I think his point is that, to be blunt, the average US worker lacks education to compete – which, given the very poor grades earned in comparison with the rest of the world, makes sense to me at least.
That is something which will not change for the better no matter who is President.
None of this will change until the social justice, feminine studies, transgender activist crowds are removed from the educational system; and then the curriculum must be returned to the sort that was presented prior to the 70s or earlier; and the parents have the will to push their kids to achieve excellence as is common in China, Japan, and India.
Only then can the US achieve a workforce educated enough to compete without massive importation of H1Bs from other countries.
If there is no political will – and right now there is none – to actually fix the educational system, nothing will change, and the US will continue to fall further behind in every field except fast food …
