wo of his wives, ex Ivana and current spouse Melania, were runway regulars, and his daughters Ivanka and Tiffany have dipped their toes into the fashion world, too.
But the presidential hopeful also likes models in the workplace. In fact, he is the owner of the little-known agency Trump Model Management.
In a video published on the website Heat Street on Monday, several Trump beauties talk about their feelings on their hugely controversial boss, the GOP front-runner.
“His politics are different than mine, but it doesn’t really affect me in my job,” says a model. She later adds, “I’m sorry, Trump. I want Hillary Clinton to win the presidential election!”
The video — filmed during New York Fashion Week — also addresses a sticky situation: Many of these models are not full-fledged American citizens.
“I’m on a 1 visa: Extraordinary Abilities,” says a model. Several others say the same.
According to Reuters, Trump Model Management has sought so-called “exceptional talent visas” for 250 models. The qualifications for that visa, according to US Citizen and Immigration Services, include “exceptional ability in the sciences, arts, or business” and that the candidate “will substantially benefit the national economy, cultural interests, educational interests, or US welfare.”
This, the Heat Street video argues, is in stark contrast to the “Make America Great Again” candidate’s pledge that he will be “the greatest jobs-producing president that God has ever created.”
The fashion elite, however, have no problem with international models.
“It’s about a clash of identities,” says one designer backstage. “There’s this cross-pollination. Some girls come from a remote town in Africa and others are from the tip of New Zealand.”
Model J. Alexander agrees. “If we want to reach global success, we need global beauty,” he says.
