I realize it makes it easier for you to think I hate Trump, but the truth is I don’t. I think I understand him better than you do.

It’s called greasing the palm.....

Charles and David Koch, Sheldon Adelson and Charles Shwabb don’t give to leading liberal politicians to name a few.

I am aware of illegal Polish workers hired by a construction contractor years ago. The foreign workers that he has at his resorts (Mar-a-lago etc) are there on H2B visas. Anybody with a seasonal/resort business will tell you many times this is absolutely necessary. And a business could not survive without them. Unfortunately suitable American workers are hard to find. They don’t want to work weekends. For some reason they seem to think cleaning rooms is below them. Many cannot pass the background or drug test. And who wants a waitress with blue hair, face piercings and a neck tattoo.

You must be kidding with this right? Who wants to be given room and board and work in an exclusive Palm Beach club during the winter? Ever try running a few adds in Alaska, Minnesota or the Dakotas? Trump is willing to fly people from Romania, Bulgaria and other places in Europe, provide a place for them to live and pay them? And you honestly think Americans wouldn’t do those jobs?

Don’t sugarcoat it, he wants cheap labor. That’s why he’s doing it. He wants to line his pockets with more profits and the law allows it, so he’s taking advantage of it. Don’t pretend otherwise. Why not set the example and help Americans with a good job, learn a new skill, develop contacts with the rich and famous? He already has billions.

I don’t have the motivation to respond to the rest, maybe tomorrow.

Koch brothers and Adelson give to the cheap labor express candidates.

As far as H2B visas go. I have run a resort in Wisconsin Dells WI, the Waterpark Capital, and can tell you it is impossible to find enough workers. Even maids at $15 an hour. Nobody wants that job. Or like I said they can’t pass a background or drug test. Have people from Alaska, Minnesota or the Dakotas applied for Trump jobs. If not, they really cant bitch, can they? And I don’t know what you mean that he pays them less. They still are paid at least minimum wage.

I have a good friend who is in human resources at Potawatomi Casino in Milwaukee WI. Great benefits. Look on their website. They cannot find enough workers....even though Milwaukee is loaded with welfare recipients. Like I said, nobody can pass a background or drug test.
