I'm afraid to hear what Trump is going to promise them.

More H-1B slots for Asian-Indians?

More Green Cards?

77% of Asian-Indian Americans voted for Hillary.

80% voted to reelect Obama.

Most of them live in New York, California, and King County (Seattle) WA, three states Trump has no chance of winning.

There’s a reason they’re holding it in Texas. We have many Indians here. There are also many in Northern Virginia, which would offset all the liberals who work in the capitol. Do you really think he’s going to promise them visas or are you just being sarcastic?

During the 2016 campaign, I often said: “I don’t mind globalization as long as it is us doing the globalizing”.

Trump is grabbing the snake by the head and doing precisely that.

Re: Do you really think he’s going to promise them visas or are you just being sarcastic?

In 2015, he promised to reduce H-1B visas, which he can do with an Executive Order.

So far, no reduction at all.

In fact, Trump expanded the OPT student work visa, which is just a thinly disguised surrogate for the H-1B.

Also, today, Congress was supposed to vote on a new Green Card system.

From memory, India has a Green Card quota of about 10,000 per year.

Under the new legislation, that could go to 100,000 per year.

If Trump is opposed to that legislation, I have not read about it.

As far as I know, Asian-Indians make up less than 2% of the eligible voters in every state.

Maybe they are above 2% in New Jersey and New York, but we will probably have to wait for the 2020 Census to find out.

Trump lost Virginia by 5.3%, so he’s going to need a lot more help than flipping 10,000-20,000 Asian-Indians.

With all the flooding there I’m surprised they didn’t postpone this.

India, yesterday, reduced its corporate tax to the lowest in the G15. For manufacturing companies, the Corp tax rate is 15%.

Trump and Modi are going to rejig the world supply chain. It’s happening before our eyes.

The biggest pitch is to more align India with the US against China, which threatens both countries.

You should vote for Joe Biden. I’m sure he’ll do everything on your wish list.

Re: “You should vote for Joe Biden. I’m sure he’ll do everything on your wish list.”

I am an immigration hawk.

If Conservatives do not hold Trump's feet to the political fire on immigration issues, who will?

Remember my comments about a massive increase in Asian-Indian Green Cards?

Where is Trump?

This legislation has been floating around Congress since June.

Anyone here know where Trump stands on this bill?

If he opposed it, he would have threatened to veto it.

Instead, he's campaigning in front of 50,000 Asian-Indian H-1Bs.

Hahahaha! You know all 50,000 of those people and that they all received H-1B visas? That’s amazing. Tell me, what penny stocks should I buy to make me a millionaire?
