Trump hired law firm trying to stop deportations

While Donald Trump publicly calls for mass deportations of all undocumented immigrants, his presidential campaign has hired a law firm that is fighting against the deportation of thousands of undocumented refugees from Central America.

After launching his campaign last year, Trump hired as his chief campaign counsel Donald F. McGahn, a former Republican chairman of the Federal Election Commission and now a partner in the Washington office of Jones Day, one of the country’s largest law firms, with more than 2,000 lawyers around the world. According to the most recent filings, Trump has paid Jones Day $598,109 for its work so far, which included defeating a legal challenge that sought to keep him off the ballot in the New Hampshire primary.

At the same time it has been billing the Trump campaign, Jones Day has been actively recruiting its partners and associates to provide free legal services to one category of the population that Trump wants to deport: the more than 100,000 people, mostly from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, who have entered the country unlawfully in the past few years and then sought asylum on the grounds that they were fleeing gang violence and other persecution in their home countries.

“Over 150 lawyers from almost every U.S. office, and some international offices, are involved in this extraordinary team effort,” Jones Day proclaims on the pro bono sectionof its website, alongside a series of videos highlighting the firm’s work. “Currently our lawyers are representing individual mothers with children and unaccompanied children in cases in immigration courts and state courts throughout the country.”

I pray to the love of GOD that this is all an act and he just pulled a Trojan Horse on the Republicans big time. That's what people have been speculating since the beginning.

That's what I thought too. I have always said that deep down inside i hoped that trump was just trying to be on the ballot and actually be for the people.

Maybe this whole republican gambit, was a way to get the presidential bid. He knew the Democrats wouldn't accept him, so he toppled the next best thing to getting on the ballot.

Not everyone falling for it so easily :giveup: 

It's certainly possible that Trump is "not as" terrible as he appeared to appeal to the Republicans (what does that say about their party though if their popular support comes from racist, sexist, xenophobic rhetoric :smh: ) 

but one just has to know who he was and how he behaved and conducted business before his presidential bid, even back in '08 to see that he's always been at least remotely ignorant, belligerent and petty and immature :crossed:

I don't think Trump's team hired them SPECIFICALLY because of this issue... more like this firm is involved in several types of issues and they just happened to be working with the issue of stopping the deportations of Central Americans who entered without proper documentation 2 summers ago. 

 

But I'll look into it.
