 CNN's Scott Jennings' stunning defense

CNN's Scott Jennings said the US needs people like Elon Musk.

CNN's political contributor and Republican strategist Scott Jennings said the country needs people like Elon Musk as he commented on the ongoing H-1B row. The controversy has divided the Republicans into two camps: One of the technocrats like Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy and the other of prominent MAGA voices like Laura Loomer, Steve Bannon, Nikki Haley. Some people are trying to bridge between them claiming that both these camps have America's best interest in mind and hence they should collaborate instead of fighting.
"Look, I think Donald Trump having a relationship with one of the greatest innovators of our time, across multiple sectors, and having that person be as invested in the United States and the success the United States as he can be, is unequivocally a good thing," Scott Jennings said.
"I'm sorry if people had their feelings hurt by that."

"This country needs people like Elon Musk to create, to innovate, to participate in our civic affairs. This is a good thing," he added.

Scott Jennings said H-1B fraud has to be eliminated

The commentator said H-1B should not be misused to recruit workers who could easily be recruited in the US. "What a lot of people in the party want to do is eliminate the fraud in this H-1B program, retain the top engineering talent - there's a way to do this," he said.
"There's always been a push and pull on this in the GOP - there's a way to work this out," Jenning said. "If you're using the H-1B program to abuse it - to recruit interns, accountants who could easily be recruited in the USA - because you want to do it cheaper? That's NOT fine."
"What a lot of people in the party want to do is eliminate the fraud in this H-1B program, retain the top engineering talent - there's a way to do this."
