At his Mar-a-Lago resort, Donald Trump continues to meet with top advisers to formulate a plan for how exactly his administration will begin to implement his planned deportation of millions of immigrants shortly after he takes office on Jan. 20 of next year.
Ironically, however, Trump’s business is actively hiring a record number of immigrant workers for his own purposes, according to a report from CNN.
CNN political correspondent Sara Murray noted this morning on the network that Trump is employing foreign workers at a record pace.
“In 2024, the Trump Organization businesses were approved to hire 209 foreign guest workers,” she said. “This is… nearly double from the number a decade ago. It’s the highest number for the Trump businesses we have for any year on record, according to government data.”
“These workers mostly come through” a program that “allows for hiring foreign workers when there aren’t American workers who are able, willing, available to do this kind of temporary work,” Murray added.
What sort of temporary work? Most of those hired have been as cooks and housekeepers.
Trump and his allies made demonization of immigrants the centerpiece of the 2024 campaign, even suggesting that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, were responsible for “eating” pets that had gone missing in the town.
When asked for proof of such allegations, Trump said he was merely repeating what he’d heard from Springfield residents.
However, local and state officials later contradicted Trump, saying there was no evidence of his specious utterings.
Donald Trump is a bigot, a racist, and a hypocrite. His plans for this country are likely to destroy the very fabric of what makes us human. And we cannot let that happen.
