Why not? Let the Free Market decide.

If Americans can’t compete on merit, that’s their own fault. We don’t need reverse DEI.

I thought the argument and attacks on DEI policies were about not hiring solely based on merit.

Now you’re asking for a safe space where unqualified Americans get jobs over more qualified candidates.

Because the country through policy should not act directly against the interests of its citizens. Blue collar is gone and white collar is halfway there. Why even have borders? The government is by the people FOR the people. Not AGAINST the people FOR corporate profits. The h1b is being abused against it’s original intent.

I don't think he is advocating for this but rather juxtaposing it with common right wing talking points.

Good immigration policy should serve the existing citizens of a nation.

A city's leadership shouldn't try to look after the city's interest? The answer to that is so obvious, you should look to explaining why it doesn't apply to the elected leadership of a nation.

		Why should America’s best and brightest minds have to sacrifice the quality of talent on their teams? Choosing a less qualified candidate because of where the most qualified candidate was born. How is encouraging brain drain looking out for best interests?

Having a country is now "reverse DEI". Good to know.
