Trump Just Shunned the MAGA "Massive Deportation Now" Base

President-elect Trump backed immigration visas for highly-skilled workers as the program has been in the spotlight after Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy faced backlash within the Republican leader’s base for signaling their support for the H-1B work visa, which has been criticized as too complicated and susceptible to abuse.

“I’ve always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas. That’s why we have them,” Trump said in a phone interview with The New York Post published Saturday.

“I have many H-1B visas on my properties. I’ve been a believer in H-1B. I have used it many times. It’s a great program,” he added, as reported by the Post.

I would have liked Trump to have shouted out a "F.U." to Laura Loomer, but at least it is a start.

The dispute further escalated late Friday night after Musk pledged to “go to war” over the issue in a post on X.

“The reason I’m in America along with so many critical people who built SpaceX, Tesla and hundreds of other companies that made America strong is because of H1B,” he wrote in the post.

“I will go to war on this issue the likes of which you cannot possibly comprehend,” he added.
