It's quite astonishing to see the US actively reject the people and the talent that other countries would be taking with open arms. Indian and Chinese immigrants in particular in tech constitute a large part of the workforce and the former increasingly in leadership too.

With the rapidly developing national sectors in India and China and the increasing racism and deteriorating condition this could very well the point at which many people consider to actually go home. What could have been decades of comfortable technological lead for the US may evaporate within a decade or two if human talent is rejected like this. Crazy to see a nation do this to itself honestly.

Trump has no use for smart or brown skinned people, neither group would ever vote for him.
What do you mean exactly by "brown" people? Who do you include in that category?
Anyone who is non-white, I assume.
Asians voted Hilary 65-27: http://2016.elections.cnn.com/election/2016/results/exit-pol.... Latinos were 66-28. Lots of brown skinned people voted for Trump.
