Thank you President Trump!

President Trump on Friday set a cap for the U.S. to accept just 18,000 refugees this fiscal year, marking the lowest number since the modern refugee system was created nearly 40 years ago.

As his economy slides we will not need the new employees.

Those what 2 million job opening's can be filled by those who lose their manufacturing jobs.

UE has started to go in the wrong direction.

I know that the left is praying for a recession if it means defeating Trump in 2020, but that's a shame and disgrace.

And UE is fine and is not going in the wrong direction. Still at record lows. That the rate went up to 3.6% unemployment (from 3.5%) is expected given the 50,000 striking GM workers and the 20,000 seasonal Census workers whose employment ended as expected. What you should be paying attention to is the fact that the jobs numbers were much stronger than expected last month, and previous months' numbers were substantially revised upward, too: https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/...-hits-new-low/

Again, I know this pains many a leftist, but get over it

I'd be okay with that as we need to balance out the millions we've taken in over the years.

We have too many struggling Americans to be opening our doors to other poor folks (who these refugees are). Let Europe take them in since they are so up in arms about our policy.

I'll bet the cap for our allies, like Kurds, is zero.
