Are the visas his company just applied for exempt?

Which company and what visas?
His golf courses and marilago - year after year applies for a large number of foreign work visas to ship in employees claiming there aren’t any Americans to take those jobs. Which is nonsense. I know quite a few waitresses in Florida and NJ who’d love to work there, rich people tip well

Exempts those already in the country on those visas. So unless his workers didn’t arrive yet or he’s shipping them out anyway he exempted himself. I’m sure we will find out for sure soon

Don’t you think the leader of this country should practice what he’s preaching? Hire American worker and manufacture his merchandise in America?? Otherwise America first is nothing but an empty campaign slogan meant to steer votes and he’s created a situation where he’s not subject to the same rules as everyone else. How don’t you have a problem with that?

Isn’t that why he was trying to bring manufacturing jobs back to America? So that people could have those jobs here? Otherwise they were all farmed out to people in other countries...not his fault but it seems as he’s been trying to correct it.

An article from last year..and who knows if its really true...and even if it was..do Americans want to clean hotel rooms and for the wages on that? Or any of the other jobs that comes from running that kind of business? You can always find someone who is upset that they didn’t get a job.

I think the problem is that the press should have printed only true stories if they wanted people to believe them when they print them..but they printed a lot of lies and went on to try to destroy him as a person using lies and fake news...so then people don’t really know what is true or not. That’s the problem with their kind of fighting..people tend to give the person the benefit of the doubt in that case.

Lisa if that is really what he wanted he would have applied the principles to just own businesses. We have manufacturing plants here, we have waitresses and housekeepers here. He uses immigrants and foreign manufacturing for his own businesses because this is all a campaign slogan meant to get votes. Not because it’s what he believes in. If he did he’d stop exempting himself.

Was it all to get votes? Haha..he got us the lowest unemployment in 50 years..50 years!!! No one in 50 years could do that..why’s that do you think? He did in his first couple of years..and that helped everyone in America. He made a better trade agreement with China for us..brought manufacturing back to America..but not all manufacturing. Probably is still working on that stuff...in between all the media attacks he gets on a daily basis.

If you really want to know if he still is and why he did what he did in his businesses..I suggest you ask him.get it from the horses mouth.

He did it because it’s cheaper Lisa. That’s what business men do. That’s why we are in this boat and exempting himself from restrictions he’s placing on other businesses is only giving his own businesses more of a financial edge over the competition. I have zero respect for conmen or hypocrites. He’s both.

low unemployment means nothing if people still can’t afford basic necessities.

No hun it doesn’t. Minimum wage isn’t enough to cover basic necessities in any of the 50 states. You know that though.

O dear..we are back to the minimum wage argument...:rolleyes:
It’s not an argument. Your sitting here saying that a job means you can afford basic necessities. That isn’t true. If you don’t want to have the discussion stop repeating false claims. Simple.

Not all jobs are minimum wage..and minimum wage jobs were never meant to be supplement jobs or beginner jobs not the main job. Trump gave people a way to move up by creating more jobs..and that is a good thing.

Too bad we help with tourism...Is it really worth the tit for tat response?

EU May Ban Travel from US as it Reopens Borders, Citing Coronavirus Failures
A prohibition of Americans by Brussels partly reflects the shifting pattern of the pandemic. In March, when Europe was the epicenter, Mr. Trump infuriated European leaders when he banned citizens from most European Union countries from traveling to America. Mr. Trump justified the move as necessary to protect the United States, which at the time had roughly 1,100 coronavirus cases and 38 deaths.

Except the vast majority of jobs created were low wage, so how does that work?
