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.
Yes.
That’s his whole thing. In fact he had a book made about it. He’d sell out his family if it made him more money, and I’m not entirely sure he hasn’t.
Isn’t his former wife buried on a golf course of his for tax break purposes or some shit?
Yeah. He has an ex buried. At Mar a Lago I think
Had to look it up. Turns out I had that wrong about the tax reasons, at least:

Turns out he only pays 16.31 per year in taxes on the property already.
