Have you noticed, Trump has pretty much stopped talking about new jobs?
That's because instead of talking the talk, he just walks the walk.
He just quietly hired 78 foreign workers to staff his clubs in Palm Beach and Jupiter. No, not the planet, nutters.
Obviously he prefers his employees and his wives to be foreigners. Shouldn't this upset his crazy followers? Nah.
Trump Said He Would Bring Jobs Back To The Country. He Just Quietly Hired 78 Foreign Workers.
"Earlier this month, Trump filed temporary visa applications for 78 positions for servers, housekeepers, and cooks to staff his Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach and the Trump National Golf Club in Jupiter, citing an inability to find Americans who can fill the positions. The positions pay $10.17 an hour for housekeepers, $11.13 an hour for servers, and $12.74 for cooks, according to
Buzzfeed."
"“You can’t get help,” Trump
said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” last year. “Getting help in Palm Beach during the season is almost impossible.” Yet, when
Buzzfeed reached out to a nearby job placement agency, Tom Veenstra, a senior director at Palm Beach’s career services center, said there was a database of more than 1,300 people who had an interest in some of these very hospitality positions. Other hotels in the area have sought out Veenstra’s services, but Mar-a-Lago was not one of them."
"If anything, Trump has proven to be more than comfortable and adept at finding foreign workers to staff his various properties. Undocumented construction workers were found to be
working at his latest hotel in Washington, D.C. as well as in his
restaurant in the chic SoHo neighborhood of New York City. And once he’s hired them, Trump has a
habit of underpaying his employees, as he allegedly did with
200 undocumented Polish workers who were contracted to raze a building in midtown Manhattan to make room for his Trump Tower."
