Incidentally, I would hold the total number of immigrants granted permanent status to under 100,000 a year; and I would restore the National Origins formula to apportion that limited number. But the point you make here, is not an indictment of Trump--not at all, even if he would allow a few thousand more folk in than I would. He is the one who has done more to stiffen America's backbone on this issue, than any other living person.
Trump said in last week's debate: "I'm changing it, and I'm softening the position".
He stated the next morning that he wasn't talking about H-1B: "Megyn Kelly asked about highly-skilled immigration. The H-1B program is neither high-skilled nor immigration".
So what WAS he talking about? What's his new position and how was his old position different? Will he ever tell us?
