India is taking our jobs. It is not going to happen anymore, folks!” - Trump

[Indika]

What Americans do not yet realize is that they get all the cheap, affordable and advanced products/services from China/India/Vietnam etc., stop this trade, stop sending service related jobs to India, stop buying top quality products from China and stop factories operating in China/Vietnam etc., and the people will be begging to bring back the old outsourced system. It's quite simple actually, 4 Indians (in India) and 6 Chinese (in China) work on the same package as every American (average salary of USD 4k/month).

Very true, the fact is if those goods/services were to manufactured in US it will be so expensive that americans themselves cannot afford it.

Not his biggest fan, but he speaks the truth. Americans need a President who can crack down hard on the powerful lobby backed H1B program and outsourcing!

True .... but Trump will never be President.

never say never, and send some good wishes his way for tomorrow, may he wrap up the nomination in a landslide

He's been railing against the Saudis for years

2011:

2016:

on US foreign policy blunders:

I'm not worried in the least about his campaign rhetoric about "India stealing jobs", it's just rhetoric, but President Trump will dump the Saudis as allies, and that'll go a long way is stabilizing the middle east and be good for the rest of the world in general.

As I have said earlier, he is very good for India and I want him to win. But reality is he will NEVER Win the presidential race.

Its a bit like Modi's victory. 80% of the Hindus had to vote for Modi for him to become PM. Similarly 80% of Whites have to vote for Trump for him to be president. Its not going to happen.

 

[Ankit Kumar]

I would choose a republican any day. Trump will be good for us.

 

[navtrek]

So when someone writes the truth, you call it butt-hurt? It doesn't take away the fact that once Indians get in, they do everything (lobby, cash, $$$$) to bring the remainder of India into the deal and screw the local country's system by taking jobs away. Its the reality.

Globalization is a double edged sword my friend.

There is nothing wrong in reserving the Job for locals Mr. Trumh but Your idiot americans are unfit for the jobs which require high skills and knowledge. From where would you bring IT Professionals, researchers, Doctors and corporate executives? If you try to do that than your IBM, Face book and Microsoft shall be reduced to a local american company on the verge of being closed. To compete with Indians is non of your cup of tea.

Dont say that shhhh...
They like the idea of Capitalist consumer society but fail to produce people who are skilled enough to work.for low wages
The profits and consumerism will go down once they employ their own people with high wages ,and the great american dream will fall.
But dont say that to them,it is a blessing in disguise for India.I am all for Trump to Win,It is good for India.We will build our base once this guy wins,there will be a reverse brain drain and all the best minds will return back home.

You don't see the problem with that statement? Ya, I know you Indians may like to delude yourselves into thinking these jobs are because, as the other poster put it, " idiot americans are unfit for the jobs which require high skills and knowledge.", but of course the reality is that India is just cheap labour for those jobs. India is just so vastly poor compared to us, Americans could never work that cheaply. And who do you think created the internet, the home computers, the software, that your IT services work for? I guess those idiot Americans did.

Yes, you are wrong. We have a powerful presidential system. We have no prime minister or parliamentary system. The president is both Head of State and Head of Government in one man or woman. The president runs foreign policy, is the undisputed commander-in-chief of the armed forces, can sign executive orders into being, can veto legislation he doesn't like and then it can only pass by a 2/3rd's vote, etc. The House of Representatives has the "power of the purse" and the Senate has the power to block presidential appointees to any office, clock treaties or agreements with other countries, etc.

What do you mean,he can veto but if 2/3rd's of votes are reached,the veto doesnt mean anything?
The Senate can block presidential appointees,like the Judge to the Supreme Court,block clock treaties and agreements with other countries?
What kind of power is it when a Democrate is president and the Senate is Republican?

A presidential veto can be overridden if 2/3rds of the Congress votes to do so, but that is pretty tough to do. President Obama for example, has never had a single one of his vetos overridden.

The Senate can block presidential appointees,like the Judge to the Supreme Court,block clock treaties and agreements with other countries?

Yes, but again, it is not as easy as it sounds. They have to have not just a majority vote, but enough votes, again 2/3rds, to override a filibuster that any sitting president's allies in the senate, could mount. That would block the senate from taking any action. The president can then just make a recess appointment in hopes of getting a more favourable senate at the next election.

Still considerable. The Republican Congress can block allot of things, but that's about it. They can't really get passed anything they want without the threat of a presidential veto, so gridlock. Presidents can use things like recess appointments and executive orders to get done what they want. Mr. Obama has used executive orders prolifically.

If Obama comes with a candidate for the Supreme Court,the Republicans already stated that they will block the nominee,whoever it is,what kind of bs is that?
And can Obama still appoint the Judge he wants for that position if the Senate(Republicans 51% at least) says no?

The Republicans in the senate can, but they would face two hurdles. Firstly, President Obama can make a recess appointment while the Senate is out of session. It would be much, much, more difficult to vote to remove him after he is already sitting on the court. In fact, no recess appointed member of the Supreme Court has ever been removed by the Senate. Secondly, the Democrats in the Senate can filibuster the issue so the Republicans can never even bring it to a vote.

Personally, I think he is a megalomaniacal jackass, who is not a real conservative, not a real Republican Party member, but he has tapped into a deep seething anger among a large sector of the American people. I don't know if it's enough for him to beat Sen. Clinton in November, but it's out there, and one can feel it. People are pissed.

The way to look at Trump is to understand that unlike many other democracies, America has only two very large, "catch-all" political parties. (We still have dozens of minor ones that are on every ballot, but Americans just don't vote for them.) So Sen. Bernie Sanders, Hillary's rival, belonged to a regional socialist party, but "caucuses" sits with the Democratic Party. Just as Trump is really, just using the Republican Party. He is really the American version of say, France's National Front, or the Netherlands' Party of Freedom.

I could be wrong, as I don't live in the United States, but from what, I can see and hear almost all of American politicians are way out of touch from reality.

Is that the reason why these idiot Americans in their eagerness to consume more outsourced their jobs to Indians?
When you reach a point where profit goes down,then you have to cut down on expenses or stop consuming more.
You are not going to stop consuming because that is the American dream being fed to you by your politicians,so there comes a point where companies will look for cheaper labor to maintain the profits and productivity.
Gloating over not working for lesser wages is not something to be proud of when you have no jobs, at the same time not willing to cut on expenses incurred.
All your Economy is based on War,sadly that is where you sunk in 2006,you pumped cash into Iraq,afghanisthan and middle east crisis,thinking it will pay you off, it got you nowhere,So you see the after effects of war on your economy.

Yes those idiot americans who invented did,because the best minds from other countries went there,once Trump comes to power,the brain drain will stop.That is why i say,Trump is good for India and other countries.

Indians thought that Trump will target Muslims only, and they were desperate for Donald to become president, well its backfired on Indians, Its time Indians realise they are in for a very tough time if republicans come to power.

Indians backed Trump not because he will target Muslims only,because we know he will have a indirect effect on India.
He will stop the brain Drain and will make Indians improvise and create new technology and jobs,
