MAGA is Reeling as Trump Welcomes Chinese Students to the U.S.
. “I respect President Trump, but if he brings 500,000 Chinese students to Florida colleges, I will raise tuition on them to $1,000,000/year,” wrote Florida gubernatorial candidate James Fishback.


President Trump promised to bring 500,000 Chinese students to American universities and allow China to own U.S. farmland—leaving the MAGAverse enraged. 

“But if you don’t have those students—good students, by the way—if you don’t … if they’re good and they want to stay in America, we won’t give them a green card and things like that,” Trump rambled on to Fox News’s Sean Hannity on Friday. “Frankly, I think that it’s good that people come from other countries and they learn our culture, and many of them want to stay here. I think it’s a good thing. Not everybody agrees with me, and it doesn’t sound like a very conservative position. And I’m as conservative—I’m a conservative guy. I’m really a common sense guy, I think, more than a conservative.” 


“Actually, no, those 500,000 students are by law required to act as spies for China. This is the law in China. If removing them sinks some schools, then they deserve to sink,” MAGA influencer Robby Starbuck opined. “The only Chinese students we should invite are the top 0.001% who we should invite to defect to America. And farmland? Lol. We shouldn’t even let a Chinese company visit American farmland let alone own it. No exceptions. I give the Chinese credit, they would NEVER let Americans own their farmland. America First.”


“Trump says it’s insulting to tell China their students can’t go to our universities, imagine being an American student and receiving a rejection letter while 500,000 Chinese students get in!” former MAGA Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene wrote. “And NO it is not ok for China to buy our farmland!!! And no that’s not common sense!!!”

5. China likes to buy farmland near

sensitive military installations, like Grand Forks Air Force Base in North Dakota and Fort Bragg in North Carolina.

8. MAGAt Governors/Senators/Reps Don't Like This Stuff

Ricketts/Nebraska sponsored a bill last year that would help prevent China or any other country to buy farmland. It was called the AFIDA Improvements Act and it would "equip the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to combat foreign adversaries’ ownership of American agricultural land." Link.

Look who the sponsors are:

Senators Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), John Fetterman (D-PA), Roger Wicker (R-MS), John Cornyn (R-TX), and Katie Britt (R-AL) are original co-sponsors of this legislation in the Senate. Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE) is leading companion legislation in the House.



To say this will not go over well is putting it mildly.

BTW, I don't think this act has passed yet. It is still in committee, if I'm reading it right.
