Vance said he was seated next to a CEO of a major hotel chain at dinner whom he described as a "caricature of a business executive, complaining about how he was forced to pay his workers higher wages."The CEO was complaining about the labor market and how Trump's actions at the border had impacted his relationship with his employees. Vance told the Times the CEO then turned to him and said, "Well, you understand this as well as anybody. These people just need to get off their asses, come to work and do their job. And now, because we can't hire immigrants, or as many immigrants, we've got to hire these people at higher wages."When recounting the moment to the Times, Vance said, "The fact that this guy saw me as sympathetic to his problem, and not the problem of the workers, made me realize that I'm on a train that has its own momentum, and I have to get off this train, or I'm going to wake up in 10 years and really hate everything that I've become.""And so I decided to get off that train, and I felt like the only way that I could do that was, in some ways, alienating and offending people who liked my book," he continued.JD Vance said a dinner with elite CEOs made him realize he might end up hating what he'd become (msn.com)

I genuinely believe America has already died. It's a runaway train with the elites and the JWO as it's momentum. I know that sounds gloomy, but it's what I see.
Highlights:
- An elitists of a huge hotel chain was pissed that Trump forced him to pay higher wages because Trump wanted to stop the immigrants coming in.
- Vance didn't want to be a part of that system, so he evolved toward Trump's point of view.

The men were putting in 12-hour shifts with inadequate safety equipment at subpar wages that their contractor paid sporadically, if at all. A lawyer for many of the Poles demanded that the workers be paid or else he would serve Trump with a lien on the property. One Polish worker even went to Trump’s office to ask him for money in person, according to sworn testimony and a deposition filed under oath in a court case.

Their recollections also show how Trump’s entrance into presidential politics — denouncing illegal immigrants as criminals and job-stealers — upended their lives and prompted some of them to publicly confront their former boss.
