^This way Trump will lose more friends than gain. Trust me the world has seen stupidity but this dude is making American look like a country with no sense and education. I saw a video where trump basically bullying a reporting into submission, telling the reporter to sit down, in a tone that most people in the room were like wtf. And his guards took thw reporter away, and even told him to "leave my country"

Mal Turnbull IMO, will not be a very good PM for Australia, Australia were screwed over when they let Tony Abbott, get elected over K Rudd,
Bob Hawke and K rudd were the best prime minister Australia ever had, followed by Howard

Our PM not impressive,its true.The other guy who is opposition leader is a moron,speaks without thinking.
Rudd was the worst pm we ever had,put us in massive debt and made it impossible now to get a surplus,from ppl that knew him personally he was a c***.
All I want from Trump is the economy doesn't tank,that it blooms,we don't have a depression.And if we ar ever invaded America comes to our aid.
You never know what China will do or Russia.

Buijee i am no a fan of Trump,not a fan of any politician.
On Trudeax he is charismatic,looks good etc etc,lets see how his record stacks up after time.
I don't like when ppl get messianical about a leader.
They did with Obama,and their were no miracles there,yes things got better,but in some ways things got worse.
I am the same with the new pope,people rave about him,but whats he actually done,I mean the catholic church still covers up child sexual abuse.
Just the same with Trump people are running round like chickens saying he is the next anti christ,he is going to drop the bomb etc etc.
Lets see the first protest was women,and what was it about,clear and simple abortion and abortion rights.
Don't see anyone religious saying here we should abort foetuses. And Hilary Clintin wanted late term abortions,for goodness sakes.
Do people look at peoples policies.
Yes i looked at Trumps policies,some were real ****.
Me myself I just want him to simulate the world economy,thats all period.
The world including the likes of the Eu have been flatlining,Japan not so good and China is using a lot of debt to stimulate its economy.World wise the world economy not in a strong shape.
If America benefits then all the world will benefit from a booming US economy.

On the contrary this is a loophole/problem that should've been addressed by lawmakers long time ago. There's a whole lot of confusion surrounding H1B visas. I read the executive order that was allegedly leaked by the press. It only asks lawmakers/industry experts to evaluate the current system to determine if it requires amendment and seeks recommendations in the case of amendment.
The H1B visa was created to allow US employers to employ foreign workers under special circumstances when they could not find suitable local candidates. The minimum salary for these highly skilled workers was set to $60,000 almost two decades ago. Adjusted for inflation and increased demand, two decades later these jobs should easily pay $100k+, but the minimum salary requirement for H1B visas was never changed. In recent years they found that some of the largest Indian IT firms were gaming the system and exploiting this loophole at the expense of American workers. In many cases American workers with real experience are being overlooked for foreign workers who have little to no experience. Recently Disney fired 400 US workers only to replace them with H1B visa holders at much cheaper salaries. Unfortunately this has become a broader trend.
According to bills that are being proposed by lawmakers, what will likely happen is the minimum salary of H1B workers will be raised to $100K-$130K, which will provide companies better incentive to try and fill the positions with US workers. If they can't find US workers they can always sponsor foreign workers as all other Software companies are doing anyway. This is a very fair proposition.

I think a very reasonable question asked by Muhammad Al-Yaqoubi, he tweets..
"Can a judge overrule a president's order in the Muslim World? It happened in Caliph Omar's time. Justice is the foundation of power."

Understood... I do not think anyone should feel aggrieved if USA prioritizes their own interest.

'Trump Will Destroy Iran!' Saudis Cheer on Anti-Muslim President
Saudis love Trump because of his Anti Iran stance.
Of course the two devils love each other. No surprise there.....
I wish someone taught saudis the thousand years of Persian history and culture and compare that to their own history and culture which is probably 1 page long consisting of his Horniness King Saud.

Accurate assessment all jingoism aside this is portrayed as bad by the organisations who were exploiting this loophole. All these organisations wanted was to exploit the system and the H1B employee by spending less than the market rate.
Consulting organisations charge end clients 1.5-2 times(approx) the salary paid to the H1B employees with this model. They get fat at the expense of the H1B employee and the state.

Muhammad Ali's son stopped and harassed at the border. Guy doesn't even have a criminal record.
I wonder if one of the worst combo in the USA is Black and Muslim?
