“We talked a lot about Donald's [Trump] record on immigration. There is irony that he has made the center of his entire campaign immigration, given that he faced a $1 million court judgment for being part of a conspiracy to hire illegal aliens, given that news broke that he is hiring foreign workers at his fancy hotel in Florida.” MadeGivenMillionsRecordsTrumpJudgmentNewsCourtWorkersCampaignsImmigrationAliensBrokeIronyFancyHotelIllegalConspiracyFloridaHiringIllegal Aliens Author:Ted Cruz
“Donald Trump claims - he did interview after the debate where he said, well, gosh, you can't find Americans to do these jobs to be waiters or waitresses or bellhops.What ridiculous nonsense.

Instead, he brought in foreign workers, because they're captive workers, because you can pay them less because they can't leave.” WellsSaidJobsPayNew YorkTrumpClaimsWorkersDebateRidiculousInterviewsNonsenseNew York TimesCaptivesWaiterWaitress Author:Ted Cruz
“Donald Trump is a world-class con artist. He conned all these people that signed up for Trump University. Now he's trying to do the same thing to Republican voters. He's trying to convince them that somehow he's the guy that is going to stand up to illegal immigration, but he hires illegal immigrants, that he's fighting for American workers, but he's hiring foreign workers for his hotels, that he's going to bring back jobs from China and from Mexico, but, in fact, he's creating jobs in China and Mexico, because that's where all of his suits and ties that he sells are made.” PeopleWorldTryingMadeFactsJobsArtistGuyFightingClassTrumpRepublicanCreatingSellsWorkersUniversityChinaImmigrationSuitsTiesConvinceHotelImmigrantsIllegalVotersMexicoHiringIllegal ImmigrantsIllegal ImmigrationWorld ClassAmerican WorkersCreating JobsCon ArtistSuits And Ties Author:Marco Rubio

“When you have a candidate like Donald Trump saying that Mexicans are rapists and drug dealers, and also doubling down and suggesting that we should deport 11 million undocumented workers, who are mostly people that came to this country to better themselves, and to patrol neighborhoods of predominantly Muslims families.

“What will be interesting to see is whether or not we see from the [Donald Trump] administration initiatives on higher education for this work force, because if those kinds of training opportunities are not provided, then I do think this program begins to look like a defensive holding action, a rear-guard action, buying time for workers who might not otherwise find positions in the 21st century.” IfsThinkingLooksKindMightActionOpportunityForceInterestingCenturyPositionTrumpHigherTrainingProgramWorkersAdministrationBuyingInitiative21st CenturyHigher Education Author:Judy Woodruff
