Summary
Donald Trump publicly supported Elon Musk’s defense of the H-1B visa program for skilled foreign tech workers, despite opposition from some of his far-right supporters.
The debate was reignited after Trump appointed Indian-American AI expert Sriram Krishnan as an adviser, sparking criticism from immigration hard-liners.
Musk, a former H-1B holder, argued the program is essential for U.S. tech, while critics like Steve Bannon claim it undercuts American wages.
This stance marks a shift from Trump’s earlier policies limiting H-1B visas, highlighting tensions within his base over immigration policy.
Elon bought Trump, so this isn’t surprising.
Also, it’s clear that Trump just regurgitates whatever slop Elon says because he thinks it will make him look smart.
Billionaire got so many billions he can buy himself a little puppet billionaire*.
*Alleged billionaire
This should be the narrative on Xitter.
All of this so Elon can say he was legal. Lmao. Fucking children, man.
He was legal later, when he finally got that h1b. At the beginning he was on a student visa that he very illegally overstayed, then paid to have things fixed.
Lol
Great, get rid of the immigrants who work at backbreaking, starvation wage jobs to keep food prices low and import H1B immigrants who will take all those good paying jobs.
In my country the far right distinguishes between legal immigrantes, who are cannon fodder for exploitative industry and therefore good, and illegal immigrants, who are criminals and need to be segregated in detection camps.
Both types in any case ar discouraged from marrying the locals (public officers are resistant) and prevented from practicing their religion in public by local legislation (the national one is vague).
For one time I feel my country is ahead of the US 🤣😅😭 maybe it is because we invented fas**sm after all.
Wait… did we not see this coming?
Depends on if you’re a MAGA faithful or not. Because those are the folks that expect now that their votes mean nothing to him, to somehow still be important.
