During an appearance on Fox News Monday night, Trump administration Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick was grilled by host Laura Ingraham over the president’s recent announcement that 600,000 Chinese nationals will be allowed to attend U.S. colleges.
“With all due respect, how is allowing 600K students from the communist country of China putting America first?” Ingraham asked.

Lutnick explained that Trump’s point of view is that, “If you didn’t have those 600K students, 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, he’s taking a rational economic view, which is classic Donald Trump.”
“But, why are you helping Harvard?” Ingraham pressed. “That just helps Harvard and UCLA and UC Berkeley. Y’all helping those schools, why? They’re basically factories of anti-American propaganda, 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 600K spots that American kids won’t get.”
Changing the subject slightly, Lutnick said he’s involved in “changing the H1B program” because it’s “terrible,” with Ingraham calling it “a scam.”
Trump accepting more than half a million Chinese students is being criticized by many in the MAGA movement.
