    This is very important. My wife is an immigrant on a green card. If Trump has adverse plans for lawful immigrants, I really need to know.

  2. He has literally said nothing about legal immigrants except that he welcomes them here.

  3. It's tough to talk policy when you only see headlines.


    This is also a mistake. I don't want that stupid wall, but what a terrific bargaining chip in leverage for deals. He already put the burden on Mexico, leave it there until NAFTA is renegotiated with a $150/h peso minimum wage.

    Which is legal.

    Most of these shits are just ways for companies to not pay American workers. Good paying middle class jobs. Fuck the H1B program.

    There are no rules, only consequences.

    Right. But if you can accept the premise that someone here on a visa is a legal immigrant, then you can't say

    He has vowed to cancel visas to countries who won't "take back" the people we deliver to them. It's in his first 100 days policy. Students are terrified by this.

    I guess the intent is for them and their families to put pressure on their government to change and take the criminals back.

    The thing is, that sort of thinking rarely works. The allies bombed civilians during ww2 hoping the civilians would force a change in their government. They never made that change and it is debatable how much the average German could do without being shot.

    But hey, it should be some good ammo for anti-american rhetoric abroad.

    Thiiiiis. I'm in defense mode based on things that have come out of Trump's mouth, but he hasn't done shit yet. It's fine for the media to speculate because it's their job to speculate, but the rollercoaster of emotions that come from each click bait headline is wearing thin on me already.
