Texas builder, Fool Hispanic who voted for Trump, now complains about no workers [View all]

Spot on??

Well n Texas and a lot of the USA,
it’s immigrants, construction workers, that build our houses.

And in Texas about 60% are Mexicans.

This builder, a Texan Hispanic VOTED for TRUMP!!

Now he is calling out the lack of workers to build his houses!


Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

Non-hispanic tradespeople would be happy to build houses for this guy — if he paid them a decent wage. He likes using undocumented immigrant labor because he can skip the niceties like adequate pay and health insurance. This is why we need a decent immigration system.
