“Trump Organization requested record number of foreign workers in 2025”
“The Trump Organization requested 184 foreign workers to work across various company properties, a record number that has increased over the years.”“The company sought to hire workers for temporary positions at Mar-a-Lago, two golf clubs and at Trump Vineyard Estates in Charlottesville, Va., according to data from the Department of Labor.”
“Over the course of Trump’s first term and the first nine months of his second term, the Trump Organization’s visa requests increased from 121 in 2021 to 184 in 2025, according to Forbes. Overall, the company has filed to hire 566 foreign laborers, primarily to work as servers, farm workers, kitchen staff, clerks and housekeepers.”
“Trump defended bringing in foreign workers on Fox News’s “The Ingraham Angle” on Tuesday. He argued the U.S. does not have enough people with “certain talents” to do particular jobs. After Ingraham said bringing in thousands of foreign workers would hurt efforts to raise wages, Trump agreed, but added, “You also do have to bring in talent.”
Got to love Trump’s “defense,” “US does not have enough people with certain talents,” like servers, farm workers, kitchen staff, and housekeepers at a golf resort require “certain talents.” In Trumpland “certain talents” means willingness to work for cheap wages
So much for the America First bullshit
