Think from the globalists' perspective.
1) Cripple the US with a flood of low-trust, low-cost, low-talent H-1Bs.
2) Cripple India by stealing their brightest as O-1s;
3) Annex Canada, Greenland, & Panama to get their North American Technate.
Win-win-win.

"Musk and other tech barons argued this week that the H-1B visa program is critical to ensuring American companies can find highly skilled labor which may not be easily available in the U.S. labor force and must be expanded.
"MAGA hardliners want Trump to follow through with his promise to promote US workers and impose tougher restrictions on immigration.
"Trump’s Saturday comments come a day after Musk vowed to go to “war” on the issue, telling one mocking opponent to go “f–k yourself.”

Don’t lose your heads about MAGA on the issue. The same types of ruling class parasites have always jumped in to nerf Trump’s potential. Yes he generally doesn’t recognize what’s happening but his instincts don’t let him get totally subverted either.
Trump never does enough but at the same time always moves in the right direction. We are fighting the long fight, and MAGA’s inheritor will recognize how to better feed populism. We are on the most correct path. Boomerism is fading.

TIL in the 1990s a man gained an edge on a Spanish casino by recording roulette wheel results & analyzing them with a computer. He was able to predict certain numbers were more likely to hit next. After he won €600K, a legal case against him was unsuccessful; it ruled the casino should fix its wheel
