If you import from third-world countries, you quickly become one — Trump

United States President Donald Trump has explained the reasons for his admistration’s broader efforts to tighten immigation policies, especially on third-world countries.

n

This was made known in a post on his Truth Social, renewing his criticism of immigration on Tuesday.

n

Trump opined that the large-scale migration from developing countries could affect the future of the United States.

n

He wrote, “Sadly, if you import people from Third World Countries, you quickly become a Third World Country– And there’s not a thing you can do about it. Make America Great Again!”

n

Recall that earlier this month, he criticised federal judges after a court struck down the administration’s plan to impose a $100,000 fee on H-1B visas.

n

Speaking to reporters while leaving New York after attending the NBA Finals, Trump said, “These federal judges are really giving us a hard time. It’s really crazy what’s going on with the court system…They are hurting our country very badly.”

n

The court ruled that the proposed H-1B visa fee amounted to an unlawful tax because it did not have approval from the US Congress. The decision was viewed as a setback for the administration’s efforts to restrict employment-based immigration and increase costs for employers hiring foreign workers.

n

The H-1B visa programme allows US employers to hire foreign professionals in specialised fields. The United States issues 65,000 regular H-1B visas annually and provides an additional 20,000 visas for applicants who hold advanced degrees from US institutions.

n

Also, on April 23, Trump shared a video featuring conservative author and radio host Michael Savage, who criticised birthright citizenship.

n

In the video, Savage claimed that immigrants take advantage of US laws by arriving in the country during the final stages of pregnancy.

n

Savage said, “A baby here becomes an instant citizen, and then they bring the entire family in from China or India or some other hellhole on the planet.”
