> [@truthSeeker2](#): > > Nothing will happen for India-US ties, only the H1B visas may get cut. The relation is balanced (no major trade deficit). The leaders have decided to take annual trade from $100bn now to $500 bn in a few years. With China, the US has a large trade deficit and Trump will mainly want to fix that. I didn’t mention H1B since that’s a given. (It would be fine if the US just enforced our laws.) But you don’t seem to get how Trump blames all our woes on you furriners. He’ll find some unemployed IT guy and say that if he forced Microsoft to move all the jobs back to Redmond we’d have zero unemployment and there would be no consequences. If you think, no if you know, that this is stupid, I invite you to reexamine your support for this turd. ---

Perhaps it is election rhetoric. For leaders across the world today, creating jobs is a top priority. Personally I think software jobs should not be touched (and would not be touched) but there is merit in bringing call center jobs back to USA as call center jobs do not even require much skill. But Indian imports (weaponry, civilian airplanes etc.) create jobs in USA, plus India IT services companies employ many US citizens as well. Trump is a business guy. Wherever there is balance in trade (such as between USA-India), I expect him to be understanding and supportive. let us see. ---

Trump is a business guy. Wherever there is balance in trade (such as between USA-India), I expect him to be understanding and supportive. let us see. If you think Trump will suddenly become a reasonable person, you are skating on thin ice - though not as thin as what we’re skating on. The Republican establishment was sure that Trump would start acting Presidential once he sewed up the nomination - see how that has turned out. Trump may be a business guy, but he is not a very good one. Know how many casinos he owns? None. He lost them all to bankruptcy. He has something like six hotels, the rest are owned by other people. He is very small potatoes in New York real estate, never getting anywhere near the top 10. He neither owned nor created The Apprentice - he was just talent. That’s why they could fire him so easily. And Mark Cuban, who is really rich, thinks Trump is desperate for cash. The Trump U scam is not something a really rich person would pull. Cuban notes that licensed properties, like the Trump name, can’t over license or they ruin the brand. Trump, with his wine, steaks, perfume and suits, is way over-licensing. His suits go for $130 - to put that in context, that seems about the price of a WalMart suit. The not really top of the line suits I buy in Macy’s cost more than twice as much. Cuban thinks that only someone desperate for money would sign those deals. Maybe that is why he refused to release his tax returns - it would prove that he was poor white trash, relatively speaking. (We know the white and the trash part already.) ---

Is there a specific person or organization that Trump is coming to talk to? ---

He is attending the reopening of a [golf resort](http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-36425368) that he bought.
