Donald Trump is the ONLY candidate who seems to be on the side of individual working Americans.

The only one. Anywhere.

Trump is completely right about this.

This is an example why he is winning many crossover voters.

That’s fine, but what ‘action’ could be take?

The last seven years aside, the president does not make law.

And if Trump is going to be another ‘I make the laws I want’ president, then I do not want him.

If elected, Trump said he would take action against companies that replace American workers.

I'll have to see it to believe it. South Carolina passed a law many years ago aimed at punishing employers of illegals. I've only heard of it being used once and there ain't no shortage of illegals working here in SC.

Ted Cruz wants 500% more employees replaced by H1-B visas.

Go Ted!

I like Trump. He’s my 2nd choice behind Cruz.

I don’t agree with Cruz’ position on H1B, and a few other issues. No candidate is going to agree with everything I believe in, and if they did, I’d suspect them of pandering to me.

Now. Trump isn’t advocating eliminating H1Bs here. That would be one thing. Instead, he’s advocating using the full force and power of the federal government to make a company hire back workers they determined weren’t doing their jobs adequately.

Disney’s My Magic Plus IT development is hundreds of millions over budget, years behind schedule, doesn’t function at all in key areas (coordination of marketplaces - this is the part where Disney plans to use traffic and purchasing patterns to suggest future purchases), and is glitchy in other areas (requiring significant service recovery and creating brand damage for hundreds of customers each day.)

HB1s aside, Disney has every right to replace its workers for cause.

If Trump wants to rail against HB1s, that’s fine. That’s not what he did here.

Here, he says that he will use the power of government to force a company to adopt his view of their current employer habits; he will prevent them from being allowed to terminate employees.

Any candidate that wants to use the power of government in such a way should make the people on this website cringe rather than cheer.

Look at my posting history, I do not typically speak ill of Trump and I’ve complemented his campaign many times.

I don’t agree with Trump here. That’s fine, I don’t always agree with Cruz either.

I’m just surprised to see the support for the heavy hand of government to enforce its wishes on the private sector - here.

The US certainly has the authority and right to disapprove H1-B visas, especially if the company cannot prove it did everything in its power to hire an American Citizen. They should also be able to prove they are paying the prevailing wages for that help instead of trying to replace whole workforce with cheaper foreign labor.

Bravo, Donald Trump, for continuing to publicize these issues. Of course, he will be on the Chamber of Corruption hit list.

100% correcto. While Im not completely agaisnt this visa program...its been used in the medical profession for yrs.
But now the system is out of control now. Its worth noting the visa holders are not required to carry obamacare....

Good morning.

Trump is completely right about this.

If we do indeed still have a Constitution, then it's not the Donald's call.

vowed to take action against firms that replace American workers


This sounds good until you think about it. Exactly what would he do, would he authorized to do this and under what law. I wish he would cite the authority.

Amen!

So many people fail to understand these are rigid trade agreements (NAFTA, GATT, TPP, Etc...) against the American people and for the ESTABLISHMENT... Who are Globalist that are trying to wreck our Free Republic in order to bring in Global U.N. government.

It’s astounding that some people can see the abuses of the system but fail to connect the dots!

No wonder why they criminals are running wild!

Even the incompetent ones?

People need to understand the outsourcing history at Disney. Their IT organization was largely incompetent, which resulted in it getting outsourced. No CTO worth their salt us going to replace a department that is performing well.

Disney is shameful, not to mention tone deaf and idiotic here - as well as immoral.

However, I do not want a President taking unilateral action against companies who operate in a manner he doesn’t like - even if I don’t like how they operate either. Hell, there’s virtually nothing Disney does I do like. I certainly don’t like how they run ESPN either.

But the Prez at war with a company? Um, where the hell does that stop? If he wants to outlaw the practice, that’s valid.

What you gonna do when he takes unilateral action you don’t like?

Remember the good ole days, when we were against a President - or any elected official for that matter - declaring war on a particular American company or industry? You know, property rights, limited government, the Constitution, what the hell ever that is.....

Wasn’t this the heart of the Chick Fil-A thing? You know, mayors punishing a company they didn’t like? Heck, even a lot of non religious libertarian types joined us on this. I remember when FR was on the right side of this debate.
