    Given the rampant racism in US, I’m expecting they’ll continue to encourage them to leave actually.

      If the choice is having them help your “enemy” or subjecting them to personal trauma, which do you think they’ll choose?

        I mean this is why scientists are fleeing the US right now.

          Are they though? I haven’t seen many stories about it but would entirely expect this to be the case. Especially because many are suddenly unemployed.

              That covers some Chinese departures over a period prior to trumps policies but there are a lot more nationalities to cover and more recently I would expect the number to increase substantially. Thanks for the info though. I’m sure there’s more movement to come.

                I agree, and at the same time I imagine that the US is becoming less attractive to educated people which stems the flow of new talent into the country.
