MEDIA: Musk v. MAGA: Fight erupts over Trump skilled worker immigration plans

USA Today's Josh Meyer on whether Donald Trump will attempt to enlist
Peter Thiel's VP JD Vance to serve as Trump's Deputy Chief Sales
Critter for Trump's bi-partisan, comprehensive, merit-based,
immigration reform legislative legacy authored by the Cheap Labor
Lobby and passed by Mike Johnson's House.GOV and John Thune's
Senate.GOV and will Thiel veto Trump's effort:

| Call it a very uncivil war, a food fight or even a pig pile.
|
| An argument pitting some of President-elect Donald Trump's biggest
| supporters against each other has rocked MAGA world in recent days
| over whether his incoming administration should allow more highly
| skilled immigrant labor to come to the United States at the expense
| of American workers.
|
| What makes the beef especially awkward - or delicious, depending on
| who you ask - is that Trump's D.O.G.E. duo of tech billionaires,
| Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, are at the center of it. And the
| brawl is taking place almost entirely on Musk's X platform, the
| informal public square for Trump's whole Make America Great Again
| movement.

What will be the foreign born population in Howard Lutnick's Census.GOV
headcounts and share of the American labor market in Lori Chavez-
DeRemer's BLS.GOV surveys at the end of Trump's second term and will
Norm Braman's Marco Rubio or David McIntosh's Ron DeSantis provide the
financial back for them to seize on the hard facts on the ground for
legacy American proles?
