H1B Visa Program
Hundreds of workers at Disney were forced to train their foreign replacements. But while Florida Senator Nelson rallied to their cause, Senator Rubio did not. While Nelson has called for an investigation, Rubio has not. While Nelson has called to reduce H-1Bs, Rubio has demanded more. Senator Rubio has been the top promoter in Congress for expanding the H-1B program even though millions American tech workers are out of jobs. Rubio’s new bill triples H-1Bs and has zero protections for American workers. Advocates for tech workers said Rubio’s bill would “destroy” the U.S. tech workforce. Rubio’s bill is even endorsed by the CEO of Disney.
It’s a disaster. It would allow any company in America to replace any worker with cheaper foreign labor. It legalizes job theft. It gives companies the legal right to pass over Americans, displace Americans, or directly replace Americans for good-paying middle class jobs. More than 80 percent of these H-1Bs are paid less than the average wage. Senator Rubio works for the lobbyists, not for Americans. That is why he is receiving more money from Silicon Valley than any other candidate in this race. He is their puppet.

Here is what I do not understand, what exactly is President Trump going to do? He cannot pass any laws without Congressional support. Does everyone need a civics lesson?

Hold on, amore. We're talking about Rubio, actually.
Perhaps Donald, too, in a kettle-pot or equivalence sort of way.
Cruz (as you know), I want to punch in the face.

Mr. Trump has already noted in a video on his Facebook page that he will spend Day One issuing Executive Order after Executive Order because, as he notes, "the President doesn't need Congress" to get things done.
If it weren't so serious, I would chuckle.

(sorry, couldn't resist ... yes, I think Mr. Trump would wreak havoc in the White House ... so, there's a part of me that says ... "Hmmm ..." actually having some pretty strong leftist beliefs and all. But no. Just ... no.)

"Herr Cheeto?" LOL.
I find the whole thing despicable. The "engine" of the traditional American Middle Class was simple: pay your workers enough to buy your products.
