Capitalize a surname? Is that the best response or what? Since trump is also a word, not just a surname, I choose not to capitalize it - to be consistent and fair to the others, I don't capitalize most other names. My choice, like being a trump follower is another poster's choice, or complaining that people who don't agree with them are uneducated, or can't read, or are 'stoopid' or 'losers'..

Not correcting your grammar - I think the it would be more precise if your question were worded '... no illegals have ever been employed by the Clintons?'.

I can't speak for the clintons any more than you can speak for trump. Can you say with 100% certainty that no illegals have ever done any work for you? Illegals have been very likely to have done work for all of us - in restaurants, farms, cleaning motels... and working on trump construction sites.

So because one Trump follower believes that - you ASSume we all do - come on - you know better. We may not be behind the same candidate but I don't throw you in the same category as some of the bullying posters on here who hate Trump.

Dad taught me that everyone deserves fairness, each man is entitled to his own opinion - even if it isn't yours - treat others as you'd like to be treated - and try to give others the benefit of the doubt. There is so much hatred with these Anti Trump people both on these boards and at these rallys and the guy isn't even the nominee yet. This is what has happened to society with the PC and feminists crowd - disagree with me - I'll get you. They expect everyone to believe only what they believe - because they've been coddled all of their lives. Time to grow up.

My sentence was worded perfectly, but thanks for your "input".

And since you can't speak for the Clintons, you shouldn't be speaking about Trump either. You're just another anti-Trump troll with a few ridiculous anecdotes hoping to whip C-D Trump supporters into a frenzy.

BTW, who are you supporting ?

You didn't read the article very well then. "Trump Briarcliff Manor Development LLC" filed work permit paperwork saying that these workers were EWI - "entry without inspection".
EWI = illegal.

So that is what Trump means when he says 'bring jobs back to America.' He means jobs working for him.

You know what he will say when confronted, right? He'll give the same excuse he gave for having been pro-life a few years back. "I didn't know I was going to be running for office." A guy with real principles.

I am very surprised that someone who has expressed so much venom and hate on this board towards certain democratic candidates would then turn around and call anyone who disagrees with your opinion "expressing hatred."

You claim each "man" is entitled to his own opinion, and then claim there is hatred if that "man" doesn't agree with you. Very contradictory and hypocritical assertion. Also--blaming the fact that women don't like Trump on the "feminists crowd" is absurd. Blame it on the real reason--Trump. Unless you literally think that each "man" is entitled to his own opinion, but each "woman" is not.

This is old news and no one cares if he hired Martians. He has thousands of employees and i doubt very much he goes through their individual applications personally and personally does background checks on them. He relies on people that work for him. They aren't perfect and neither is anyone else.

"speak for the Clintons, you shouldn't be speaking about Trump either." Sorry, dude... First Amendment rights and all that. I can speak about anyone, but as I am not a 'surrogate' for any candidate, I cannot speak for them. I speak about lots of candidates. Call it a troll if you like, since you don't agree with what I say.

What is it with y'all, you really, really want to know who everyone is supporting? I'm not supporting anyone, I'm actually supporting truth, justice, and the American way.

Thanks for your input, too!

Whatever happened to 'the buck stops here'? The guy in charge used to take responsibility for the things that happened on his watch. Guess those days are long gone.
