When asked about H-1B visas that allow foreigners to work in the U.S. in high-demand jobs, the president trashed American workers, telling the Fox personality they are needed because, “Well, I agree, but you also do have to bring in talent.”

Pressed about his answer with, “We don’t have talented people here?” Trump bluntly stated, “No.”

    H1B is constantly abused to drive costs down. That’s where those “need 7 years experience on a 3 year old product” ads come from. Companies BS their way into claiming there’s no local talent so they can hire from abroad at a discount. The fact that Trump supports this is not a surprise. They literally want slave labor.
