DJT and Republicans are for LEGAL immigration, while Dems are for illegal immigration as they tend to vote democrat. Trump wants merit based immigration while Dems want illegal immigration.

The stated goal (explicitly and implicitly) of the Trump administration (TA) is massive reduction of all immigrants including legal ones. The 120K extra EB visas that you refer to is a side-effect of the administration's curbing of the consular processing abroad, resulting in spillover. It was by no means an intended policy and it remains to be seen whether all those visas will be used by the USCIS. The pandemic has been used as an excuse by the TA to curb immigration. Republicans might claim they are all for legal immigrants but we have seen the last 4 years that they have not delivered any relief.

The media might have their biases and they reflect their readership/viewership. Negative coverage or criticism is immediately labelled "fake news", while stories speaking positively of him (Fox News etc.) is deemed "real". The functioning of a liberal democracy depends on an informed citizenry and a free press. This president has tried to misinform the people and silence and discredit the press to levels seen only in autocratic nations.

The TA is one of the most corrupt governments every to rule, stemming from the fact that Trump is wholly corrupt himself, seeking only to enrich himself and his businesses, and this is reflected in his policies from the tax cuts to foreign policy. He stokes divisiveness and racism if it can help him stay in power. He has sought to destroy every norm and violated laws simply because there is no one to check him. His re-election will be the undoing of America.

There are so many red flags that it is impossible to write about all of them here. As immigrants we should lobby for fair and just treatment because we have been law-abiding all along. It is counterproductive in glorifying and getting sucked into the very politics that we as outsiders should know to avoid.

You were so much brainwashed by the media and I don't know where to start. You do not understand how this country was started and so much ignorant when it comes to facts. You are saying the TA is most corrupt government because of the media, give me an example of what corruption his administration made?
1. De-regulations and tax cuts to boost the economy?
2. Securing the borders to stop illegal immigration and human trafficking? Think about so many women and children.
3. Taking care of Vets?
4. Coming out of endless wars from the middle east and having done 3 (and more to come) peace deals? The president nominated for 3 times for the noble prize.
4. Highest unemployment rate 3.4, especially for black, Hispanic and Asian Americans?
5. 700K manufacturing jobs created when Barack Obama said you need magic wand for that (who is actually the most corrupt president in this country, along side George Bush)
8. Wages are rising and median house hold income rose.
9. Getting rid of ISIS caliphate and killing its leader?
10. Made this country energy independent, US is No.1 producer of energy now.
11. Signed favored nations law, which enables to get drugs prices lower.
12. Had the guts take on corrupt and communist China.
13. Many trade deals and replaced NAFTA with USMCA


These are just few accomplishments. You need to understand the master plan and what is going on with Globalism and going towards socialism/communism which will tear this country apart. Remember, this pandamic is planned which is part of the plan. Do some research. It is beyond me, how people can be this ignorant. You will all be future citizens some day, learn about the true history of this country and assimilate. I understand this is not a political forum, and we will keep this to immigration topics, but someone got me started and I will shut up now.

I have to admit it took me a while to understand Ace's humor!

As a matter of fact I did vote literally just now. No surprises there - voted Biden and Kamala the black tam brahm desi aunt.

Trump has got nothing to do with 120K extra visas for EB. It is a pure accident. If Trump had his way - Indians are not welcome in his America. Wake up folks.

I like NBK's post below. That's pretty much how I see things. But to be fair, there are two areas where I vehemently agree with Trump's actions - I just think those two things are out of his hatred for Obama and Obama supporters rather than out of his non-existent moral compass.

Those two things are:
1) Wars and the myth of terrorism
Trump has not initiated any new wars. He also has resisted initiating one with Iran even when tempted / prompted by usual war mongers like Graham. I totally like it. Also notice how under trump ISIS is totally gone. Because ISIS was nothing but an artificial creation of the war machine. At least that's what I think. Somehow under Trump they have gone away. (p.s. thus proving that there is no "Islamic" terrorism. It's all geopolitical games folks. Never ever stereotype people.)

2) Keeping pharmaceutical prices down.
Trump is totally after all these crooked pharmas. I like how he has forced them to give Americans better prices.

But other than these two things I think Trump is a total disaster and actually quite dangerous for not just Americans but the entire world. He has no moral compass and is completely unhinged. As I said - these two things are simply a way for him to be anti obama and distinguish himself. Look at his so called trade deals. They are not deals ... they are blackmails. That's an excellent way for destroy American empire. Those empires last that are relatively kind and just. Note the word "relatively". Anyway ... I can write pages after pages but enough said. Usually NRIs who support Trump are right wing folks from India (as you know I used to be one .... no more. American has shown me how beautiful all cultures and people are and how we should never ever stereotype people based on color religion race gender or anything else).

