Why is he making a U-turn now, no more mass deportation.

Donald trump is unstable, he will say something today and contradicts himself tomorrow, maybe the fear of losing election is setting in

Don't mind him. He's actually going to do otherwise, if re-elected. He knew his harsh immigration policy contributed to his election loss, as if his parents too weren't beneficiary of it

As usual most people here are responding like dullards. This is a master stroke. He is encouraging the best brains to become Us citizens, stay back in the US and make the US even greater. He is talking about University graduates. Imagine the best brains all over the world becoming US citizens!

When I tell una say Trump na Baba, una no go hear!

The man is way smarter than that dullard Joe Biden!
This one is in Nigeria foaming from his mouth. Is it now he realizes that the best brains should come to America? Somebody is making political promise because he needs vote more than ever . If he wins he will now make getting student visa almost impossible...dey there.

Personally, I don’t fancy him either.

But let us speak the truth about him. He has always been against ILLEGAL IMIGRATION. ILEGAL. Not the legal kind. ILLEGAL.

Students are Legal in the US. They have legal status/right to temporary stay to study and complete their programs. After studying is where the problem is.

Anyway from this move, he is trying to appeal to the pro Imigration liberal/left wing. However, I do not personally see it as a smart move. The students themselves cannot vote. Only their relatives who are legal and qualified to vote in the US can vote for him on this ground. Additionally, Joe Biden can easily do the same and even more. This will not give him the much edge that he seeks.

Additionally, this will only imply that only those who can contribute significantly to the US economy and who have been integrated into the system for 3-6 years have the opportunity for the green card. Many people (including Nigerians) will seriously seek admission into 3-4 years courses in the US if he becomes president. A course that will end before the next election of 2028.
He is too daft to understand this

It is what is called a dog whistle, you are not supposed to hear the silent part. And the silent part is, if you aren't "white" you aren't wanted, illegal or legal.

To an average gullible reader, who can’t read between the lines- “he just changed tone” but for discerning readers- “Trump still put America first by offering green-card to the best non-American students brains.

Most likely he could have gone far if he didn't lose back then despite criticism from some quarters.

I visit America all the time, I just came back sef. They're not praying he comes back. Only some traditional whites are rooting for him . Biden said he's considering giving anyone who has married American citizens and had lived for 10 years with them a green card. I know Biden can do this but trump, he can't be trusted.

Well, the “Dog Whistle” might be true.

However, when we take the foreign student population and break them into major races, Africans Students still have some chance. Of course we know that admissions to US colleges are typically skewed against African Students (Nigerians especially) and in favour of Asians and Europeans. So in this regard the “Dog Whistle” applies.

Personally, he won’t fool me with this. While I am conservative, I would have voted for some other Democrat over Trump. But definitely not Biden. We await the sentencing for his cases in court and see how these will affect his race. Personally with Joe Biden’s son battling with the courts and Biden mentioning his desire not to interfere, I feel they are cooking something for Trump and Biden will be like “don’t look at me! I didn’t even interfere in my own Son’s trial”!

Your thoughts if you have the time.

He said those without legal documentation will be deported. Those who graduated from schools will be retained.

Isn't that brilliant?

There's different between undocumented immigrants and losing potential with brains and ideas who studied at MIT etc, the need green card to stay and be part of the team who will further build on the existing ideas of America not undocumented immigrants.

He's not u-turning from his previous comments

That's a win for America. Give skilled hands chance to be productive and boost GDP instead of just about any hands from Mexico.

Deportation may be for illegal immigrants

But students are not illegal, moreover if they graduate and work in the Dtates, they'll contribute to the economy
