    First Post's Aninda Dey on whether Casey DeSantis regrets that Ron
    was unable to secure funding from the likes of Miriam Adelson, Robert
    Bigelow, Walter Buckley, Betsy DeVos, Ken Griffin, Julia Koch, Bernie
    Marcus, Lachlan Murdoch, Thomas Peterffy, Bruce Rauner, Chris Reyes,
    David Sacks and Steve Wynn to run ads on Murdoch's FoxNews.COM with
    the likes Mike Emmons lamenting that Donald Trump failed to convert
    the Cheap Labor Lobby's H-1B scab worker import quota lottery into
    a wage ranked queue: <URL:https://www.firstpost.com/opinion/trump-2-0-how-it-may-impact-india-us-relations-13658412.html>
    | Trump, who pledged to protect American jobs and rallied against
    | immigration, banned foreign workers, especially H1-B visa holders,
    | in June 2020 following the pandemic-induced national lockdown.
    | Aiming to create jobs for Americans affected economically, he
    | extended the ban till March 31, 2021, despite resistance from tech
    | giants like Google.
    |
    | It will not be surprising if Trump reimposes the restrictions. The
    | denial rate for new H1-B applications jumped to 24 per cent in FY
    | 2018 and 21 per cent in FY 2019. Considering his rhetoric against
    | immigration, Indian H1-B aspirants could face a tough time.

    Does Susie Wiles recommend that Trump deploy Narendra Modi as
    surrogate for National Question in the campaign against Joe Biden
    and Kamala Harris?
