I'm a little confused by your post. Are you saying that it's ok to prefer Norweigans to Africans/Haitians because they are more educated and more advanced?
On an individual basis, no, because it is entirely possible for a specific Haitian to be a preferable immigrant to a specific Norwegian.
However, in a macro-sense, yes. I'd prefer immigrants who are more educated and more advanced. And the average Norwegian is likely to be more educated, advanced, and more easily integrated into another advanced western democracy like us than is the average Haitian.
Or are you saying that Trump didn't mean to prefer Norweigans and is being misunderstood?
Oh, I think he very likely does prefer that we get more immigrants from Norway and fewer from Haiti. I just don't see anything wrong with that because statistically, they are more likely to meet the preferred criteria I just identified.
