Trump says he will announce visa restrictions Sunday or Monday

Donald Trump said on Saturday he would announce new restrictions on visas within a couple of days to block the entry of certain foreign workers and protect Americans struggling with a job market devastated by the coronavirus pandemic.

"We're going to be announcing something tomorrow or the next day on the visas," he told Fux Noise Channel.

Asked if there would be exclusions from the new restrictions, Trump said very few.

"You need them for big businesses where they have certain people that have been coming in for a long time, but very little exclusion and they're pretty tight," he said. "And we may even go very tight for a period of time."

Trump’s mission is to destroy the United States. As long as a single thing is still standing he will be relentless.

How is Florida migrant workers spreading COVID-19 if there are no migrant workers and why isn’t the produce farmers that Trump loves so much not revolting because of crops that can’t get harvested because of his “tight” border?

That'll show whomever needs showing what they need to be shown.

Back to tried and true scapegoating even if the followers are getting bored with not enough persecutions.

Americans simply are not going to work in slaughterhouses, skinning, gutting and cutting up carcasses. There will be Americans in those jobs, but they will be line supervisors or helpers, office staff or trucking staff. Americans simply won't get down into the blood and gore and stink.

Americans won't work in hot fields harvesting crops.

Americans won't work in hot kitchens unless they have advanced culinary training that comes with big pay or have no other job choice.
