Neither political party in the US has this as part of their platform. I'm not sure whether or not anyone here is implying that they do, which is why I keep asking, to try to figure that out.

I have no idea whether the Times of India is an acceptable source or not, but here is a quote from them on what happened last time.

"Immigration attorney Kripa Upadhyay told TOI, “During the last Trump administration, there was significant disruption due to the introduction of ‘extreme vetting’ for visa interviews. Certain job categories, such as ‘Computer Occupations, All Other,’ may no longer be an option, as they may require applicants to demonstrate specific technical skills and knowledge.”"

So, likely more tightly vetted candidates who are paid more under Trump 47 but not necessarily fewer.


The quip here seems to be about outsourcing, not about visa interviews?


I think Trump's first term pretty clearly showed that he is in favor of reducing immigration across the board.


This is not talking about immigration, it is talking about outsourcing.
