Trump Supporters ‘Tricked by the Devil’ are Now Facing Financial Ruin: ‘I Feel So Stupid’

Eddie Devine voted for Trump, but worries he may go out of business. Here's why.

Small business owners who supported Donald Trump are complaining about troubles hiring foreign seasonal labor the Lexington Herald-Leader reports [3].

The newspaper interviewed multiple landscaping business owners who claim they are unable to hire Americans for the same wages.

Eddie Devine voted for Trump, but worries he may go out of business if he is unable to continue hiring 20 foreign workers a season though the H-2B visa program.

“I feel like I’ve been tricked by the devil,” Devine admitted. “I feel so stupid.”

Devin says Trump's policies are more about race than economics, noting that Trump properties in New York and Florida rely upon the H-2B visa program for 144 jobs a year.

“I think there’s a war on brown people,” he argued. “I want to know why it’s OK for him to get his workers, but supporters like me don’t get theirs."

“We live and die by these visas,” said Ken Monin, owner of Monin Construction. “Last year we about went bankrupt. The workers we were supposed to get in March didn’t show up until August because they couldn’t get visas.”

“Americans don’t want most of these jobs,” Monin claimed.

Apparently Trump hires some 50 Romanians and Mexicans for his properties in Florida.

Would you make beds or edge lawns?

Sure...for good pay. I think the pertinent question is "what would you pay to stay in a hotel, or for your yardwork/produce?"

The idiot wasn't tricked, Trump ran on this, it was a huge part of his platform.

Btw, this also happened under Obama when he finally started rounding people up. Of course libs supported it then.

What do you think minimum wage should be?

Good pay? Pay is commensurate with skill, knowledge and experience. In a capitalist society, you get paid what the free market will bear, not what the government mandates.

The only thing that can kill Capitalism is Government intervention. America's free market system is the best in the world. Only our bloated, corrupt, incompetent federal government could screw it up.

When I was a kid we had nothing so any work that paid was great. In those times fast food and other sources of work didn't exist. I wonder why whites, blacks, and Hispanic kids from poor areas couldn't be bused or do this work? Even college in-debt students could do the work? I guess though I live in a bit of an imaginary world where sense dominates. LOL

But on the other hand you have this crap too: http://www.orlandosentinel.com/busin...213-story.html

There are so many industries being hurt by Trump’s policies, I was reading about the fishing and crabbing industries that have no workers. The costs will increase because of it.

Would you go work your back off in the hot summer sun for $7.25/hour? How about $10/hour? $20/hour? What happens when summer -- and landscaping season -- ends? Where will you work then?
