   Socialism is for losers to All   
   Trump's DEI Garbage. MAGA explodes after

    No one Trump has appointed has any skills or knowledge in their new job.   
      
   Trump hires the stupidest, most unqualified assholes and only does it   
   because they let him blow them.   
      
      
   MAGA explodes after Trump claims Americans 'don’t have certain talents'   
      
      
    ated his MAGA supporters when he suggested immigrant workers are needed to   
   fill high-skill roles that Americans aren’t smart enough to do.   
      
   In a Monday interview with Laura Ingraham on Fox News, Trump said the U.S.   
   economy has to “bring in talent” in some cases on the H-1B specialist visa   
   program, which is popular in the tech world.   
      
   Ingraham insisted that there were “talented people” in America that   
   companies could hire, but Trump slapped aside away her claim.   
      
   “No you don’t,” he said. “You don’t have certain talents, and people have   
   to learn. You can’t take people off an unemployment line and say, ‘I’m   
   going to put you into a factory and we’re going to make missiles.’”   
      
   Trump’s remarks are a callback to similar claims billionaire and Trump ally   
   Elon Musk made earlier this year, which similarly infuriated Trump’s   
   “America First” MAGA base. Then and now, Trump’s remarks sent MAGA   
   supporters into a fury.   
      
   “This is insane — we are going to lose the mid-terms so badly,” said pro-   
   Trump Florida county commissioner Anthony Sabatini on X. “We’ve never seen   
   an administration crash [and] burn in its first year so badly — for no   
   reason other than to appease donors [and] special interests.”   
      
   “Trump broke everyone's heart with this line about the American workforce   
   and H-1B's,” said right-wing commentator Mike Cernovich in an X post that   
   helped Trump’s comments go viral.   
      
   MAGA members of the general public also voiced their shock at Trump, who   
   has built a political career on a hard line anti-immigration stance.   
      
   “Trump is wrong,” replied a commenter on X who describes himself as   
   “unwoke.”   
      
   “We have plenty of talent; what we lack are companies willing to pay a   
   competitive wage," the continued. "Corporate [executives] are lying and   
   everyone knows it.   
      
   “It’s almost like he wants to alienate us,” said another MAGA X account.   
      
   The Independent reports some in the president’s corner defended the need to   
   seek international talent, with conservative commentator Scott Jennings   
   saying in a panel discussion on CNN: “You can be America First and also   
   recognize there may be times that you can import talent from other   
   countries that makes America stronger. We’ve done that for decades.”   
      
   But still more MAGA accounts warned to “Pay attention to the a—— kissers   
   who are defending this clown.”
