Until I hear something different from Trump directly, I’m going off what he said publicly in 2016. NY Post and Insider Paper quotes can be sketchy at best.
Agreed about media. Lets hope Trump will post something directly addressing this.
But other media outlets are already picking up on NY post interview with Trump, including GP - https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/12/trump-expresses-support-h-1b-visa-worker-program/

Agreed.
They are going to rewrite the rules. They are currently looking at the top 1% on a merit basis. They might go as high as the top 5%.
That was from 2016. Times have changed drastically.
Sadly.
I don't disagree with visa for skilled workers that they can't get elsewhere. That's the law.
They just follow it poorly and use it to get cheep labor. We should clarify our oposition and they should clarify their support.
This is a nothing burger except for Elon telling us to get fuked....
Except Elon and Vivek literally called for the replacement of American labor. They called us "unskilled" and retarded. Elon then doubled down, changed the algorithm, and banned/nuked accounts who called his bullshit. "Nothingburger." Yeah... keep thinking that way.
Seeing what a shitshow X was when he bought it,I can see his point. Americans used to have a terrific work ethic,and still do in many states. San Francisco not so much I bet. Good people from conservative states are not going to apply and move to commie shitholes. Moving to a liberal shithole in Texas is not much of an improvement.
We need to make Americans great again with schools and training....
"If you need a school then you are a loser" - Elon.
I would need more context,to weigh in on that.
People should know enough when they graduate high school to do most jobs. If they don't, that's the fault of the schools teaching woke crap instead of preparing students for work and life.
We built a house in my high school building trades class. Other kids learned how to weld,and got good jobs on the pipeline and such.
We went from "We need to make Americans great again with schools and training" to "If you need a school then you're a loser", to "We need to invest in schools to not be woke". Guess what Elon said about that? 🤣
Elon sperged out and got called out on his bullshit stance. Even if some of what he says is technically true, his overall stance on immigration is a direct slap in the face across all Americans. He called us retards and glorified the H1-Bs as "the top 0.1%" of the working class.
Look at all his tweets over the past 48 hours about this. It's ridiculous!
TBH, this is not an issue. I've thought about much. Of all the issues we have going on, this seems like a silly shideshow. I agree Elon was a dumbass. Their must be more to this than we see on the surface.
