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.”

    What he really means is “Talented Americans cost too much”.

    I once had a boss tell me to my face that I had to work three times as hard as the team members in Eastern Europe, because they were paid three times less than I was. Yeah, I didn’t stay long after that.
