Yup.I’d seal the borders for 10 years and re-implement President Eisenhauer’s “Operation Werback” deportation program.

This country needs to get back to basics. Example: Bad guys go to jail or are executed.

Time to have an immigration moratorium - and mass deportation of all who entered under Biden.

Send Ramaswampy away too.

People who want more migration do not have to drive in rush hour traffic.

America has been always conquered via migration. The indians learned that, and Mexico learned it when they invited anglos there, only to lose parts of the land now called Texas.

Why the Indian Education system sucks THE MOST out of the lot.





"Learning atmosphere is a myth in MOST schools of India and that includes the “oh so great Private CBSE Schools found all over”. The students are made to sit in Assembly-Line like conditions in four or five seater benches (that is a luxury when compared to the govt. run schools) in infra-structurally deficient schools and are made to cram everything meaningless to ‘get settled’ which is basically get hold of a medical or engineering degree from some sh*tty govt. college."

If you take the national debt and divide it by the number of working Americans, it comes to something like $182,000 per person. That’s like having to pay off a mortgage — without even having a home to show for it.

The dirty little secret is that the U.S. is looking for tens of millions of immigrants to sign up for this idiotic deal.

Trump’s always been in favor of opening the floodgates to skilled, white-collar workers from overseas. Of course, he never abolished or even spoke about abolishing affirmative action which gives these H1-B immigrants a leg up on white American citizens for job openings.

I have firsthand experience of this in my brother’s attempts to get a job. Affirmative action hires from China and India are hired even though they’re less qualified and have atrocious communication skills in English. They are constantly getting the university jobs he’s applying for. It’s all part of DEI and Affirmative Action. Trump loves these foreign hires. He’s fully in favor of importing them. He’s said so on many occasions.

Maybe you want to rethink your sweeping fallacious pronouncement.

The Trump administration embraced the Reforming American Immigration for a Strong Economy (RAISE) Act in August 2017. The RAISE Act seeks to reduce levels of legal immigration to the United States by 50% by halving the number of green cards issued.

The most prevalent group of people in India are of mixed Caucasian/Aryan and Asian ancestry, so if he is anti-”White” he is a 1st class hypocrite, as well as choosing immigrants above Americans for jobs-neither is a resume enhancer, in my opinion...

This guy saying “all the right things” is very transparent.

India is so overcrowded that something has to be considered a solution.

Ooooo, I know, LET’S MOVE SOME PEOPLE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY.

Hypocrite, Trogen Horse, sneaky devil...whatever.

He will be going downhill faster than an Olympic ski medalist.

No thanks, why not let AMERICAN CORPORATIONS hire AMERICANS, instead of importing immigrants??

Congratulations for not having a knee jerk reaction and asking the right questions. I would like to know the answers too. Whatever it is, he specifically said it’s not about depressing wages of or replacing native born Americans using cheap imports. He needs to elaborate what he means by merit based.

Re: "Merit-Based Immigration"

Vivek Ramaswamy needs emergency instruction on political reality.

Asian-Indian Americans are the best educated and highest paid immigrant group in the USA.

One problem...

80% of Asian-Indian Americans voted to reelect Barack Obama in 2012.

78% of Asian-Indian Americans voted to elect Hillary Clinton in 2016.

In 2020, Pew Research and Carnegie Institute did pre-election polling that showed Asian-Indians at 75% ++ for Joe Biden.

If there is 2020 exit polling for Asian Indians, I cannot find it posted on any free websites.
