White House: Trump Favors U.S. Workers over Investment Class on Immigration
breitbart.com ^ | July 31, 2017 | Tony Lee

President Donald Trump’s senior adviser Stephen Miller said Trump’s new skills-based RAISE Act immigration proposal that benefits American workers is yet another example of how Trump favors the working class over the investment class.

In a heated briefing with legacy media reporters who are clueless about immigration beyond the hackneyed—and often misleading—talking points they are fed from amnesty advocates associated with the “Gang of Eight” Senators and technology titans like Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg, Miller said that the RAISE Act is the “pro-American immigration reform that the American people want and deserve.”

Miller said because of America’s current immigration policies, there has been a “shift in wealth from the working class to wealthier corporations and businesses.” He said the government’s duty is to protect U.S. citizens and U.S. workers who are struggling to find jobs. He implored legislators to have “compassion” for American workers. He said it is not fair for a new business to open up in a place like Detroit and force unemployed American workers to compete with foreigners.

“This is what President Trump campaigned on,” Miller said. “This is a major promise to the American people.”

He noted that bringing in an endless flow of low-skilled workers and increasing the number of H-1B visas so technology corporations can replace American workers with foreigners who are not as qualified would only displace and harm U.S.-born workers and legal immigrants.

Miller said such policies hurt U.S.-born workers, immigrant workers, African-American workers, Hispanic workers, and blue-collar workers in general. Noting that nearly half of all immigrant-headed households receive government benefits, Miller said the RAISE Act would also help U.S. taxpayers.

This is THE thing that motivates the Uniparty to oppose Trump.
They have been actively preventing the citizens from stopping their plan to flood the country with foreigners.
The GOP has only nominated amnesty candidates since the last amnesty.
If Trump had not broken the blockade, we would never have had a President who sided with the citizens and the rule of law.

This is why Trump will not be impeached, much less convicted.

And this is why he will be reelected in 2020.

Because neither the Republicans or the Democrats have an answer to why they have been phucking us for 60 years.

After 8 years of Obama’s 20 trillion in debt, 97,000 pages of government regulations added per year, massive 3rd world immigration,massive Islamic immigration(REFUGEES), factories to China,I now have HOPE with President Trump.

Just Trump Reducing government regulations and not continuing Obama’s policy of adding 97,000 pages of government regulations per year, just that alone SAVED AMERICA.

Yes . They've been flooding the USA with socialist,poor, 3rd world foreigners since the Kennedy's 1965 immigration act who are also voters for democrats/socialism.

And as knife in the the heart of America the democrat party has been importing million of Muslim refugees, Bosnian Muslims, Somalis Muslim pukes, Syrian Muslim jerks, you name it. Islam is an evil cult so why let them in ? To destroy America that's why

Trump's immigration act would save America for the long term as Trump's reducing Obama's government regulations already has for the near future.

Don’t just blame Democrats. Republican Party is doing it to us as well. Freerepublic was a hotbed of Bush support for years, even while he was helping flood the country with unskilled immigrants - and encouraging them to buy houses with no credit.

Yeah but it was democrat Bill Clinton specifically who imported millions of Bosnian Muslims “refugees”, Somalian Muslim “refugees”, and Obama who massively imported Muslim Somalian refuges who swung the election to that communist Franken which gave us Obamacare etc. And democrat obama who purposefully imported More Muslim Syrian “refugees” rapefugees into every state in the USA etc.

And it was democrat Ted Kennedy who purposefully changed demographics in the USA with his 1965 immigration act and why we have problems in the USA , 70 million socialist 3rd world immigrants.

I’m not denying Democrats are part of the problem. But if you think most Republicans in Congress are on your side, you are dreaming. They’re your enemies, in the pockets of globalist donors who despise you and all average Americans. Which is why they hate Trump. Any freepers who spends time on the old “Republicans good, Democrats bad” theme, is a fool, getting played by the GOP establishment

I never said anything like you are suggesting (I never said Republican politicians weren't corrupt or that they were on Americans side nor did I defend any). Plus check ALL my posts on this thread where I mention W Bush's amnesty plans. My main point was on the democrats 1965 immigration act.

Also my point is that democrats are actively trying to destroy America and turn it into a socialist hell like Venezuela.And anyone that doesn't see this doesn't know the democrats .
