Billionaire mogul Donald Trump announced his presidential bid on June 16, and included in his speech were comments about illegal immigrants bringing crime, drugs, and being “rapists,” which pushed Trump into the spotlight, both as a presidential candidate, and as the developer of the latest Trump Hotel in Washington D.C., which has employed undocumented workers in its construction process. According to a report from the Washington Post, at the site of the Old Post Office Pavilion in D.C., five blocks from the White House on Pennsylvania Avenue, Trump is funding the construction of a $200 million hotel. Several of the workers building the hotel told the Post that they came to the U.S. through immigration programs from El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala, while others “quietly acknowledged that they remain in the country illegally.” In his speech, Trump said, “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best,” instead they’re sending people that “have lots of problems” who are “bringing drugs, they’re bringing crime, they’re rapists, and some I assume are good people.” “It’s something ironic,” Ivan Arellano, a worker and immigrant from Mexico who became a U.S. citizen through marriage, told the Washington Post. “The majority of us are Hispanics, many who came illegally. And we’re all here working very hard to build a better life for our families.” Daniel Gonzalez, a sheet metal worker who came to the U.S. in the 1980s from El Salvador and became a U.S. citizen when a judge granted him asylum, told the Post that he is worried about the possibility of Trump’s comments escalating “into a bigger problem,” that could lead to workers like him losing their jobs. “Do you think that when we’re hanging out there from the eighth floor that we’re raping or selling drugs?” asked Ramon Alvarez, a window worker from El Salvador. “We’re risking our lives and our health. A lot of the chemicals we deal with are toxic.” Michael Cohen, executive vice president and legal counsel to Trump, told the Washington Post that Trump followed all of the guidelines for hiring and that when he hired Lend Lease as a contractor for the project, it became that company’s “obligation to check all workers on site.” Trump released a statement on Monday, clarifying his comments and acknowledging the fact that he has “lost a lot during this Presidential run” because of his comments on Mexican immigrants. Following the comments, several major companies cut ties with Trump, including Univision, NBC, Macy’s, Serta and NASCAR. Trump said that these companies appear to have “taken the weak and very sad position of being politically correct even though they are wrong in terms of what is good for our country.” In his statement, Trump reiterated his position, and said that the Mexican Government is “forcing their most unwanted people into the United States” and that they are “in many cases, criminals, drug dealers, rapists, etc.” Trump used the example of Kate Steinle, a woman in San Franciso who was killed over the weekend when she was shot in what appeared to be a random bullet that allegedly came form the gun of an illegal immigrant and felon who had been deported to Mexico five times before. “This is merely one of thousands of similar incidents throughout the United States,” said Trump, who claimed that his initial comments were “deliberately distorted by the media.” Workers leave the site of the future Trump International Hotel, which is at the site of the Old Post Office Pavilion in Washington.

Trump added, “Making taxpayers pay for 351,000 criminals who should never have been here in the first place is ridiculous.” Trump noted that even the government’s own figures estimated the incarceration costs of these illegal criminals is $1.1 billion. Perhaps even more staggering than the economic costs are the human costs, wrote Trump. He cited the GAO’s figures which reveal that criminal illegal aliens commit acts that result in an average of seven arrests. Trump also pointed out the New York Times’ 2009 reporting on the fact that one out of every three federal prison inmates is Latino. He also chronicled the violence against Border Patrol agents, as well as the notoriously violent MS-13 gang’s crimes against citizens. In Time to Get Tough, Trump also emphasized the necessity of finishing the border fence and cited the success rates of the double- and triple-layered fencing used in some places that have sent border-crossing rates plunging. “Properly built walls work,” wrote Trump. “We just need the political will to finish the job.” So why are Univision and others only now taking issue with Trump’s longstanding and factually argued opposition to criminal illegal aliens? One possible answer: Trump continues to surge in the polls. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/07/06/trump-on-criminal- illegals-both-sides-need-to-grow-up-and-put-americas-interests-first/
The documents they submitted when hired say they're legal. If they lied ... that's somehow Trump's fault?
The GOP and other slaves of the democrat would like us to believe that Donald should check each and every applicant for his company and his companies subs, the low information voter and the haters of truth and the republic will agree.
Because he's not a nice "play by the rules" billionaire like Bill Gates, Warren Buffet and George Soros. He says mean and nasty things that might fire up the hayseeds and the rubes. It's best to keep us ens occupied with things like Confederate flags and Bill Cosby news - NOT a literal invasion that might have real world effects. Besides, he probably even has a Confederate flag hidden in the attic of one of his mansions. Worst sin of all - he's wandered off the "ruling class" reservation.
The GOP has backed illegal aliens ever since Lincoln's reconquistas invaded the Confederate States of America. The truth will set you free.
Out of 22,450 employees, Trump is to be held personally accountable to identify and weed out a couple of basic level construction employees who either used stolen identities or lied on their job applications….no way, Jose. Get fucking real and stop with the nitpicking….already. Wait, I'm posting to hondo....scratch the "get real."
You can't have a construction site with out illegal aliens. Its just reality these days. All the legal kids are doped up and don't want to work hard for fair pay. I wish it were not so but I see it in my neck of the construction world. All you can do is kick out the illegal aliens and pay will rise for the citizens so they can have a fair wage. We can all bitch about it but the truth is America is broken and its not going to get fixed easily or soon.

The truth will set you free. Yup. Low cost labor has always been a goal of CEO's. Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
You do have a point. Most young Americans seem to have plenty of "mama money" today and wouldn't work as tasters in a pie factory,never mind hard,dirty,or dangerous jobs.

... where they rape white women every single day after building Trump's new tower.
No one can say that they have ever heard me say anything positive about the GOP, nor has anyone ever read any where I was other than opposed to the GOP.
We don't need illegal aliens for that, the Clinton's can handle it! They're multicultural too.
Kinda odd to use a pre-2008 photo of Teh Hildebeeste emphasizing Huma Abedin. Her Thighness had a better figure back then. And Huma had not been through her Weiner scandal back then.
Looks like Ellen Degeneres with Hitlery, not Huma. In a Cop Culture, the Bill of Rights Doesn’t Amount to Much Yeah. Huma is a bit darker than that.
Both I believe, with the arrow pointing at Huma. I picked that picture because it looks like a dyke rape gang on the prowl.
Well, that's so obvious that it barely merits comment. : )

Americans who have no experience with, or knowledge of, tyranny believe that only terrorists will experience the unchecked power of the state. They will believe this until it happens to them, or their children, or their friends.
