Trump's Wall Street Approved Make America Great Replacement Theory Is Gunning For The Middle Class [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2024-09-25 As with everything else he does, Donald Trump’s immigration plan is a con for the fat cats on Wall Street and his MAGA base are the marks. The thing I’d love to have explained to me by MAGA voters is how their dear leader’s plans on immigration actually add up. Because based on what I’ve heard, it sounds like Trump’s MAGA base is about to get roundly punked by his immigration plans at the behest of fat cats on Wall Street and in Silicon Valley. Here’s what I’ve been hearing from Trump Inc. regarding immigration. Let’s see how it adds up. they never learn the language, they may be incredibly low IQ, they may come with no skills — Don Jr Virtually 100% of the new jobs under Biden have also gone to illegal aliens — Donald Trump Why can’t we allow people to come in from nice countries… Nice countries, you know like Denmark, Switzerland? Do we have any people coming in from Denmark? How about Switzerland? How about Norway? — Donald Trump Silicon Valley venture capitalist podcast host this summer: “Can you please promise us you will give us more ability to import the best and brightest from around the world to America?” Donald Trump: “What I want to do, and what I will do, is you graduate from a college, I think you should get automatically, as part of your diploma, a green card to be able to stay in this country,” Ignore the fact that nothing that these people say about brown-skinned immigrants reflects reality. But let’s pretend we’re all MAGAs for a second and try to figure out how this plan of theirs will work out for us, for our kids. So, the basic idea is that we will stop letting desperately poor brown-skinned people with low IQ’s and no skills come to our country — people by the way who by definition are too dumb to get into college and who are suited to nothing but the lowest wage most degrading jobs. But we will then start inviting in lots of white, very attractive, naturally intelligent ultra-capitalists disaffected with their social democracies. And somehow, this is going to make it easier for people in the MAGA constituencies to get their dream jobs. How does that add up? How are MAGAs going to compete with all of these really appealing new white immigrants when they already say they can’t compete with the “very unintelligent, very unskilled” ones coming in now? Are MAGAs trying to work as janitors for the rest of their lives? Are those the dream jobs Trump has in mind for them? Are MAGAs trying to lock down that career for their kids picking corn in 100+ degree weather? How does this add up? Because I can tell you one thing. Flooding the country with a lot of high level talent from countries like Denmark and Switzerland to displace American workers is EXACTLY what the fat cats on Wall Street and in Silicon Valley are salivating over. They’re already complaining about having to pay what they view as overly large salaries to under-skilled American workers. These big companies that are offering in many cases our best paying jobs are begging for more talent, especially non-American talent, specifically non-American talent who are willing to trade income for the “honor” of moving to the ultra-capitalist haven that is the United States. There are kids from the families of ultra-capitalists in every country, even Denmark. And Trump can’t wait to deliver this sweetheart deal to his sugar daddies in Silicon Valley. It’s the libertarian dream. You don’t have to invest in elementary and high schools in America because they’re already doing that really well in Europe. Then you just cherry pick those really bright, well prepared, pretty blonde kids and put them behind the desks that in the past had been reserved for America’s less well educated white MAGA middle class. Wall Street: Problem solved. Money saved. Productivity increased. So look. I know that MAGA doesn’t have this figured out. I know it’s actually really just about racism and aesthetics. They want to be magically surrounded by what in their imagination are pretty blonde people, not dark skinned people. But when you drive through the average American town and look at the people that live there... when you look at the obesity problems… when you look at the SAT scores of average Americans in high school… and then you think about these people trying to compete with someone from Denmark or Norway for that place at their state university, then the job in management at the local factory, a local business, heck even a teacher position... you just gotta ask yourself what these MAGAs are smoking and where you can get some. So no, it doesn’t add up at all, at least not to the benefit of MAGA America. There’s no way MAGAs will be able to compete under Donald Trump’s plan if they can’t compete against the immigrants they say are coming in now. Donald Trump is selling his voters a recipe to make them utterly redundant in the American workforce, to permanently relegate them to the jobs that the poorest brown-skinned people have been doing in this country since it was founded. He’s setting them up to be the peasant class for life. It’s exactly what JD Vance, Peter Thiel, and much of libertarian Silicon Valley have been begging for all along. And MAGAs are eating it up like pigs at the trough. It’s like watching them fall for the small town decimating pro-globalization policies that Wall Street and Republicans sold them in the 80’s and 90’s all over again. I don’t know what you can do to get MAGAs to stop destroying their own lives. I wish I did. It’s just tragic to watch them get fooled into doing it decade after decade after decade… simply because they’re drawn to racist moral panic like flies to sh#t. Donald Trump’s immigration plans aren’t for you, middle America. His immigration plans are for exactly the same wealthy big business owners in New York and San Francisco who you say you hate. They don’t want to have to invest in our public or even our private high schools, so that Americans can compete with the most talented Europeans. They don’t want to have to hire you or your kids because they know they can get better educated, more talented people who look better in suits from outside our borders. Donald Trump will REPLACE YOU. So, please tell us, MAGAs. Why is it exactly do you think that Trump is so keen to get more talent from all the places in Europe that you hate most? Why are you so eager to help him save all of the poor ultra-capitalist “refugees” suffering under the Scandinavian yoke of the best school systems and job training programs on the planet? You’re getting punked, middle America. Trump doesn’t work for you, MAGA. He never has. He works for the wealthy big business suits who laughed in your faces when he gave them their tax cuts last time around and you’re still paying for them at the grocery store. Get over it, MAGA. He’s just not into you. Have some dignity. Get smart. You may not, but your kids deserve better.
