Trump’s Mar-a-Lago is looking to hire 80 workers from OTHER countries. Last year, he hired 78 foreign workers there. This, coming from the man who spews garbage about immigrants and holds kids in dirty cages. The hypocrisy is enough to make you hurl.😡😡👇

..............................The H-2B is a visa that is targeted to low-cost, low-skilled workers and is not under any executive review. H2-Bs, in other words, provide temporary work visas for people to fill seasonal jobs that Americans don’t want.

Last year, Trump banned residents of Haiti from obtaining those visas, which caused some headaches at Mar-a-Lago. The resort reportedly employs more Haitians than nearly any other nationality. (Romania is the only other one that comes close, according to The New Yorker.)......................................

1. I have a theory why he does that,

along with it being cheap labor.

Just like he orders Big Macs on the spur of the moment so that they can't be poisoned, I'm guessing he can better screen foreigners wouldn't want to hire an American who could turn out to be a mole.

2. 80 new workers? At a golf resort??

How bad is the turn over rate at Mar-a-Lago?

I was once a member at a high class golf club, and I never saw more than half a dozen new workers in any year. Staff was happy there and had many long termers.

3. I think it may be seasonal for them.

4. Florida has only 2 seasons......

Very hot and a little less hot! I live there now.

The club I belonged to was in Washington state and they have much more pronounced season changes. So yes, they placed some workers on furlough during winter, but most came back to work as weather turned warmer in March.
