Speaking up matters! Over the past several weeks Trump made apparent flip-flops on immigration and his past Buy American, Hire American. He told a group of business CEOs that he'd sustain and increase H1B, then he suggested automatic green cards for foreign students. Well, one down, still need to see the other two changes reversed. Support Trump, YES, but speak up as well.

No more Green Cards, no more H1-Bs!!

Don't these politicians - Trump included - understand that it is VOTES, not CORPORATE DONATIONS, that they really need?!?

The cynical view is that Trump is wobbly, not an ideologue, and goes with whoever he speaks to last. In the recent case, he met with those business CEOs who gave him 10s of millions of dollars and made lots of promises without reflecting on his bigger commitment to the America people. That’s not only on Trump but a failure of the team around him to speak up for consistency and remember who votes for him.

These students only have the visa to be educated, then to go home.

GO HOME! Why Trump wants these interlopers to hang around and take US CITIZEN JOBS, is beyond me.

How many more foreigners do we need, when we have illegals, H1-Bs, education visa, and chain migrants from these same people, already?

This country was made for only its citizens! That is true of every country!

Trump wants to make this country for foreigners.

“No more Green Cards, no more H1-Bs!!”

With you, 100%! First it was landscaping and fast food jobs that were “the jobs Americans don’t want to do”. Now it’s the degrees and white collar jobs Americans don’t want to do. It’s absolute b.s.

NO MORE IMMIGRATION, NO MORE ASYLUM. Enough already. As it is, English is the language I hear the LEAST outside of my own home.

Would only lead to an explosion of diploma mills providing little education but soaking up billions in federally subsidized loan$$, to be forgiven by the next Democrat administration.

Ain't THAT the truth! My Walmart has maybe 5 "associates" who speak English, the rest are foreigners and out of the foreigners, I'm not sure how many can speak English. They're always jibber jabbering in some foreign language so I'm not sure if they're discussing work related subjects or if they're making fun of us Americans.

My grocery store still has 99.9% English speaking workers.

Campaign walks back the statement. Same thing happened to Biden. Glass houses and all. I agree with the advice to Trump to lay off Biden’s mental frailty.

That’s what worried me in 2016. Trump has always been a democrat. During his term, he “danced with who brung him”. So I voted for him in 2020. (Won Ohio by 8pts)
Now with no reelection to worry about will he do the same?

Before you know it, there won't be ANY jobs that Americans will want to do, so they say.

Americans will be living in tents on the streets while the illegals will be living in public housing.

I recall trump and his Poor Dacas comments and he intentionally
avoided deporting these demonrat operatives even after the court allowed him to . They are still here because of his actions and they are all huge Dem activists too .
Dont forget his Syrian muslim refugee invasion program that he trashed Obama about in 2016 and then extended the program his entire term .
Sadly , All his Resorts only employ H1 2 3 Visas and no real Americans .
I
Trump slip alot and shows his Dem roots way too much and his campaign is left cleaning up .
We have no one on our side in either party regarding this matter.

People speaking up helps. We see that over and over. Getting the right people into his next administration will be critical: Miller, Abbott, Paxton, to name several.

I’m sure this was 100D Chess. Once the migrants get the Green Cards, they’ll lock up all the Deep State players and Trump will be reinstated.

If any other Republican did this, they would be pejoratively (and correctly) be called a RINO. However, the idolatry of the True Believers prevents them from doing this here.

Of course. Like Biden, Trump has no principles. But fortunately he’s still sane enough to accept some management and damage control.

We are failing as a nation in so many areas. I don’t like it that we are importing engineers, scientists, doctors, nurses and other highly skilled professionals because we can’t produce enough of them in our own country! Go to the closest big college or university that offers engineering courses. You’ll be hard pressed to find an engineering department at any major American university that is not overrun with foreign students, mostly from the Middle East and Asia.

Giving DACA or any illegal amnesty, giving green cards to foreign graduates taking American jobs, and continuing H1B and increasing it to take American jobs do not gain Trump or Republicans any new votes or voters. On this alone, considering the numbers beef up census counts in favor of Democrats, Trump and Republicans need to universally call for their deportation. All of them!
