President Trump said he would greenlight 600,000 Chinese students as part of efforts to improve relations with Beijing. Trump called the relationship "very important" and said "We're going to get along good with China." Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick defended the move, arguing without those students the bottom 15% of universities and colleges would go out of business. Fox News host Laura Ingraham questioned whether allowing 600,000 students from China put America first. MAGA figures including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Steve Bannon, and Christopher Rufo sharply criticized the decision, calling for restrictions, exit visas, or reductions in Chinese visas. The episode revealed deep MAGA sensitivity on China, jobs, and higher education.
