Summary

Donald Trump faced backlash from his MAGA base after siding with Elon Musk’s defense of immigration visas, like H1Bs, used by businesses to hire foreign talent.

Many Trump supporters criticized this stance as contradictory to his “America First” promises, arguing H1Bs harm American workers by displacing them with cheaper labor.

Trump released his position through a conservative outlet, avoiding direct posts on the issue, but his Truth Social account was flooded with complaints from long-time supporters.

The controversy highlights growing divisions within the MAGA movement over immigration and corporate priorities.

      I saw a video of a journalist covering this. While she kept it together, she clearly was having to hold back laughter or at least a smirk at all this.
