"Well, the president's point of view is that what would happen if you didn't have those 600,000 students is that you'd empty them from the top, all the students would go up to better schools, and the bottom 15% of universities and colleges would go out of business in America. So his view is he's taking a rational economic view, which is classic Donald Trump."
"That's just helping Harvard and UCLA, and UCal Berkeley. Y'all helping those schools. Why? They're like, you know, basically factories of anti-American propaganda, and now they're getting a big influx of cash because of the Chinese students. I mean, I know President Trump has always been very pro-Chinese student, I just don't understand it for the life of me. Those are 600,000 spots that American kids won't get."
Laura Ingraham pressed Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on President Trump's policy to allow 600,000 students from China to study in the United States. Lutnick argued that removing those students would push all applicants into higher-ranked institutions and force the bottom 15% of universities and colleges out of business, framing the decision as a rational economic choice. Ingraham countered that the policy primarily benefits elite universities such as Harvard, UCLA and UC Berkeley, brings significant funding to those schools, and reduces spots available to American students. Lutnick shifted the conversation to planned H-1B program changes and promoted the administration's Gold Card visa pathway. President Trump previously alleged many foreign students lacked basic math skills yet announced the large student intake.
