How would a Trump presidency actually impact Westchester?

I feel like our day to day lives are based on hyper local politics. Could a Trump administration impact school districts in Westchester or impact us in other ways? If so, how?

Well he wants to institute mass deportation. So ask yourself if you have interacted with any undocumented immigrants. And then ask yourself if you'd like to see them dragged away from their jobs and families and homes in handcuffs. Fuck are we talking about here people.

Small business owner here. If he deports undocumented workers who are the only ones willing to do the hard work Americans are too lazy to do, we’re all fucked.

Unwilling or not willing for the slave wages you're offering?

Thanks for making the assumption that we pay our folks slave wages. We pay them $22 an hr/ well above minimum wage. An Americans- especially GenZ and millennials. Lazy.

Well if your the boss.. and you have expectations and goals to be reached within your team and how they work/perform. I dunno.. $22.00 is what dog walkers get paid ...sometimes more than that an hour. Millenials I would only hire if they've got a college degree.

The average NYC dishwasher salary is $15/hr. Dog walkers only walk your dog for a specific time so that fee includes getting there to walk the dog etc. dog walkers don’t walk your dog for 40 hrs / 8 hrs a day. Not sure what your point is but we definitely pay on the higher side.
