Trump says the U.S. needs H-1B immigrants to make computer chips and "train our people."

It would be really funny if we were bringing in Taiwanese chip makers on H1Bs to train Indians on H1Bs, which some people in the comments claim is happening already

How can you be so racist towards other geographic Asians?

Trump is getting terrible advice.

He really needs to rethink this. How can you be America first with that attitude?

This is why populism always sucks.

Its an election strategy, not a governing ideology.

I know. It was a poor attempt to say an Asian as yourself shouldn't hate on geographic Asians like Indians.

Someone told him we were simply bringing in talent to train Americans which is a lie. He has probably never actually looked deeper to see the truth and abuse of the H1B program.

Yeah this is the same nonsense Bessent debased himself with last week.

Making arguments for using H1B visas for South Koreans, Japanese, Chinese, and Taiwanese people to conflate the actual discussions about actual H1B issues with Indians.

You have to be a legit idiot to not notice this silliness.

Its the opposite

Ive had to train my H1B replacement 3 fricking times in my career

Ive never been trained by an Indian because none of them have the skills or abilities to train and knowledge transfer outside of how to swindle & scam

Yeah, Asians are definitely known for how tolerant they are of other types of Asians.

The argument might hold water if it weren't for the fact that 71% of all H1Bs are Indians.

How are Indians going to train Americans in things that India doesn't do?

Explain to me how India has such a robust and advanced microchip manufacturing sector that we can draw from to train Americans, for example.
