H-2B

I am glad the article mentions H-2B workers, which do supply Trump resorts and hotels with workers from eastern Europe and South America. Other hotels and public venue businesses rely on cheap H-2B labour, and this level of work is what is really sought by Americans who haven't got an education that qualifies them for a lot of jobs. Those Trump supporters who want to close the borders to foreign workers are not, mostly, looking to be coders and sysadmins but janitors, waitresses, pool-boys, kitchen staff and hotel cleaning maids. They turn up for a job and there's a Romanian doing the job for less, on an H-2B visa.
