Trump bemoans lack of immigrants from majority-white countries to the US
Ex-president avoided past ‘shithole countries’ racist invective, but said the US hadn’t gotten enough immigrants from ‘nice countries’
Donald Trump bemoaned a lack of immigrants to the US from “nice” countries “like Denmark [or] Switzerland”, offering millionaire donors at a Florida fundraiser a reprise of infamous racist Oval Office remarks about people coming to America from “shithole countries”.
Trump is the presumptive Republican nominee for president again, despite facing 88 criminal charges and multimillion-dollar civil penalties for tax fraud and defamation, the latter arising from a rape allegation a judge called “substantially true”.
According to the New York Times, which cited an unnamed attendee at the Saturday event in Palm Beach, Trump told his audience: “These are people coming in from prisons and jails. They’re coming in from just unbelievable places and countries, countries that are a disaster.
“And when I said, you know, ‘Why can’t we allow people to come in from nice countries,’ I’m trying to be nice. Nice countries, you know like Denmark, Switzerland? Do we have any people coming in from Denmark? How about Switzerland? How about Norway?”
You could double my income, even triple.
....and I still wouldn't risk rising my children in the US.
Not a fucking chance...
Literally, had to make this decision four years ago.
In the end I went to the German branch of the same tech company and only made 1/4 the money I would have in the US.
However, because it was a US company they made me do the "what to do when there's a shooter in the workplace" training course anyway. No regrets about not going.
I think the same... And I live in Canada, we don't have it as good as Denmark or Switzerland but still....
I honestly only go to the States for short visits I dread, because we have family there.... Otherwise I wouldn't even visit
