Hypocrisy Knows No Bounds

When Donald Trump whips up his base, he commonly extols them to "buy Americans" and "hire American." As has long been documented, that's advice he routinely ignores himself.

Buzzfeed broke the story on Friday (link here) that Trump's Mar-A-Lago resort regularly refuses to hire Americans who apply for work and instead brings in cheap immigrants on short-term visas as cooks, servers, and housekeepers.

Yet Trump has repeatedly claimed the reason he hires temporary foreign workers is because he can't find American workers to hire. The Buzzfeed piece reveals, of course, that's a lie.

Lying and hypocrisy are the two pillars of Trumpism. It's amazing his cult can't see what so often is in plain sight and certain easily found on the internet.
