Trujillo described how his lack of legal status made him feel uncertain about what he could accomplish, but how he “had to make the best of my life.” He said he graduated from high school, got married and had two children, now 12 and 5.

He opened a restaurant that he said is struggling due to the high cost of labor and goods, and said he was hopeful Trump would usher in better economic times.

“I’m happy with the opportunity that Trump has again to run and hopefully get us back on track,” Trujillo said. “I think there’s room to make America greater.”

But it's okay, he's a citizen now. It happened... let me check... before Trump was president.

"I've got mine, fuck you" once again.

so basically just a complete lack of understanding of inflation and what causes it.

A complete lack of understanding of a lot of things from the sound of it. He's a former undocumented immigrant who got citizenship under Obama and absolutely would not have gotten citizenship under Trump complaining about immigration and complaining about a lack of staff for his restaurant.