- FALSE. Everywhere he has helped his rich friends.
2. Securing the borders to stop illegal immigration and human trafficking? Think about so many women and children.
- FALSE. He is not worried about human trafficking. He is worried about browning of America. He is so brutal he separated children from parents as a policy.
3. Taking care of Vets?
- FALSE. Obama did that. Trump is falsely claiming credit.
4. Coming out of endless wars from the middle east and having done 3 (and more to come) peace deals? The president nominated for 3 times for the noble prize.
- Mostly TRUE. But I refuse to believe this is out of any kindness or moral compass.
4. Highest unemployment rate 3.4, especially for black, Hispanic and Asian Americans?
- Part true. But basically Trump inherited a solid economy from Obama. Tax cuts definitely spurred it.
5. 700K manufacturing jobs created when Barack Obama said you need magic wand for that (who is actually the most corrupt president in this country, along side George Bush)
- FALSE. Just look at latest data (I believe NYT published beautiful charts). All presidents have lost manufacturing jobs except bill clinton under who they grew 1.2% net.
8. Wages are rising and median house hold income rose.
- FALSE. Covid has turned American GDP as well as income with a net negative growth. But even without COVID we should not conflate stock market welfare and real median income growth. I don't think it is true. Happy to be proven wrong if you show me data.
9. Getting rid of ISIS caliphate and killing its leader?
- Mostly true. I have minor disagreement but not worth discussing.
10. Made this country energy independent, US is No.1 producer of energy now.
- FALSE. It happened under Obama. Obama is the one who spurred all kinds of alternative energy including Fracking wind etc. Under Obama US became the top oil producer and net exporter and is now on its way to becoming one of the largest if not the largest gas producer.
11. Signed favored nations law, which enables to get drugs prices lower.
- Absolutely TRUE. This is great.
12. Had the guts take on corrupt and communist China.
- FALSE. Really? Corrupt communist china? There is no way in this world you are going to put the genie in the bottle. Chinese people have woken up and China is already superpower. There is no way in the world you can be antagonistic to them and try to force them. The only way forward is cooperation and mutual interest and diplomacy. Trump is the worst person to deal with China (which is a threat if you make it to be).
13. Many trade deals and replaced NAFTA with USMCA
- FALSE. I think they all are shams. Nothing substantial signed. Trump is simply rebranding the same old thing and taking credit. Again happy to be proven wrong. Give me a summary how USMCA is better than NAFTA.

Other than this I think I have no words when educated people say that this was a planned pandemic. Folks you can plan a war but not its outcome. A pandemic is worse than a war because there is just no way to control it especially when there is no vaccine or therapy. COVID could have been an accident but this is no planned pandemic. No government would deliberately do this.

Good points made.
I wish I could only emphasize socialist progressive policies don’t make a communist nation.
The false equivalence is mind boggling.
Social security and Medicare is the biggest socialist program in the world .. yes
;the republicans literally have a war against science. DT has a war against facts in general.
Only thing matters is stock market and business loss/ gain ( not median income but profits of the corporations)His rallies speeches; debates all point to that -
he has a dog whistle ; if you don’t see it I am
Surprised
He has shown poor moral compass as well time and again
He is proven to lie all the time
I will say this ; I might be better off economically under a republican govt; but the cost of that is way too high for my
Anyways, we are stuck with whoever the American people elect. Qesehmk good to see you voted blue down the ticket.it is absolutely necessary

Knowing history and learning from it and correcting the mistakes( blunders)
OR
Knowing history and condoning it.

I prefer the first.

How America started and where it came from is not necessarily a better place; that we should aspire to bring back.

And what does assimilation even mean in this context ? Or what does assimilation have to do with this discussion ?
This sounds more like ‘ shut up and know your place’ to me

I do not believe Trump went after big pharma, and certainly not for the sake of good public-policy; he has several vested interest in drug companies, and when he feels he directly or indirectly benefits personally (financially or politically), he will squeeze one company or drug manufacturer, and claim he is being tough on them as whole.

Just look at how he touted HCQ as a wonder-drug for CoViD-19. He has states and agencies hoard this drug for no good reason except his family is holding a mutual fund that is invested in the Sanofi (manufacturer of HCQ). He claimed that he was taking it himself, which was a complete lie. There was a mad rush from ordinary citizens to buy the drug for themselves because the president said that it works. I mean, his "beautiful" healthcare plan is always been 2 weeks away---for the last 4 years.

He is bane to all ordinary people, and boon to the corrupt swamp that operates under the cloak of "capitalism".

It is surprising that in this country you can survive and flourish without paying what you owe in millions, but can't survive if you owe a few thousand buck (most people with bad credit are low income people or who messed up their earning and savings). I guess it is no different on that aspect than India that you can borrow crores and no one asks if you default, but if you take thousands or lakhs the banks are always after you and your life.

Interesting info on Sanofi. Quite plausible! Thanks.

I don't have words to express my amazement and disappointment that anybody in this forum would have good things to say about the TA. It is inconceivable!

