Trump’s immigration policies, disillusioned Democrats and post-election organizing

As the nation braces for President-elect Trump’s second term, his early decisions suggest a tough stance on immigration and a shift in the country’s political landscape. On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Bill Nigut and Tia Mitchell examine Trump’s plans, including his campaign pledge to initiate mass deportations of undocumented immigrants. Chuck Kuck, a top immigration attorney, joins us to discuss how Trump’s early staffing choices signal a hardline approach and what that could mean for Georgia’s immigrant communities. We also talk with former Democratic Congresswoman Carolyn Bourdeaux, who recently expressed her disillusionment with the Democratic Party in an essay for the AJC. Bourdeaux shares her thoughts on how the party has lost its way and the direction she believes it needs to take to reconnect with voters. Finally, activist Hillary Holley, executive director of Care in Action, discusses how organizers are strategizing to rebuild and refocus their efforts in the wake of the election.
