    Trump made the most use of his undocumented workers, using them until the end of the growing season before dumping them.



    Trump Organization fires more undocumented workers — a year after its use of illegal labor was revealed

    excerpt:

    "CHARLOTTESVILLE — Nearly a year after the Trump Organization pledged to root out undocumented workers at its properties, supervisors at the Trump Winery on Monday summoned at least seven employees and fired them because of their lack of legal immigration status, according to two of the dismissed workers.

    The timing of the firings at the rural Virginia winery, 11 months after the company began purging the ranks of undocumented greenskeepers and cooks at Trump golf courses, came during the vineyard’s winter downtime. Workers had finished the arduous annual grape harvest, which involved working 60-hour weeks and overnight shifts under floodlights.

    Two of the fired workers — Omar Miranda, a 42-year-old tractor driver from Honduras, and a second employee who spoke on the condition of anonymity — said they thought the company had held off on firing them until after the year’s work was complete, taking advantage of their labor for as long as possible. Both had worked at the winery for more than a decade."

    Trump would also say that if he is not reelected in 2020, then 2021 will never arrive.

    Regardless of whether he is reelected, when 2021 arrives, Trump will claim that it wouldn't have if it hadn't been for something he did that prevented the end of the world.

    Similar to the Grinch, Trump shut down the government during Christmas season 2018 in the name of trying to force Congress to make U.S. taxpayers finance his border wall that he said Mexico would finance. He could even get what he wanted when Republicans controlled both the House and Senate.

    While the Grinch stole the children's candy canes out of the hands while they slept on Christmas Eve, he didn't go nearly as nasty as Trump did when he separated migrant children from their parents and put them in cages to try to coerce Congress on immigration issues and wall financing.

    Trump served the Clemson football team Big Macs at the White House reception because the cooks and other staff weren't available because of his government shut down. A class act.

    He should have arranged the pile of big mac boxes in the shape of a border wall and stuck some straws vertically to look like barbs.

    I'm afraid it was a lot earlier than that--going back at least to the McCarthy era!

    the need for separation was to determine whether or not those children really belonged to the "parents" or not. cases of child rentals were reported. remember they came across our border ILLEGALY

    And all the White people came across the border illegally. Just ask someone at the Pine Ridge Reservation.

    Trump's Benghazi.



    Trump tries to avoid his own Benghazi

    Trump tries to avoid his own Benghazi

    excerpt:

    "ALM BEACH, Fla. — The Trump administration’s decision to deploy Marines in response to an assault on the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad shows its eagerness to avoid a repeat of the Benghazi controversy that dogged the Obama administration and Hillary Clinton’s State Department.

    After supporters of the Iranian-backed militia group Kataib Hezbollah attacked the embassy compound in protest of U.S. airstrikes over the weekend, Defense Secretary Mark Esper announced he was “sending additional forces to support our personnel at the Embassy.”

    Those forces come from the very unit that was created in the wake of the deadly 2012 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi attack to rapidly come to the aid of embattled embassies in the Middle East."
