X is super pissed. It’s not a Trump friendly place right now.

Why should it be?

That’s not fake news. That’s a straight up F You to his entire base.

He really messed up badly and doesn’t seem to have any idea how that type of message is going to be received when the economy is still garbage, the white collar job market is garbage and the GOP Congress has done exactly zero again with full control of the government.

I don’t understand people who say this. India’s educational system is horrendous compared to the US. These companies aren’t hiring foreign workers because they’re more talented. They’re hiring them because they’re cheaper. That’s it.


What makes you think Indian education is horrendous? It’s incredibly competitive to get spots because they have such a giant population. The graduates are also more battle tested from more rigorous work.

That comment would make sense if the Indian kids from families that come to the US aren’t also the HS valedictorians here.

Trump is and always been, a phony and an opportunist. He will make public statements that are obviously untrue but are accepted by his followers. When it ultimately is demonstrated
that he is full of shite, those same followers will shrug it off. All they care about is owning the libs, reality be damned…

The H1B workers from Infosys and Tata are not your Indian valedictorians.

You are a giant moron.

Whats bizarre is how quickly you succumb to this stupid lie thats such an obvious anti-American perspective.

Say it louder for those in the back

Actual talented Indians don't need H1B shell companies and body shops to get jobs.

99% of the issue is H1Bs that use these body shops. The body shops get them jobs through fake resumes, fake credentials, and proxy interviews. Some of the body shops put them through boot camp style crash courses to learn something like Java just well enough to fool an interviewer if they cant succeed in a proxy interview or nepotistic hiring manager.

The body shops are the problem.

No. Trump has always been a deal maker. He wants the best deals. The assumption however was that he approached these deals (policy positions) with the American people as a priority. Instead he is making great deals for Big Tech and the DC lobbyists. They are winning, as they usually do. I’m sure Trump’s poll numbers are great in Washington DC. On Main Street America? Not so much.

The American people are under the assumption that the US education system is great. It isn’t. We rank 16th in science and 34th in math. There aren’t enough doctors to meet demand and many current specialists aren’t young. They are not being replaced. Most of y’all have a problem with reality, not Trump. I can’t tell you how many new nurses lack any basic skills like starting an IV or drawing blood without having to restick several times. Many will quit when they realize they have to work weekends or 12 hour shifts. We are not prepared for the future

does America First mean hire the American even if they are unqualified? Hire the American even if they have a shitty work ethic?

If so, we need to redefine the term.

You seem to think namecalling is a productive argument.

CEOs. Look at how many CEOs come from “inferior” education.

DEI hires like Betsy DeVos have essentially eliminated the Dept of Education. They clearly don't want to fund education.

Ironic that VOR is now a mouthpiece for the America First hoards when he voted for Kamala. Y’all lurch from one “outrage” to the next

Unfortunately, Trump is correct, and the horrible public education system is to blame. It has failed our youth, and they have fallen behind most Asian countries when it comes to math, tech, and engineering.

No, he's not. Youre just a brainwashed idiot repeating the classic corporate talking points to bring in cheap labor and fire American workers.

The US’ is behind virtually every country in Eastern Asia and Western Europe in math achievement scores. What further proof do you need? You have a problem with reality. Why do you think a lot NP’s are seeing more patients now? We are falling behind in the medical field as well

It’s really hard to build a work ethic when you have no work.

There are reasons we are falling behind

The problem is the same people who create the problem to begin with, always come back with even more horrible solutions to fixing it

The entire public education system is a joke, and we all know it. The college scam is a joke. Why is Latisha going to college and twerking on stage with her “general studies” degree. College used to be an endeavor for the best and brightest. But we have to have a big bloated tent so Latisha can twerk and get that selfie in her graduation cap.

Falling back to the same tired excuses lol I have been working since I was 14. The problem is the younger generations either flat out don’t want to work or believe they deserve 20$ an hour for fast food. No one is stopping them from getting a job other than themselves. No one is stopping them from getting a degree in engineering or learning a trade skill other than themselves. Everyone wants equal outcomes not equal opportunities

They need to let JD run all communications from now on. Trump is fricking terrible at this.

If you truly believe that a work ethic is taught after an employee enters the workforce, you are terribly mistaken. And a glowing example of why the foreign candidate gets hired. While I appreciate your attempt to be humorous, it avoids the point the President is making.
