I am full of s@#t
Because nothing says you are full of sugar honey ice tea like projecting yourself to be the greatest "jobs president" the universe has ever seen than having a long history of
not actually creating jobs for Americans.
A Reuters analysis of U.S. government data reveals that this is business as usual in the New York property magnate's empire.
Trump owns companies that have sought to import at least 1,100 foreign workers on temporary visas since 2000, according to U.S. Department of Labor data reviewed by Reuters. Most of the applications were approved, the data show.
Nine companies majority-owned by Trump have sought to bring in foreign waitresses, cooks, vineyard workers and other laborers on temporary work-visa programs administered by the Labor Department.
In Trump's defense, this is what many
American businesses have been doing for the past decades, exploiting our country's need for
immigration reform:
The temporary work visa program through which Trump's companies have sought the greatest numbers of workers, H-2B, brings in mostly workers from Mexico. Mexicans made up more than 80 percent of the 104,993 admissions to the United States on H-2B visas in 2013. The Trump companies have sought at least 850 H-2B visa workers.
The H-2B program, which receives little government oversight, is used by companies in sectors ranging from hospitality to forestry to hire foreign workers for temporary jobs. Companies must prove that the jobs are seasonal - and that they tried and failed to hire Americans.
The idea is that these work-visas allow American business the best "talent" from around the world. You're supposed to prove that you can't find an American with the talent to do said job and then, and only then, you can get someone from somewhere else to do the job. Of course, people like The Donald use this to pay women far less than even American waitresses make. They do this because they're greedy, crappy people, who have only their own interests and egos in mind.
