politics and politicians Title: Trump: I’m ‘Changing’ and ‘Softening’ My Position on Visas, ‘We Need Highly Skilled People In This Country’ Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump stated that he was “changing” and “softening” the visa position in his immigration platform because “We need highly skilled people in this country” including “in Silicon Valley” during Thursday’s GOP presidential debate on the Fox News Channel on Thursday. Trump was asked by moderator Megyn Kelly,” Mr. Trump, your campaign website to this day, argues that more visas for highly skilled workers would ‘decimate’ American workers. However, at the CNBC debate, you spoke enthusiastically in favor of these visas, so which is it?” He responded, “I’m changing. We need highly skilled people in this country. And if we can’t do it, we’ll get them in. But — and we do need, in Silicon Valley. We absolutely have to have, — so we do need highly skilled. And one of the biggest problems we have, is people go to the best colleges, they’ll go to Harvard, they’ll go to Stanford, they’ll go to Wharton, as soon as they’re finished, they get shoved out. They go — they want to stay in this country. They want to stay here desperately. They’re not able to stay here. For that purpose, we absolutely have to be able to keep the brain power in this country.” He was then asked, “You are abandoning the position on your website?” He responded, “I’m changing it, and I’m softening the position, because we have to have talented people in this country.” Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest He was then asked, “You are abandoning the position on your website?” He responded, “I’m changing it, and I’m softening the position, because we have to have talented people in this country.” Trump fell on his ass and lost the debate. What he should of answered is that we need to develop talented people in this country and told them how to do it. We need fewer basket weavers, lawyers, and social agitators graduating from our defunct colleges and more engineers and industrialists. But he hasn't thought it through far enough.

Trump also should have said that, once President, he would limit the federal student loan program only to those seeking a career in engineering or any of the other sciences. If you want to get a degree in Queer Studies, you find a way to pay for it.
#4. To: cranky (#0) I'm betting the most hard-core Trumphette's are going to do so some spectacular tap-dancing around this one. Immigration and illegal aliens is the foundation stone their love is based on. ISLAM MEANS SUBMISSION! Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012) American Indians had open borders. Look at how well that worked out for them. #5. To: rlk (#1) But he hasn't thought it through far enough. Robert,he never thinks ANYTHING through. He is a salesman,not a designer.

But ,But ....he's still going to build a wall and have Mexico pay for it . "If you do not take an interest in the affairs of your government, then you are doomed to live under the rule of fools." Plato #7. To: tomder55 (#6) But ,But ....he's still going to build a wall and have Mexico pay for it . I know,and the truth is that in my heart I want to believe that nonsense,also. Who doesn't?

Your boy Rubio wants to make them citizens. I'm in Ohio. Cruz has no chance here. I could support Cruz or Trump. I'm voting Trump. He has the best positions.
#9. To: sneakypete (#4) I'm betting the most hard-core Trumphette's are going to do so some spectacular tap-dancing around this one. I think you'll lose that bet. This won't faze them in the least. There are three kinds of people in the world: those that can add and those that can't #10. To: cranky (#9) I'm betting the most hard-core Trumphette's are going to do so some spectacular tap-dancing around this one. On second thought,you are probably right. True Love doesn't notice boils and pimples. There was a French diplomat to VN that married a VN woman,and was married to her for over 20 years before she died and the coroner discovered "she" was a man. The diplomat explained that by saying his wife never allowed him to see her naked,and they always had sex in the dark. Methinks he didn't see what he didn't want to see,or want to admit having seen.

I'm guessing it's number two. There are three kinds of people in the world: those that can add and those that can't #12. To: cranky (#9) Now he has the same position as the rest of them. Not a big issue. I guess he could have waited until after the election like Rubio would do with immigration. I'd prefer to keep them out but we will never have someone we agree with all the time. I also don't agree with him on Apple, and some other things. But on balance he is a lot more good then bad. They all have positions I disagree with. They all have positions I agree with.
#13. To: sneakypete (#10) Methinks he didn't see what he didn't want to see,or want to admit having seen. Methinks it's a made up story. Impossible to have sex with a man if you are a man and think it is a woman. Not possible. Even in the dark. Even if you're blind and kind of stupid.
#14. To: A K A Stone (#12) Not a big issue. I believe the vast majority of his supporters will see it in the same or similar ways, that is to say, to discount it totally. There are three kinds of people in the world: those that can add and those that can't #15. To: cranky (#14) I believe the vast majority of his supporters will see it in the same or similar ways, that is to say, to discount it totally. He just went back to his original position. The position of Cruz and Rubio and probably Kasich. Sure i'd like it to be different. It's not like he shot some democrat in the streets.
#16. To: A K A Stone (#15) It's not like he shot some democrat in the streets. Exactly. There are three kinds of people in the world: those that can add and those that can't #17. To: A K A Stone (#13) Methinks it's a made up story. Yeah,but you are wrong more often than you are right. No real surprise,since your judgement is based on how posters stand on Trump being president. ISLAM MEANS SUBMISSION!

MEOW! потому что Бог хочет это тот путь #19. To: misterwhite (#3) I agree. And in the meantime, what, we do without? Hire the Americans you laid off in order to replace them with third rate foreign dumb-asses who work cheap.
#20. To: rlk (#19) "... who work cheap." Seems to me the solution is to eliminate the wage disparity.
