That then begs the question why did 9.2 million applicants from 47 sub Saharan countries request a visa to the US in 2019?

So because many Africans believe it will be to their benefit to come here for a certain amount of time. [deleted off topic content]

That article you're talking about also stated that the Trump administration seeks to eliminate the program, the green card lottery, that allowed these applications.

The article then goes on to say that the overall applications for visas for 2021 have dropped by half because of tighter restrictions and eligibility requirements.

To me, and this is only my opinion, the uptick sounds like its more of a race against time rather than them seeing Trump as a beacon of hope for immigrants.

Because the USA is stronger economically, with better standards of living.

Seems pretty straightforward to me.

What controversial point are you supposing will follow from that? Why initiate a thread with such an obscure opening post?

The real point of the thread has, mercifully, been deleted by moderators.
