Lol conservatives circle racist logic. White people are genetically superior, but are also oppressed. White people are the smartest, but Asians are the best at math and computers. White people are the strongest, but black people just are naturally gifted at sports. White people are the reason we have great things like the engine, but Jews control everything. White people are just harder workers, but Hispanic people need to be the ones doing the hard jobs. Make it make sense Republicans.

Don't drag Rocko into this, he doesn't deserve that.
Fun fact, that show is now 32 years old, and the final season aired 29 years ago. TIL Netflix made a Rocko's Modern Life special in 2019.
We won't educate our own students, and build America's own brain trust, but we'll double the number of Chinese students whose government pays to educate them in America, in order to make them more competitive with us.
We are training our own competition, and hamstringing our own defense.
Make America Ignorant Again.
I mean, we won't educate the Chinese exchange students either. The US education system is increasingly diploma mills and sinecures for friends of public officials.
Trump's doing the "$5M Visa" gambit. He thinks he can announce "We're going to invite so many students! The best students!" and then slide in a mechanism for channeling kickback into his pocket. But no sane student is going to take him up on this deal. And no quality school is going to want students coming through such a program.
If someone were actually trying to weaken the US in favour of Russia and/or China I truly can't think of a better way to do it than what he's doing.
Go blame your states, for not teaching properly. Even young kids now a days are fucking glued on to their tablets… always using it for entertainment purposes.
My nephew who’s 9 visits us a lot, and he’s glued to his iPad.. even when he’s trying to pick up a chair and bring it somewhere else. It’s disgusting.
That sounds like a parent issue not so much a state issue. I guess you could argue that maybe both the kids parents are working too much and are too tired to parent… which could be considered a state issue.
Anyone know why we keep building schools instead of hiring teachers? I swear every school near me has gotten replaced but the class size is 30 to 1.
China figured out that the orange cancer is a cheap whore and paid for it...
Doubtful. This was out of a meeting with the South Korean President. Trump probably just got confused and announced the name of the wrong country.
What did they pay though? Any new gold ingots been spotted recently? Some curious real estate gifts?
But his administration is gutting education. How many students are really going to want to study here. Heck you could be deported the very next day with flip-flop trump in control
Keep winning

Head scratching. That doesn’t even align with the conservative agenda. Which university is filling Trumps pocket for him to make this decision?
this is because trump is not a conservative, he’s a capitalist. like all republicans and democrats. they will phase in an out of various agendas if it means more profit.
Hardly a capitalist. I know in practice capitalism rigs the system for the ultra rich but theoretically it's supposed to be free market. He's a perfect example of a kleptocrat.
kleptocracy is a child of capitalism in its aged state.
Don't get me wrong, Trump is 1000% a corrupt grifter who's never seen a bribe he didn't take. But I think there's more (and less) to it than that. If you look at his pattern of making decisions based on whatever he saw on Fox News most recently, it's increasingly clear that he's just fucking losing it and becoming dangerously suggestible as his dementia progresses. Any other leader with access to have a one-on-one discussion with him plays him like a damn fiddle.
Trump probably thinks more along the lines of 600,000 new workers he can abuse ala FoxConn style. A.k.a. let's import 600k workers who won't complain about shit work conditions and little pay, or even payment in company dollars that can only be used in the company store

Mao offered Kissinger 10 million Chinese women
SAToday‘s "OnDeadline" blog finds some choice morsels from newly released transcripts of Henry Kissinger’s 1973 meeting with Mao:
You know, China is a very poor country," Mao is quoted as saying during the exchange. "We don’t have much. What we have in excess is women. So if you want them we can give a few of those to you, some tens of thousands." The Chinese leader drew laughter when he returned to the proposition a few minutes later. "Do you want our Chinese women? We can give you 10 million." he said, adding: "We have too many women … They give birth to children and our children are too many."
It’s not clear whether Mao is at all serious — he was a pretty crazy dude, after all — but Kissinger’s response is precious:
It is such a novel proposition, we will have to study it.
EDIT: I'd also add that I was fairly sure that there was a second quote from some other diplomatic exchange in which someone, I thought Mao, offered 1 million Chinese people (not specifically women), with the phrasing something like "What is it that you want? Is it people? We can provide 1 million people", but I guess it's possible that I'm just misremembering some reference to the above.

Might have been me accurately remembering Kissinger mis-remembering too, since I've read some of his material on diplomacy with China, and the source material wouldn't have been declassified at the time the books were written, so I assume that he wouldn't be able to directly use it in writing his books.
I guess China has something on trump. At least they operate the same way as trump.
What makes him think 600,000 Asian students would want to come here?
Where they'll be abused, mistreated, potentially kidnapped and trafficked because some fat powertripping chud can't distinguish between Asian and South American?
The education is garbage. Expensive garbage. And getting shittier all the time.
deep sigh of asian relief as I wonder if we don't need to sell our house a a little longer
His followers will forget how they got here when he deports them a nlfew months later
Well, this is yet another unexpected change from the overly emotional child in the white house.
I'm sure he was bribed or there is some sort of fraud related to this decision.
