As president Trump of the United States of America continues his onslaught against immigrants, rolling out tough policies all in a bid to discourage hard working immigrants from entering the country it’s important for him to be reminded that almost all the biggest and richest tech companies in America were founded by immigrants. He should however think of how it would have been if previous presidents had stopped the parents of this founders from entering the United States. It is worthy to note that most of these people came into the United States as poor people but today, they and their children helped built the US to what it become today. I have compiled a list of all the major tech companies whose founders are not originally from the United States but were immigrants from other countries. These companies would not have existed in the United States without immigrants. These founders have called on the US to keep it’s doors wide open to immigrants. Maybe Trump should see this list and have a rethink.


1. Amazon : Founder Jeff Bezos whose father Mike Bezos was a Cuban immigrant. Today he’s the world’s richest man.



2. Apple : Founder Steve Jobs’s biological father is Abdulfattah Jandali, grew up in Syria and studied in Lebanon before moving to U.S.



3. Google: Co-founder Sergey Brin was Born in Russia but moved to Maryland. He is already joining other immigrants to protest against Trump policy.



4. Facebook: Founder Mark Zuckerberg’s grand parents are from Poland and Germany, his wife’s parents were refugees from China and Vietnam.



5. Facebook: Co-founder Eduardo Saverin is originally from Brazil. He’s also an immigrant



6. Uber: CEO Dara Khosrowshani is an Iranian immigrant who came to the US at the age of 9. Travis Kalanick is the founder and also an immigrant



7. Tesla/SpaceX : Founder Elon Musk is an ILLEGAL immigrant born in South Africa. Tesla is the world's leading electric car manufacturer. He’s also the co-founder of PayPal and has employed thousands of Americans.

Trump is battling illegal immigrants! That's the right thing any sensible government should do.

If you want to enter America, do the right thing! Get your papers in tact! All these examples are people that properly and legally entered the US.


People want America to become like one lawless giant of Africa who's opposition can easily import bandits from Libya to kill people at will and go Scot free! Rubbish!

Fake News about Trump has reached Nairaland.

For your automatic citizenship invest billions and Trump will say "yes" moreover Trump appreciates immigrants but it must be merit based or genuine asylum seeker.

How does merit based immigration synonymous to discouraging hardworking immigrants from entering US legally? Op na was for you.

I'll soon join the list

Why is this on NL are we Americans?

Let Trump deport all these immigrants and revoke their citizenship then we'll know whats left of America...

The real owners of America are red Indians... every other person in America are immigrants...

Hence, Mr. Trump open ur doors let us enter cos ur parents were once immigrants...
