USCIS Agency Rejects More H-1B Visa Workers: Thousands of Indian Workers are Displacing Americans
- Thread starter Surprize!
- Start date
You’re a liar. Trump talks against Mexicans and blacks, although he employs Mexicans at his resorts. He says that Mexicans are rapist and murderers., and has locked up thousands of babies and children in cages. He doesn’t talk against any other group but black people and Mexicans. He refers to black countries as “shit-hole” countries. He never mentions Indians and Chinese in tech jobs.
9 Outrageous Things Donald Trump Has Said About Latinos
“They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists.”
By Carolina Moreno
His anti-Latino remarks have cost him several business partners since the launch of his campaign in June, including NBCUniversal, which aired Trump’s reality show “The Apprentice” and co-owns the Miss Universe Organization. Several prominent figures in the Latino community have also spoken out against Trump; actress America Ferrera and singer Ricky Martin published scathing op-eds condemning Trump’s actions and rallying Latinos to unite against him.
Even though only 18 percent of Hispanics take Trump seriously as a presidential candidate, the Republican has vowed that he “will win the Latino vote” if nominated.
If Trump wants to win the Latino vote, he might want to learn from past mistakes. Here are 9 of the most outrageous things the presidential candidate has said about Latinos.
- 9 He Called Latino Immigrants “Criminals” And “Rapists”

In Trump’s speech when he announced his candidacy for president, he began by comparing Mexican immigrants to “rapists” and then decided to broaden the scope of his insult to all Latinos. Shortly after his initial “rapists” remark in his speech, the candidate expanded his comments beyond Mexico. “It’s coming from more than Mexico,” he added. “It’s coming from all over South and Latin America...” - 8 He Said Mexicans (And Other Immigrants) Were “Killers” Too

After his anti-Latino remarks, Donald Trump was asked to clarify his comments on CNN’s “State of the Union”. Instead, he decided to call Mexicans “killers,” as well. - 7 He Insisted The Mexican Government Intentionally Sends Their Criminals To The U.S.

In an interview with Fox News’ Chris Wallace, Trump responded to his previous claims that the Mexican government was purposefully sending undocumented criminals over the border. - 6 He ‘Provided Evidence’ That Latino Immigrants Were Rapists

When asked to provide evidence for his claim that Latino immigrants crossing the border were rapists on CNN’s “The Situation Room,” Trump told host Don Lemon he got his information from a Fusion article. When Lemon corrected him — explaining that article actually said 80 percent of women and girls from Central America are raped by human smugglers, gang members other migrants or government authorities while immigrating to the U.S. — Trump shot back dismissing the victims and suggesting Latino immigrants were the ones raping the victims. - 5 He Took A Jab At Jeb Bush Over His Mexican-Born Wife
- Trump doesn’t dehumanize or take jabs at Chinese or Indian tech workers. However, he does denigrate Blacks and Mexicans
- Donald Trump retweeted (and then deleted) a comment meant as a jab to fellow GOP candidate Jeb Bush. The tweet suggested that Bush would have more lenient views on immigration reform because of his Mexican-born wife, Columba.
- 4 He Brought Up Jeb Bush’s Wife Again Less Than Two Months Later
Trump retweeted another follower that said Jeb Bush was crazy and spoke “Mexican” — which is not a language but a reference Bush’s wife’s roots. - 3 He Said His Followers Were “Passionate” After Being Told Two Men Beat A Hispanic Man In His Name

Two brothers reportedly attacked a 58-year-old Hispanic homeless man in Boston, breaking his nose and urinating on him, in mid-August. They allegedly told police they targeted the man because of his ethnicity and added, “Donald Trump was right, all these illegals need to be deported.” After the GOP candidate was told of the attack, instead of denouncing the act Trump said his followers were “passionate.” Later the presidential candidate tweeted about the incident, saying he would “never condone violence.”
- 2 He Kicked Jorge Ramos Out Of A Press Conference

When award-winning Hispanic journalist Jorge Ramos attempted to ask Trump questions about his immigration stance during a press conference in Iowa, the presidential candidate refused to respond because he said Ramos had spoken out of turn. As Ramos attempted to finish his question, security approached him and physically removed him. Right before he was ejected from the conference, Trump told Ramos: “Go back to Univision.” On the way out a Trump supporter confronted the journalist, a U.S. citizen, and said: “You were very rude. It’s not about you. Get out of my country.” Ramos was eventually allowed back into the press conference to ask his question.
- 1 He Blamed Blacks And Hispanics For Violent Crime Across The Country
Trump first tweeted statistics that broke down New York City shooting suspects by race and ethnicity, citing Fox’s Bill O’Reilly as a source. Minutes later he tweeted again, correlating race and ethnicity with violent crime across the country. In response, media critic Eric Deggans wrote in the Tampa Bay Times: “There is no doubt that violent crime is a serious problem in communities of color. But connecting it to race in such a blunt and unfair fashion seems more about blaming certain kinds of people than solving the problem

Donald Trump Wants to Cut Visa Program He Used for His Own Models (Published 2016)
Mr. Trump says he will end the H-1B program, which allows certain skilled immigrants to work in the United States — including some employees of Trump Model Management.
On the campaign trail, Donald Trump said he wanted to crack down or end the H1B visa program that takes jobs away from skilled American workers like myself.
In practice, this is what happened:
H-1B visa denial rates skyrocket under Trump
Experts say the data reflects the Trump administration’s promised crackdown, but how much has the visa program really changed?
www.mercurynews.com
President Donald Trump’s promised crackdown on the H-1B visa had a dramatic impact last year, according to recently released federal data that shows immigration officials denied nearly one out of every four requests for new visas for skilled foreign workers.
That’s the highest denial rate for new H-1B visa applications in nearly 10 years and almost double the 13 percent rate in the prior fiscal year.
Trump is doing what he said in this area; cutting the outsourcing of jobs to overseas countries where labor is cheap. All those are jobs that could/should go to Americans.
H1B's directly affect me and I can't stand the shit. It's bad enough that I have to compete with Indians, Chinese, Ukranians, etc while working for myself, but to have to compete against them for local jobs too??? Nah b, that's fuck shit right there and I'm glad he's cutting into that.

It's a very well known fact that while Trump talks shit about Latinos, Barak Obama rounded up and deported more of them in his eight years than every president in the last 100 years combined. For fucks sake the man's nickname was "Deporter In Chief" for a reason.
The cages that you're blaming on Trump were also Obama's. All those early pictures of kids in cages were exposed as having been taken in 2014; under Obama's administration, not Trump's.

Obama Immigrant Detention Policies Under Fire
Since the unaccompanied minors crisis last year, the Obama administration is walking a fine line. With a backlog in the courts, many immigrants remain detained with an uncertain future.

AP FACT CHECK: 2014 photo wrongly used to hit Trump policies
WASHINGTON (AP) — Since the government acknowledged last month that the Trump administration had lost track of nearly 1,500 immigrant children, the debate over what that means and who is to blame has roiled Twitter.

Always keep the strap on you!
I used to work at an immigration firm as a paralegal, where I would draft H1-B petitions. A lot of these Indians are getting paid $120k and up for various IT positions. Those who got degrees in their country, would get them converted to a BS in Computer Science/IT.
These same jobs that you're applying for and getting ultimately rejected from, Kumar, Rohit, and Apu Nahasapeemapetilon are getting with no problem. The caveat is that the US Gov't is telling these companies to pay the H1-B candidates these wages. It's fucked up because a qualified American worker will probably start at 32k (same credentials and skillset).
When Trump got elected, everybody's voicemail and inboxes were blown up.
