My dad arrived in America in February 1945 on a scholarship from Chiang Kai-shek’s Nationalist government. He received his master’s degree in 1946, and a generous America allowed him to stay because Mao Zedong’s Communists were taking control of China. I am telling you this because it pains me to oppose President Trump’s call to allow 600,000 Chinese students to study here. My dad told me we must always put country first. Taking away spots for Americans is wrong, and admitting students who have been weaponized by the CCP is dangerous.
