Are Trump’s Immigration And Manufacturing Goals At Odds?

Are Trump’s Immigration And Manufacturing Goals At Odds?

A recent immigration raid at a Hyundai manufacturing facility in Georgia led to the detention of nearly 500 workers, most of them South Korean nationals. Lawyers for some of the immigrants say they have highly specialized skills needed to get the factory online.

This episode: political correspondent Ashley Lopez, political reporter Stephen Fowler, and senior political editor and correspondent Domenico Montanaro.
