“I think Trump explicitly stated he was in favor of recruiting and retaining American educated foreign PhDs with unique technical skills.”

On a podcast, which I heard, he included 2 year community college without mentioning any particular major. Trump is wrong in this area and advisors need to tell him it’s a crazy idea.

Yes, he did specify that a degree from a junior college is included.

I did not hear that - only the part about recruiting STEM PhDs which I am very much in favor of.

I am absolutely opposed to blanket H1B visas for generic two year community college grads, if for no reason other than the fact that any foreign student that can only get admitted to “community college” program is not likely to have the sort of skill set that should qualify for a H1B visa.

Many of these two year programs are actually not even legit community colleges and are BS diploma mills and Obama era scams. If this is the case, Trump needs to re evaluate his position on this program and I probably owe Massie a bit of an apology.
