Trouble in paradise. The secret of Trump's success is that he promised people impossible things, especially to his base. So, his galvanized base will be angry at him when they see he lied, and who knows what will happen next. But the other thing is that he's the only one who can keep MAGA alive with his lies, so in a way they need each other to exist.
Sure, it would be nice if all tech jobs went to Americans and not to people on H1BVisa, but that would mean that college education should be free - which these people are against - which would also mean that billionaires should pay taxes.
Quote:'Are you selling us out?': Trump's new comments met with immediate backlash from MAGA base
Donald Trump on Saturday was hit with outrage from his own base, after the president elect sided with billionaire Elon Musk over other MAGA personalities.
Laura Loomer is among those far-right influencers who have picked a fight with Musk over certain immigration visas, which he says are necessary for him and other executives to conduct their regular business. Other Trump supporters argued that big businesses should instead rely upon talented workers from the United States.
Raheem Kassam, editor-in-chief of the National Pulse, said, "Denounce mass migration of H1Bs!"
A Truth Social user by the name of Joseph, who is known as @realconservitive and proudly boasts he has never voted for a Democrat, said, "#H1BVisa kills American jobs! PUT AMERICA FIRST AS PROMISED! Or MAGA will be destroyed!"
"Labor shortage in tech industry is a big lie. Don’t listen to F ing Elon!" the user added.
A user who claims to have voted for Trump, Aaronminus, also weighed in.
"Clarify your position on this now. Are you selling us out to Big Tech? Or are you America First? 'Buy American Hire American'? Remember?" the user wrote.
Another Trump supporter, Andrew Graf, who has a photo of Trump hugging a flag for a profile photo, simply said, "Abolish H1B!!!!!!!!!!!!"

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
