. Not the only reason, but a reason. High prices, inflation, especially at the grocery,” Tapper said on Tuesday.

“The Department of Agriculture says that between 2020 and 2022, 42 percent of crop workers were undocumented immigrants. And in many cases, as you know, these migrants do jobs many Americans do not want to do. So, how do you — how does President Trump make sure that the effort to deport people who are not in this country legally doesn’t end up hurting Americans who want safe borders absolutely, but also don’t want to see even more higher prices in groceries?” he said before Miller clapped back.

“Well, I’m sure it’s not your position, Jake, you’re just asking the question that we should supply America’s food with exploitative, illegal alien labor. I obviously don’t think that’s what you’re implying. Only 1 percent of alien workers in the entire country work in agriculture. The top destination for illegal aliens are large cities like New York, like Los Angeles. And small industrial towns, of course, all across the heartland, as we’ve seen with the Biden flights. None of those illegal aliens are doing farm work. Those 30, 000 illegal aliens that Joe Biden dumped into Springfield –,” Miller said before Tapper cut him off to try to save the case he was making.

But Miller, who offered to give a half-an-hour explanation, which Tapper rebuffed, was undeterred.

“I’ll do the whole answer. The illegal aliens that Joe Biden brought into our country are not full-stop doing farm work. They are not. The illegal aliens he brought in from Venezuela, from Haiti, from Nicaragua, they are not doing farm work. They are in our cities collecting welfare,” the advisor said.

“As for the farmers, there is a guest worker program that President Trump supports. Over time as well, we will transition into automation, so we’ll never have to have this conversation ever again. But there’s no universe in which this nation is going to allow the previous president to flood our nation with millions and millions of illegal aliens who just get to stay here. And we are especially not going to allow a subset of those illegal aliens to rape and murder our citizens,” Miller said.

“So, we are going to unapologetically enforce our immigration laws, and as I’m sure you will celebrate, we are going to unleash the power and might of the U.S. government to eradicate the presence of transnational threats on our soil,” he said.
