    I get that the argument is supposed to appeal to the right wing types in order to shift their actions away from mass deportation.

    It is a statement about the short term impacts of mass deportation by removing the majority of people that do a certain type of work that has nobody waiting to fill the positions. It is actually contradicting the right wing talking point that immigrants are stealing jobs from citizens, by pointing out that they aren’t stealing jobs from anyone.
