trump talks tough on immigration in chat with elon musk
After a number of technical hitches along the way, the much-awaited online chat finally saw the light of day on X, after all. The conversation ranged through many topics but, most of all, allowed Trump to express his views on, among other things, immigration. Here’s how it went on:
A Friendly Chat Between Two Big Names
Trump and Musk seemed so chummy during their talk. They heaped praises on each other, with Musk evenfar going so as to say that he feels Trump is the “right path” for the country. Trump himself grew elated at the support, saying it “meant a lot” to him.
Immigration Takes Center Stage
Now, with regard to immigration, Trump came all out. He vowed that he will do the “biggest deportation in the history of this country” if he becomes president again. This would align, of course, with his tough stance on immigration from his first term.
While not going into all the details, some of Trump’s past ideas include:
• Bringing back the “Remain in Mexico” policy for asylum seekers
• Revivifying a rule allowing officials to quickly return migrants to Mexico
• Adding more of the border wall
• Making it more difficult to become a US citizen by birth

Other Red-Hot Topics
It was not all about immigration. Trump and Musk discussed a whole lot of other things, including:
* Energy and climate change
* The threat of nuclear war
* Government expenditure (Musk proposed a special team to search for ways to cut costs)
* Trump’s views on his political rivals
A Bit of Drama
This conversation was starting with technical problems ab initio. This is not the first time for Musk to have trouble with a big political chat on X. Despite this delay, many people tuned in to watch.
Viewers noticed that Trump’s speech was a little unclear sometimes. According to his team, there wasn’t any problem with his speech.
What It All Means
This chat gave Trump a chance to share his ideas with Musk’s big audience on X. Much of it is treading the same ground he does at many rallies, like the hardline discussion on immigration. He didn’t provide that much in terms of new details but made it pretty clear that if he becomes president again, immigration would be massive.
