We haven't talked much about the Senate race in Arkansas, but maybe we should take a closer look. Democrat nominee Hallie Shoffner appeared on a podcast and wanted us all to know that illegal aliens are the hardest-working farmworkers she knows. Why, she'd readily trade five Americans for one illegal alien farmworker.

Arkansas Democrat Hallie Shoffner says on tape that she “would trade five Americans for one” illegal immigrant worker.
Sounds like she also hired illegal immigrants herself. pic.twitter.com/wlKp5gKnj6
Every farmer will tell you they did at one time or another.

"And why is it that there's no pathway for them to work here legally?" Well, we do have something called the H-2A visa for temporary agricultural workers.
THIS is a candidate for public office?

Can we trade her?

She should be the first person of five for the trade. If not, she needs to politely close her mouth.

She’s a liar because there are many programs for farmers to bring in their cheap labor.

Just because you work really hard and spend money in our country doesn’t mean you are deserving of citizenship. There’s a legal pathway for citizenship that has been in place for years. Follow that instead of trying to take shortcuts for cheap labor and votes.

Incredible sound bite.

Sounds like subjective analysis from someone who doesn't understand immigration law. A visit to discuss potentially unlawful employment practices is in order. ICE are some of the hardest working AMERICANS and your ilk is making it very difficult to do their jobs. Also unlawful.

There’s a legal way to enter the country. Maybe they should try that.

Is she trying to court votes from farmers who employ illegal aliens or votes from illegal aliens?
