Let’s let prisoners out and deport a doctor! A hero!
Preach!!!
This country has gotten so low, so dirty, so pathetic. To deny someone a green card who is currently saving American lives. Incredible.
@Janine Singh its propaganda since ALL MOTHERFUCKING GREEN CARDS ARE SUSPENDED TO REDUCE TRAVEL. we got enough doctors here to handle sh8t
@mrmyloc Doesn’t take much effort to reply to a moron.
@Icabod Crane You’re projecting again, you sleepyhead. You probably haven’t left mom’s basement in a week. And where did I say I was trying to change the world? Whacking down the cockroaches every day (that’s you) is work in itself.
She should go to Canada and offer her services to the Canadians. Forget US if they have no respect for you.
She has a love here
It will take her 10 years to get PR
Too bad, quit breaking the law!
@bahhaziz …she probably doesnt know that Canadian guys are a lot better in any discipline.
@m b hahahaha omg you just made my evening.
Interestingly, someone was given an Einstein green card for her outstanding talent? No contributions to society.
HOOKERS first over doctors turd tRumpie believes in hookers.
Is US green card really worth it in the first place, doc ? After having seen so many morons out on the street these days. lol
How does this help our country? She’s a doctor and helping people. Give her a stupid Green Card!
@twopliesman Wish we could!
@Nothing At all Sure he does. The moment Biden says “You too” against Trump or “Me too” to take something from Trump, Biden’s sleepy talk will be a relief from drug pusher Drumpf. Call him what he is – a lowly german. So, there’s no chance against a real American! That’s Biden’s new pitch!
@Nothing At all Typical dumbass trumptard comment. Your nothing more than sheep singing the same old tune.
They don’t deserve you is all I can say
This is just messed up. She is Canadian and loves America. She is essential because she is a Doctor treating Covid-19 patients. Yet, the Trump administration don’t allow her to stay here.
Jordan omg you’re so pathetic dude you watch CNN you can’t talk about “facts” lmao.
mrbobbilly, let’s hope she goes back to Canada to get away from idiots like you.
@mrbobbilly Full? You just opened up 70,000 places.
She loves usa. I wonder what for??
Glock Coley Libs are idiots ? I don’t remember libs believing that Mexico will pay for the wall. Yup I chump heads seem to enjoy projecting so much while being so sad.
Wow, this just shows how USA immigration/ government truly feels about Canadians. Any other country would grant her permanent residency and then citizenship if she wanted it.
But we’re in a pandemic I was denied a green card for Canada I understand
As a Canadian I appreciate and welcome you with open arms … well open arms at a distance
Haha!
She’s done more for this country than the ones denying her access to a green card.
Americans should just get bent. Oh wait – they already are hahahahaha.
Keeping on making America great!! Melania got the highest status though. Melania has so many unique skills needed in our country.
Send her to tj
Ridiculous.
My interpretation: The USA is not worthy to have her as a permanent resident
There’s a global pandemic going on you shouldn’t expect a lot of people to be getting their green cards till this is over
@Nothing At all true
@Nothing At all why not?, its unrelated. this isn’t war.
I’m a Thai medical student with a F-1 visa in NYC. Graduated from Stanford and currently at Mount Sinai for medical school + residency. Still being told to get a green card marriage (face palm)
should have picked Canada, you would have almost been given citizenship with a bonus smile after 1st 6 months of residency
@Jeffrey Witty My understanding is that one needs to be a PR or citizen to be able to study medicine and dentistry in Canada. I agree though, Natty could have come to Canada, study a science degree, stay, get a PR and then go into medical school. Even now I think she should be able to apply for Canadian PR from the states – it will be faster.
I was a medical student from Thailand, came here after the med school in Thailand to start residency in USA. Went to an ObGyn residency in NYC then got a job as an attending. My work applied a GC for me then my case was audited, which was a shock to me, so I had to start over and pay the lawyer again. I had to wait for 3 years to finally got my GC. I could be careless about the GC but I worried that I had to go back to Thailand and extend my H1B everytime which was very cumbersome and that affected my patients cause they had to reschedule to see me.
Don’t tell trump, he will send her to Mexico even though she is not Mexican.
@michelle belle and where are you getting your information from during the Obama administration my tios wife and kids were separated during the Obama administration
@Michael Vaccarelli thats because trump blames everything on Obama. Your nothing more than a sheep.
I can’t wait till trump gets re-elected I’m going to enjoy watching all you libtards cry
@Geavanne williams – Trump’s.Epic.Landslide.Reelection.Cometh
@HARRY CALLAHAN – He will win in an epic landslide. Carve that into stone.
Love when the anti-immigration people state… “If they want to be here, do it legally” … Well?
@Eagle Knight How many people gain legal residency every year?
It’s a process
Agreed. Maybe there is intelligence we don’t know….
@Diane Gamber yeah…like, maybe she’s a lesbian.
Eagle Knight
Yet his darling do-nothing wife is here.
Don’t even know if she/wife legal. Should be investigated .
dRump has many skeletons..
Meanwhile, Melania got an Einstein visa, God knows how.
Melania is very good at your night job.
@deee 327 . melinia got her green card for dating trump in 2001.
JP Sandoval I was just about to say when I saw your comment, can you imagine!!! and she didn’t even go to college/ finish who knows what the true story is, I mean I really don’t know what to say about this country anymore.
@deee 327 , she wasn’t first lady when she got it, in 2001 when she was dating tRump and known as Melania Knausse. Supposed to be top in your field. She was never a top model…as if we needed anymore of those anyway.
She’s done so much for this country, it’s insane how she can’t get a green card… I wish her the best
A country that lives to the letter of the law, loses its spirit (as in spirit of justice)
It’s not insane at all, considering the amount of Canadian doctors the USA grabs up from us- 60% last I checked- Do you know why she’s crying? because the pay in Canada here is about 1/3rd compared to that of the USA pay-scale in medicine. She, like my cousin last year (almost identical scenario, school and volunteered in USA) have been denied because Canada is historically low on doctors. Ask anyone up here who just moved from Province to Province or someone who just immigrated here, how easy it is to get a doctor, General practitioner or otherwise. Ask them- Understand young lady, the Canadian system is 100% socialist think about this next time you talk socialism (I’m assuming that you are a lefty, sorry if I’m wrong) especially while your heart goes out to a doctor from Canada who is clearly a CAPITALIST – cheers
When you’re ready, you’re welcome to Norway. We’ll put the coffee on.
Norway has extremely strict immigration laws I don’t think that’ll work out.
@AKzebraMiner For a highly qualified, lecturing, _and_ ER treatment medical doctor? No problem. One from Italy/Canada? Probably even less so. Their sponsor would be the state itself.
Canada will gladly take her back, along with all of the other doctors and nurses!
The only thing Dump and the republicans have done is opened many people’s eyes to just how crappy this country is. Dump brought it all out for all to see.
He should be called the Orange president because it looks like he has fake tan on.
