NEW: Undocumented workers get the job done at President Trump's golf club. My story about who makes his bed, waters the greens and more. Right here: https://t.co/ErJx0tI7nu

Making President Trump’s Bed: A Housekeeper Without Papers
At the president’s New Jersey golf course, an undocumented immigrant has worked as a maid since 2013. She said she never imagined she “would see such important people close up.”

Not to hurt them, to get him on the record. Don't know who might ask. Maybe we should ask Maggie H.

They might lose an advertiser! You must be one of those com'n'sts Demon Rats!

Sarcasm aside, I expect tv "news" to report this only after WaPo or NYT (ha!). Vox, motherjones, democracynow, etc., will be all over it long before tv interrupts their holiday touchy-feely tales to notice something not tweeted by twitler.

[Edit to add]
Looks like NYT may be the one tv quotes when they get around to it.

politicians dropping out of races because they had hired an undocumented worker. Just that, nothing else.

She deserves the Congressional Medal of Honor just for the pure fact that she had to clean Dump's toilets!

However I am worried about these women being outed by the NYT. They will lose their jobs and be deported (most likely), and for what? I really hope the Times has offered them excellent legal services and starts a go-fund-me campaign to make up for their lost wages and the hardships that are certain to face them.

I just wondered why they did this? Is it worth it? We all know he is a liar and a hypocrite, especially about his employees. I'm not sure anyone needed to be exposed to convince us.

Make him shut up his blubbery mouth with all his foul republican insults and falsehoods, and cheating lies.
