Trump campaigned on promising to curb immigration into the U.S. And the notion that immigration of highly skilled foreigners is desirable runs counter to the holy grail of MAGA that any immigration is harmful to the country.
A particular paragraph in the Politico article is bedrock MAGA thinking: "Many of Trump's most ardent backers claim high-skilled immigrants depress wages and take jobs from native born Americans."
And there can be no doubt that this is true. Just look at the thousands of jobs in the construction and agriculture industries that "real" Americans no longer dominate. Working on American roofs in the beautiful summertime, has largely been taken over by immigrants. Harvesting crops in Florida and California is no longer the favored job of native Americans. Picking cotton, harvesting oranges and vegetables, desirable, high paying jobs, are no longer available to native Americans because of the vast influx of immigrants.
Well, I have no doubt that Trump will fix this terrible inequity, and in the future we will joyfully see native Americans happily perched on the roofs of houses and merrily singing as they harvest the crops so necessary to American welfare. Bigly!!!
