    Well maybe if Trump started doing that instead of constantly lying, cheating people out of the promises he made, alienating and insulting his foreign allies, and generally pissing off everyone he crosses paths with, it might be a good start. So far he has done nothing but that. Trump is an embarrassing liability, and America is rapidly losing friends, respect and international standing-all the important stuff. Trump has done that, all by himself. Congratulations on electing a useless retard and an arrogant prick who can't tell right from wrong.

    Name them.

    America's allies started second guessing America during the past eight years wondering if they were next to be thrown under the bus by the Obama White House.

    Donald Trump is not part of the U.S. oligarchy or the foreign oligarchy and it's the foreign oligarchy who pulls the puppet strings of most of the worlds governments.

    For the first time since 1989 the oligarchy isn't pulling the strings in the White House.

    Why do you think the "New World Order" are actively trying to take down President Trump ?

    Trump's appointees constitute the most elite oligarchy in history.

    You said he was doing it now, and yet have noproof to show how. Why wait four years? One can look at what he has done in the past and see he is lying now just as he lied to his business partners, his wives, to the Courts, etc., in the past.

    I'm talking about your dismissal of left leaning companies who do a large portion of their work overseas.

    I don't believe I distinguished between the two. Apple, Google, etc., are obviously left leaning corporations. In any event, the topic was referring to the hypocrisy of Trump.

    So the issue you have with this is that one visa is being allowed to continue to use by businesses that express need for them? The two different visas are for two very different types of employment, skills, and industry. Hotels and resorts, especially those that only need temporary seasonal help can often be located in more remote areas where the population is low. Think of Jackson Hole WY and other resorts around National parks for example. I know where I live, which has lots of tourism and very low population, has businesses that are only open for 7 or 8 months of the year. With the low population and seasonal work, it's very hard for them to find people to work the jobs. These visas are two different situations and should be treated like such.

    We can't force welfare recipients to do anything, the democrats have made sure that we would be severely hand slapped for even attempting such thing. I'd be all for it, but it's cruel and unusual punishment to make them work.

    There is that right wing deflection, I call it idiocy, again. Your claim was: "I'm talking about your dismissal of left leaning companies who do a large portion of their work overseas.". So far you have posted nothing to show where I ignored them. All you did was repeat my answer.

    'You' can actually force them which was exactly what was stated 'you' were going to do before the election - 'you' are the government with complete control of both houses. It was 'us' who were saying that 'your' promises were foolish, uneconomic and unworkable but that promise was just made to fool the gullible. The fruit pickers and building labourers were the major topic at time

    You understand that would be NEW products made overseas or NEW businesses that MOVE out....details, details. Trump NEVER SAID, he would raise taxes on products or businesses currently working/made outside the country.

    Yes, details, details. ANY product made out of country is a "new" product. While Trump did speak of using tariffs to prevent companies from moving out of country, his main tariff plan was aimed at companies already out of country.

    Oh? Did you condemn them for operating overseas while reaping record benefits? I must have missed that post.
