Claiming a shortage of workers for the hospitality industry, Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago club has requested and obtained permission to hire 70 foreign workers. The claim of a shortage of available workers is disputed:
'"We currently have 5,136 qualified candidates in Palm Beach County for various hospitality positions listed in the Employ Florida state jobs database," CareerSource spokesman Tom Veenstra said Friday.'
70 is a slight increase over last year, when 64 foreign workers were hired.
"Making America Great Again" by hiring foreigners? Perhaps what is required is higher pay, not foreigners.

Hillary is the one that refuses to look in the mirror. She has blamed everyone else for her losing the election to Trump. It was Bernie disrupting loyal democrat voters, it was Comey and mentioning email issues, it was Russia hacking. After all, she deserved it and was entitled to the presidency.
What a load of crap.
I do honestly believe that Hillary would be doing a better job at president right now than Trump is. Congress surely wouldn't have wasted 6 months trying to replace Obamacare with "No care except for millionaires." She wouldn't be having a d!ck p!ssing contest with North Korea over twitter. She wouldn't have had the FCC gut all network neutrality, eliminate consumer privacy protection at ISPs, or fight against community broadband. She wouldn't be trying to completely subvert the CFRB and toss it out (admittedly with her banker friends she probably would have tried to weaken some things there) She wouldn't have hired Betsy Devos to f-over students while letting bad for-profit colleges and the loan industry rape them raw. She probably would have had a response sent to PR, instead of having less than 50% power restored to the island 2 months after the hurricane struck. Not to mention remove all references in government to "climate change" and withdraw from the paris accords. Or refuse to divest stocks into a blind trust let alone still own/control a private hotel chain. (and the list goes on and on...)
That being said... I wouldn't vote for hillary. She is a crook. Her whole platform was I'm not Trump. She had no real plan or election message. After all, she thought she was entitled to it. And against Trump... Half the Republican party hated Trump before the election what did she have to worry about... of course she doesn't believe that half the Democrats hate her as well. (This truly was an election of the absolute worse candidates ever... I'd rather have G. Bush for a 3rd term than either of the 2 major candidates that our awful 2 party system left us with.) I actually voted for Obama... twice... and did not regret it... But last year... I too voted for Johnson because the other choices were f-ing horrible.
TL:DR. Hillary would have been better than Trump but she did nothing to prove to voters that she should be elected and loss it due to her lack of actually campaigning. She thought it was in the bag and her entitlement, only to blame others when she lost.
The 2 party system does nothing but keep the worse of us in power and forces people to choose the lesser of two evils. (and damn, there were few people/things lesser than these two.) Until people actually vote 3rd party, nothing will improve with the 2 rotting parties currently in charge.
Now with 5 covid vaccine shots/boosters altering my DNA :P

I think she wouldn't have come off as sooooooo insane, but I think she would have fucked Americans as much, she just would have hidden it better.
That aside, yes you need s third party down there. Bernie should run independently and have his slogan as "I won't fuck your asses like the other guys have".
Or.... Whatever.
Fecking Hillary. Fecking Trump. You need REAL change, REAL choice.
