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.

    listen, at least the democrats rigged it from within the democrats.

    the republicans got rigged by russia and they gave us a stooge everyone intelligent resents to some extent, if not completely.

    i refuse both outcomes, but the lesser evil is internal rigging.

    we as a people can at least punish the democratic party for their actions. we can't punish republicans for being so stupid to go along with it to push their agenda

    make being someone else's bitch great again should be the new US motto because it'd work for both parties.
