They are playing "wall builders" for fools...although the fools who allow themselves to be played are just as involved.

When someone doesn't speak English and can't write or read, that's a hint. Of course Trump and his employees knew and still know. They laugh at the peasants who champion their wall.

Hey, look over there......not here! That's their motto.

Trump has lost tens of billions in his life by being a poor investor - without cheap labor he'd be losing even more. Don't you feel bad for him?

Oh gee, maybe because he is squatting in the highest office of the land and is supposed to be under scrutiny and held to a high standard. We will not even mention that illegal immigration is the cornerstone of his BS platforms.

The point of this thread is that by hiding these illegals, these illegals' backgrounds could not be properly checked and thereby the safety of the president staying at these resorts could not be verified.

Read about this yesterday. Doubtful President Trump knew that a handful of the workers there possessed fraudulent SSN's and papers. Sure somebody there knew but wouldn't think he did. That's what other people in management positions are for and I'd imagine it would be their job to screen and hire workers.
Also, are we really gonna take the word and believe these who have come forward with their claims? I mean, they already admitted that they lied before and it's very well possible they are doing so again.
The FBI should investigate where these false papers and SSN's came from and charge those who provided same said. Also the IRS should investigate whose numbers and information they've been using so as an innocent victim, who may have no knowledge that their information is being used, gets penalized.

Apparently the FBI has taken their word seriously enough to launch an investigation...

So you agree that illegals are a safety threat? Why are the dims not doing anything to protect all Americans?

If he is actually convicted of "personally" knowing it I'll be the first to call him a hypocrite but not until then.





It is funny how the Dems are so quick to dump on Trump.



Illegal aliens are crafty in dodging laws so who is to say that they did not have false documents or a stolen identity they were using to get the job? How would Trump know this unless he personally hired them?


Did we blame Obama when a Democrat mayor in some little town did something against the law?



It doesn't matter to the Left though they will use anything to discredit Trump.

Here in Florida we residents know there is a problem with businesses hiring illegal immigrants for work. We also know that Florida businesses bring in a lot of immigrants on work visas even for jobs that would have plenty of applicants like software programming or engineering (we have over 7 state colleges here so STEM grads are plentiful).


Its allowed because our state congress and state Governors (on both sides) believes it helps them look business friendly on the high end for contributions and keeps prices down on the low end. The population in Florida changes constantly so trying to get the electorate to focus on state issues is difficult when they have no roots in the state. And no one wants to pay an extra $50 or a Disney ticket, extra $40 for a hotel room, or an extra $1 for your bell peppers. But we pay a cost that is much higher than that since we have to subsidize those that cannot find a job or have less money circulating in the local economy due to low wages held down by cheap labor. Which would you do for your business: Hire a Visa immigrant at 50k annual to program software and provide no benefits, or hire an American at 70k plus benefits. I know which one Florida businesses would pick.

If they actually did that, it would be a felony.

Are you making this up?
