I get it. Middle and working class America, you want your jobs back. You are trying desperately to make ends meet, working to provide for your families. The rust belt has seen jobs diminish as CEOs do business with China and other countries to save money on manufacturing and construction material like steel. Corporate leaders at Ford, GM, and Chrysler are moving jobs offshore. Major high tech companies consistently use cheaper Indian, Russian, Ukraine, Chinese, and Vietnamese workers over the higher paid, higher skilled U.S. markets.
You’re upset that Mexican nationals keep coming over the border to take advantage of our social programs. Large corporate farms continue to hire the cheap labor, sending busses to bring them across the border to pick fruit, and butcher meat. Major construction projects that were once done by skilled union labor are now hired out by corporate leaders who hire illegal immigrants who they know will work for 10 cents on the dollar.
You want someone who can make you feel safe. You worry about your children and what dangers they might have to experience in the world. You’re afraid for your daughters and relaxed laws that favor criminals over the victims. As you see it, the world is full of criminals and terrorism and all around you are dangers that make it impossible to feel comfortable in your own home.
So…your response was to vote for Donald Trump. To you what this country needs is a CEO who can straighten out Washington. Because from where you sit there needs to be a shake-up at the top. Government is the reason for all your pain and that needs to change. What we need is a corporate leader who can bring about real upheaval in Washington and start bringing jobs back to the U.S.
Donald Trump’s hotels are staffed almost exclusively with workers from other countries. He benefits from the lower labor costs that Mexican and other workers will take over the more expensive U.S. labor. He’s a corporate CEO who has constantly gamed the system filing bankruptcy not once, not twice, but six times, regularly using the system to cheat his contractors out of promised payments. He has consistently fought unionization of his properties and broken labor laws to prevent his company from paying staff a fair wage. He built all of his buildings using cheaper materials purchased offshore so he could avoid the higher costs of domestic steel. He offshores all manufacturing for his brand name goods to China so he can save costs.
Your decision to vote Trump into office is the equivalent of handing your Vicodin to a drug addict for safe keeping. You were looking for more jobs, and you’re getting less. You were looking for more control in your financial life and you are getting less. You were looking for someone to keep your daughters safe, and now you are getting a man that will grab her pussy.
Awesome!
