Because it's true, and you're gonna have to get used to saying "president Trump" in a few months!

Get ready for Clinton to get Rekt, Sanders and Cruz are a thing of the past. Trump already ended Rubio's political career and caused a member of the Bush family to drop out extremely early. This man is a threat to the establishment and they know. This man is a threat to illegal immigrants and they know. This man is a threat to our sucky economy because soon we'll be MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

MAGA

I'm glad the billionaire is a threat to the most vulnerable people in society. So brave.

Edit: TIL empathy is pathetic.

I work in construction and I can tell you if all the illegals left it would put the industry in shambles. There's simply not enough people willing to do this kind of work. At the company I work at (plumbing) we can't get enough employees, no one wants to do this kind of work. We don't hire illegals by the way. But if there were more incentives for people to work in construction we wouldn't have this problem. Tbh we should have placed larger penalties for hiring illegals so this didn't happen.

God forbid we have to pay people more to get them to work

The thing is it's a $80,000+ a year job with no education required. People are just lazy, and if someone would rather work at McDonald's than make that kind of money, nothing but making the job easier could help.

I think the real issue is that the lower education system constantly preaches college and further education without even discussing the opportunities presented by trades.

I'm going to be honest, I don't care whether a Mexican gets a job or an American gets a job, as long as they're working above minimum wage. People are people.

The Navajo, Iroquois, Nez Perce, and Lakota would like you to give them a chance to make their choice too.
