NJ prosecutors: Trump's golf club gave fake green cards and social security numbers to undocumented

immigrants

Guatemalan national Victorina Morales and Costa Rican national Sandra Diaz are among at least five former and current undocumented housekeepers at Trump’s club who say they were given fake documents and subjected to “abuse and racial harassment.”

Both the women say club management knew they were undocumented but provided them with the forgeries anyway.

From the Daily News:

Anibal Romero, a Newark attorney who represents several undocumented immigrants who used to work at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, said Friday he recently met with investigators from the state attorney general’s office and handed over fraudulent green cards and Social Security numbers that management at the club allegedly procured and gave his clients, Victorina Morales and Sandra Diaz.

Before he met with the state prosecutors, Romero said he reached out to Mueller’s office because, while he wanted to contact federal authorities, he was concerned about looping in the Justice Department, which was headed by Jeff Sessions at the time.

“I wasn’t sure, one, if they’d take me seriously and, two, if this could backfire on my clients,” Romero told The News, referencing the Trump administration’s aggressive immigration agenda.



Romero said Morales understands her coming forward could result in legal repercussions but says she is motivated to speak out because of the blatant hypocrisy in Trump employing undocumented immigrants at his golf club while at the same time demonizing them from his Oval Office pulpit.

One rule for him, right? And the cult members will explain it away somehow.

That trump demonizes immigrants and foreigners yet hires them before Americans in his businesses. His claims they are all criminals , and a threat is the opposite of how he hires people who'll work cheaper because they are foreign students , or illegal immigrants. He and his daughter also still have most of their products made in China and other overseas places that are cheaper. This wall thing is nothing but a pr event for distraction, and another act from trump . If he's so against them coming into this country why haven't they passed legislation for more severe penalties for businesses hiring them, and with much higher costing monetary penalties when caught ? They won't do that , but would rather sensationalize them as criminals instead all for publicity . trump says one thing , then actually does the opposite hiring known illegal immigrants like he's done at his NJ golf club, and probably all his american businesses. Why does he promote them being hired in the USA when he promotes America first. Why, because America first is just another lie, an act from trump for promotion to his followers. Nothing he's done has been for America first, and his policy changes have hurt this country, and businesses are leaving now because of him .
