Classic that you don't get informed before posting. -- "2/3 of Donald Trump's wives were immigrants.

Concentrated into the hands of the few, at low tax rates (often subsidized) while the government high ups end up in consultancies later on... Cash rape for the few, no benefits to the larger economy other than a few jobs that eventually dry up and go away. -- "2/3 of Donald Trump's wives were immigrants.
