I'm bringing race into it when there's a dozen people in all of these identical threads screaming about how this is intentionally designed to support the Great Replacement of whites.

Ctrl+F "White" in this thread, and it's only you and people responding to you.

Three people mentioned "white" in another thread...one of them was you.

Four people mentioned "white" in the third thread...one of them was you, and you made up for 45% of uses of the word. And the others three people were all in a single comment chain, responding to each other.

Trump has never claimed he was going to end the H1B program that I'm aware of.

LOL.

https://x.com/realDonaldTrump/status/705624889282068480

Megyn Kelly asked about highly-skilled immigration. The H-1B program is neither high-skilled nor immigration: these are temporary foreign workers, imported from abroad, for the explicit purpose of substituting for American workers at lower pay. I remain totally committed to eliminating rampant, widespread H-1B abuse and ending outrageous practices such as those that occurred at Disney in Florida when Americans were forced to train their foreign replacements. I will end forever the use of the H-1B as a cheap labor program, and institute an absolute requirement to hire American workers first for every visa and immigration program. No exceptions.

I call out retarded shit in replies when and where I see it, and faggots don't like it. That includes this groyper gay ops.

You didn't read your own quote.

here's mine:

Trump has never claimed he was going to end the H1B program that I'm aware of.

here's the important part of yours because you didn't see it. I bolded the parts you missed.

eliminating rampant, widespread H-1B abuse ... I will end forever the use of the H-1B as a cheap labor program

Congratulations, Trump never said he intended to end H-1B. Just that he intended to "fix" it. You might not like it, and you might have assumed otherwise, but you do actually have to listen to him.

I hope you're just being disingenuous, because the alternative is worrying.

Also, you're the who set out the discussion that Trump didn't claim he'd end them. When no one was claiming the counterpoint.

"I've always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas...I’ve been a believer in H-1B...It’s a great program."

Does that sound anything like Trump's 2016 stance?!

Trump never said he intended to end H-1B.

Gimme a break. That's not what anyone was saying. Again, you're disingenuous, or worse.

Oh, by the way, here's the latest post of people screaming about how it's unacceptable that Elon Musk isn't a white nationalist: https://kotakuinaction2.win/p/19A12tOQL7/rugpulled-by-thedonald/c/

Because yes, that is how stupid this argument is from what I assume are a horde of groypers trying to retcon Elon into a WN.

Ok i think i get where the misunderstanding might be. I think, in light of what happened now I suspect what Trump may have meant was not ending H1Bs as a whole, but making H1Bs significantly more expensive.

Yes, it does sound like his 2016 stance because he likes the program and not the abuse of it. You might not like the way politicians and lawyers word their statements, but if you're going to be interested in politics, you have to watch their words very carefully. He never said there was a problem with the system itself, just with how it was being abused.

And, if no one is saying it, why is everyone acting like it. All he's said is that he'd fix the H-1B system. He isn't saying this is going to further white replacement. He isn't saying he supports mass migration. He isn't saying he intends on driving down wages with immigration. He's not saying any of these things. Really, like a lot of the time, he's not saying much of anything at all (which is why this whole argument is stupid).

More than anything, I'd be willing to bet he probably sees the response on twitter and will play a balancing act of appeasing his base, appeasing industry, and using H-1B denials to pressure other countries diplomatically and economically the way he intends to with tariffs.

2016:

...explicit purpose of substituting for American workers at lower pay. I remain totally committed to eliminating rampant, widespread H-1B abuse...I will end forever the use of the H-1B as a cheap labor program, and institute an absolute requirement to hire American workers first...

2020:

I've always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas...I’ve been a believer in H-1B...It’s a great program.

You're right, these statements sound completely identical. Just stop.

He never said there was a problem with the system itself, just with how it was being abused.

"The H-1B program is neither high-skilled nor immigration: these are temporary foreign workers, imported from abroad, for the explicit purpose of substituting for American workers at lower pay."

"It's a great program."

And, if no one is saying it, why is everyone acting like it.

You just lack reading comprehension.

More than anything, I'd be willing to bet he probably sees the response on twitter and will play a balancing act of appeasing his base, appeasing industry, and using H-1B denials to pressure other countries diplomatically and economically the way he intends to with tariffs.

Definitely a possibility, and would be nice. And I never said it wouldn't happen.
