Neither of Trumps new billionaire donors that he is now evidently beholden to should have attacked the American workforce the way they did. I personally took offense to being called dumb and retarded. After 30 years in tech and having lost countless jobs to cheap labor indentured servants, that I had to train, importing even more foreigners isn't a plan, it's an Invasion and concerted effort to put Americans out of work. Trump was on record stating he was against h1b visa in 2016, now he's suddenly for the practice. He can't have it both ways. Either he is FOR America first or he is for replacing us with indentured servants. He got called out and rightfully so. This is what healthy debate looks like. Everyone gets an opinion. There should be absolutely no immigration for the next 2 generations in the US. We're full up and Trump was elected on putting Americans back to work, not replacing us with slave labor.

Jennifer: i worked in the IT field for over 30 years in different companies (i have an information systems degree).The whole H1B visa thing was going on then. No one who was a native American who worked in IT liked it because it resulted in stagnant salaries and job loss. But all of us were powerless to change it. And we are still powerless to change it. My advice to young people: do not go into IT because the deck is stacked against you.
