Immigrant Chess

In his latest act of domestic terrorism, Donald Trump is again doing what he does best, which is creating divides instead of crossing them. I speak of his threat to transfer detained immigrants to sanctuary cities where, in his eyes, Democrats can deal with them.

Touche!

While we're calling out our political parties to walk the walk and talk the talk, I'm going to ask Republican businessmen to remove every single illegal immigrant currently in their employ, starting with those hired by the Trump-whore at Mar-a-Largo, his golf clubs, his hotels and on his constructions sites.

How 'bout it, Donnie?

The gasbag-in-chief regularly spouts off about the importance of American workers and creating American jobs even as he endorses a poisonous re-write of the North American Free Trade Agreement and gives our corporations and the one-percent massive tax breaks.

C'mon Donnie. Discharge those illegals and hire union tradesmen at your building sites. Hire naturalized American citizens in your hotels and your golf clubs. Ditto your palace in Florida.

Two years into your presidency, it's high time for you to set an example. You're a Republican! You hate immigrants! (At least when you're not marrying them.)

Why do you hire them, anyway? Do you really want (in your words) rapists, drug-users and unwashed vermin fluffing your pillows and cooking your food and doing god-knows-what in your garden?

Of course not!

Show us those lofty Republican values. We're begging you. Please—be our role model. Support the American family and hire an American. You know, family values and all that.

What's that? They're too expensive? And your skanky Republican businessmen friends feel the same?

Awww. Anybody got a violin?

Listen up, people. Get a clue. No illegal immigrant ever took an American's job.

That job was given to him by a Republican businessman who saw a chance to fatten his bottom line.

You get that, right?

So while we're calling on political parties to live their beliefs, I want to see every Republican businessman exploiting immigrant labor to turn around and replace that employee with an American.

And if you're reading this and happen to be an illegal concerned about losing your job, no worries. It'll never happen. Given the choice between profits and people, a Republican will invariably choose profits.

However contemptible you may be in the Republican playbook, you're never too contemptible to make a buck off of.

And if you're one of those opioid-chewing, high school drop-outs who voted with your anger and installed the Trump-whore in the White House, this is your boy at work. 

Is America great for you yet?
