Legal work visas don't address the trade angle. It's unclear to me how Trump as president will affect both our global suppliers and our global customers, particularly the trade across borders.
It may end up being nothing, but to me it is an uncertainy. Businesses generally don't like uncertainty.
Plus, if we took Trump's primary bluster 100% literally (that "ban all the Muslims" talk), no one from our Malaysia plant who is Islam could visit corporate headquarters for any reason, work visa or not.
Such of course could end up being complete bluster, it probably is to be honest. Again, though, there's the uncertainty.
