That’s dumb.

I’m suggesting that businesses need to put America first, rather than trying to squeeze another 0.2% profit out of their bottom line by firing American workers and hiring H1-B replacements. Frankly, I make no apologies for that. Nation before “muh capitalism.” I care about the American people, not abstract entities.

Spoken like someone who has never owned a business. America isn't monolithic. It's 350,000,000,000 competing interests. And sometimes those interests are diametrically opposed. When you say "America first", what you really mean is that you want your interests elevated above the interests of others who don't agree with you. Why? Because you feel entitled to the fruits of another person's labor or investment.

Every worker who ever took a salary took it from someone who made a profit. No profit, no jobs.
