For the fourth time in about a month, Trump suggested increasing legal immigration levels. With Apple CEO Tim Cook sitting next to him at the White House on Wednesday, Trump said he not only wanted more legal immigration but that companies needed an expansion of new arrivals to grow their business.
“We’re going to have a lot of people coming into the country. We want a lot of people coming in. And we need it,” Trump said:
"It’s not a question of do we want more immigration, these folks are going to have to sort of not expand too much. And if we tell them … these are very ambitious people around this table. They don’t like the concept of not expanding. We want to have the companies grow and the only way they’re going to grow is if we give them the workers and the only way we’re going to have the workers is to do exactly what we’re doing."
The comments are a direct rebuttal of the president’s commitments in 2015, 2016, and 2017, where he vowed to reduce overall legal immigration levels to boost the wages of U.S. workers and reduce the displacement of America’s working and middle class.
In 2017, for instance, Trump touted Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) and Sen. David Perdue’s (R-GA) RAISE Act legislation, which would have cut legal immigration down to about 500,000 arrivals a year rather than the current admission of more than one million legal immigrants annually who compete against working-class Americans for jobs.
Trump, at the time, said legal immigration levels needed to be trimmed to “reduce poverty, increase wages, and save taxpayers billions and billions of dollars,” arguing that the current importation of more than a million legal immigrants every year “has placed substantial pressure on American workers, taxpayers, and community resources.”

I wasn’t talking about political parties, anon. I was talking about race. Blood is always thicker than party. And I have yet to see disparate Jewish ideologies not ultimately collapse on each other. Jews must Jew, even if it’s another Jew.

That's correct, but doesn't help whites in any way. If you want to trip the jews on top to make mistakes and stab each other in the back you have to drive the fear into them.

Maybe. Maybe not. But I’m open to the possibility that saving whites and ruining Jewish rule at the same time is no longer possible, at least in the USA. There’s no more time for undoing 70+ years of Holohoax guilting and about 100 years of (((Judeo-Christianity))) with how fast brown people are replacing US whites. I’ll take the risk of cutting US whites loose in exchange for actual progress on the Jewish question in the USA, even if it’s from a brown foreigner. Okay? Okay.
