This is what so many don't understand. Other countries don't want us. Why would they?
If you have some skill that they are short on. That is the main reason. In that way you aren’t just some filthy American, your a skilled worker.
That excludes most of us. For example I'm a pricing analyst. Doubt they'd even need me, let alone all the people working retail or customer service positions.
Yeah most of the auto mechanics probably voted for Trump, but a lot didn't. We have a ton of people working in restaurants, driving for Lyft, etc.
Most people are fucked.
This mechanic voted for Harris.
This mechanic is also never worried about anything. Republican or Democrat, your car breaks down all the same, and I'll be waiting with a bill that doesn't give any sort of a shit about inflation as you're all well-aware.
And by the way? This is Trump's point of view, and it's hilarious to see it not called fascism just because it's a person from another country.
Wait what? If an economy is to accept an immigrant, that immigrant should be either contributing to society, seeking asylum, or both.
Yeah. Trump has said that we're taking in too many undesirables from other countries, and he's bad for that.
