NYC Mayor Adams Thinks Illegal Aliens Could Be Lifeguards Since ‘They’re Excellent Swimmers’

“How do we have a large body of people that are in our city, our country, that are excellent swimmers and at the same time we need lifeguards.”

A reporter asked New York City Mayor Eric Adams about the lack of lifeguards for the city’s beaches and pools.

Going off on a tangent, Adams indicated that Gotham’s lifeguard shortages could easily be fixed if migrant work visas were being expedited for those jobs that needed to be filled quickly.

The man didn’t stop. Apparently, Democrats think the people can only do certain jobs:

“If we had a plan that said, ‘If there was a shortage of food service workers and those who fit that criteria, we’re going to expedite you,’ if you have experience that you are a nurse and we have nursing shortage, we would expedite you,” he said.

“It’s the same for lifeguards. We have all these eligible people waiting to work, with the skills we need to do the jobs, but we are unable to allow them to work because bureaucracy is in the way.”

Many of the recent illegals are from African nations of Senegal, Mauritania, Ghana and Sudan. No idea why they would be "excellent swimmers".

Maybe he thinks they're the ones who swam to the United States.

"With that comment one might reasonably ask whether NYC Mayor Adams swims in the shallow end of the intelligence pool.

"Why does he assume they can swim well when many were flown into the country."

"They could be in the Olympics."

He is "low tech", and uninformed.

Remember when Algore invented the internet? Some of your elderly friends would forward every joke that they received?

Some of these jokes have been around the internet 6 times.

The Mayor must have just gotten the one about "Why Mexico and Venezuela don't have Olympic teams?"