My first action after receiving GC in hand was to go plant the Biden/Harris sign on the lawn (I had asked a neighbor to hold on to one for me for when time comes) and make a donation to the Great Slate campaign (https://secure.actblue.com/donate/great_slate).

Dem's have their own faults for sure - but they are not hell bent on throwing you out of the country for any possible reason. Anybody who still believes that Republicans are FOR legal immigration has his/her heads in the sand for past many years.

I agree with you Q that a planned pandemic is far fetched, at the worst we can say China might have fudged the impacted numbers. But we may also argue that they were able to control the spread better because of strict lockdown. And on parties, everyone will have for and against all the time. But in the recent timeframe the bar has fallen down for the basic decency and courtesy in American politics and is now at the level of Indian politics a lot.

Fascism knocking on US capitol's doors. It's been more than 20 years in US but never seen such anarchy.

Really? where were you 4 years back? or the past year with various BLM events?

I am right here. BLM is not same as people attacking capitol.

Spoken like a fascist by the way.

I can say the same about you, but I wouldn't.

My point was that you conveniently fail to recognize the events 4 years back when the current president got elected or all the events that have happened over the past year.

But, all of sudden you see some protest from a group that you dont agree with, and its fascism.

Anyway - this is your forum and this is a free country. I hope you take this the right way when someone challenges you.

You already said enough and that's ok. It is a free country. The reason I called you fascist is because you couldn't differentiate between fascists using violence to subvert entire constitutional proceedings of congress vs BLM protesters and granted some were rioters.

Do you have no clue who I am, yet you so loosely associate the word fascist with me by a mere comment that I made. That reveals a lot more about you than me. I would never judge anyone until I have a very clear understanding of who that other person is. Again, that is me. Hypocrisy is abundantly available nowadays, it seems.

---

I know enough to say so and I made it clear why. I haven't yet heard you acknowledge there BLM and capitol assault today are not the same?

That does not make me a Fascist. Does it?

it absolutely does because you can't differentiate violence to overthrow a government vs general protest+riots.

I can only laugh at your analysis. Anyways, it was a good discussion!

It was a pathetic discussion and I hope I don't see you around here again. Fascists not welcome here.

The bulletin release in the 2nd week is a welcome change. Eb2 has moved 3 and half months while Eb3 has done 2 months.
For EB2 there was around 4000 total applicants from Jan 15th to May 1st which DOS appear confident to process next month. USCIS needs to ensure they can service those numbers. The new director Alexander looks like he can make positive directions for USCIS and get the institute back as a Service instead of enforcement.

I dont want to berate DT supporters but I do want to mention how things soured for them.
I still remember people running floor to floor in our apartment and chanting DTs name when he won in 2016. As things went downhill and when the very same Indian supporters were left hanging for dear life by SM, I saw them groan and hope for change in 2020. They should reflect on what would have been if 2020 had turned differently...forget getting current, we would have seen the full force of public charge, dates not moving, visas getting wasted, H1 restrictions getting beyond stifling...mea culpa is not a bad thing

very well said. I think difference between 2016 and 2020 is that some people decided that these things does not matter in 2016, but they really saw how bad it could be, so they all voted again.

Appreciate your kind and balanced comment. Believe it not I like DT on two things: 1) He made no new wars. The only US president since Eisenhower to not engage in any war!! 2) He lowered pharma prices and insurance premiums.

But as far as immigration goes - he was and is absolutely racist. I do not want to distract this thread and thus I move all such comments there.

Dems have been always more open to immigration but this "date movement" has been caused by corona/china :cool: Miller really hated immigrants in general but I won't give the "Credit" to Biden either whose focus on DACA more. Thx to China/Corona.

BTW: I'm current too. March 30th, 2010 PD.

Thanks Q for your comments, I would love to talk to you more in other thread or via DM. BTW, I am current in this bulletin.

Priority Date: 04/02/2010

Processing Center: TSC
Having EAD since 2012.

Congratulations to all who became current, hope you guys get GC soon and I hope others who are waiting to get current soon.

Great to hear all the good news! Congratulations to those who got current.

Noob question: For all the other areas where DT government unleashed terror (especially in last 1-2 years), could we expect similar progress ?

Specially relevant for people who changed jobs and need to restart PERM.

Examples:
- Increased times for prevailing wage determination
- PERM processing time increased to 8-10 months
- H4 and H4 EAD processing times increased to 8-10 months

DT has caused America systemic degradation of its institutions. Immigration is just one aspect.

Even though DT is out of power, his followers occupy all levels of government. That's why IMHO we see the progress against the capitol rioters is so slow. Because there is unbelievable amount of distrust.

And thus it is a delicate and huge challenge in front of biden to undo that damage. I would be ecstatic if Biden admin can even cut half the damage. I do not expect them to restore anything back to normal.

Prabakar - long road it has been isn't it? Congratulations on being current.

We can chat about Trump here! Moved all things trump to this thread.
