eauty writes its own rules. American companies should hire Americans first, argues the official “Positions” section of Donald Trump’s campaign website. Yet one of Mr. Trump’s longtime companies, Trump Models, is dominated by workers not born in the U.S. During the most recent New York Fashion Week we spoke to some of the women represented by Trump.
“With 92 million Americans outside the workforce and incomes collapsing, we need companies to hire from the domestic pool of unemployed. Petitions for workers should be mailed to the unemployment office, not the USCIS,” which is the Immigration Service, says Mr. Trump’s website.
Will Mr. Trump’s modeling agency stop representing women from other countries? Is he having trouble finding enough attractive women in the US?
And remember that the criticism from former rival Marco Rubio that a subcontractor for Trump hired Polish workers many years ago? Well, Trump Models is still dipping into the Polish talent pool. The company’s website recently trumpeted the arrival of a striking new model with the headline: “We are excited to introduce our stunning new face Marta Dow from Poland.” Welcome to the party, Marta.
Not all of the models featured in this video, which was produced by Heat Street in partnership with FreeMedia, are represented by Trump Models.

This might be the dumbest post I’ve ever seen on FR.
Congrats. It had to climb over a bunch of others to get there.
“This might be the dumbest post I’ve ever seen on FR.”
Even Trump’s wives are not ‘made in the US’ ...
Lol. successful models are selected from a very small pool - worldwide - of candidates with the attributes to succeed. It’s sort of like the NBA and MLB and other professional sports where American teams recruit worldwide. But maybe you’d like to prohibit that also.
“Trump Models, is dominated by workers not born in the U.S.”
Are they here illegally? If not, how is it hypocritical of Trump?
Two out of three anyway. I thought Marla Maples was a US citizen.
I guess they think Trump paid the Models Parents to “manufacture” them Overseas.
Apparently the FR Bilge Pump is out of commission.
“Are they here illegally? If not, how is it hypocritical of Trump?”
Better reread the article as if one does, one answers one’s questions.
Or do Trumpbots read?
Polish women are babes.
There’s a gay thread around somewhere above or below that might interest you.
"...Not all of the models featured in this video, which was produced by Heat Street in partnership with FreeMedia, are represented by Trump Models..."
You are really beyond pathetic. Most asinine post this election season. You deserve any and all ridicule you get for posting this
Moron alert, Trump is opposed to illegal immigrantion. In modeling you sometimes need a certain look.
But really.
How is having foreign models legally working for a modelling agency anywhere near as scandalous as Heidi Cruz at a global trade desk at Goldman-Sachs. She’s on leave, she hasn’t resigned, and she’s working on the campaign, so it’s a fair issue.
Good grief, it’s not like we’re talking about lettuce pickers or anything here.
Besides, have you been to a Wal-Mart lately? If so, then you understand why Trump doesn’t hire very many American models.
” It’s sort of like the NBA and MLB and other professional sports where American teams recruit worldwide. But maybe you’d like to prohibit that also.”
The NBA does not go out of its way to say ‘hire American’ whereas the Donald does.
So why he is believable in any other area if he cannot find enough beauties in this country?
Trump has a thing for Slav women. He hires what he likes.
A blog trying to get hits, no thanks, never heard of it
How about his billions of dollars worth of real estate development all over the United States and the hundreds of thousands of workers that constructed them, were they american made? And the tens of millions of dollars of property taxes paid is that American made? As the first poster replied, this is the dumbest thread on the board.
The poster has been here only 4 months.....
Typical response, no answer, just attack, attack.
Alinsky rule # 12 is being practiced by trumpbots.
