As Donald Trump basks in his commanding victory over Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential elections, all eyes now turn to what his new administration will look like come 2025.
Reports have already mentioned that his inner circle plans to purge anyone viewed as hostile to his plan expand his power at every level of the U.S. government, and some have also claimed he will be using obscure laws, military funding, and support from various government levels to crack down on immigration, one of his priorities during the campaign trail.
On Wednesday, Trump senior adviser Jason Miller elaborated on the president-elect's initial plans on immigration during an interview on NBC's "Today" show. Miller started out by saying that Trump's first order of business after he takes office will be executive actions to "get back to drilling" and reinstate Trump-era border policies:
"All of the secure border policies that we had in place with President Trump, he can simply flip the switch and put those back in place just like they were before. They didn't need an act of Congress"
Miller echoed these thoughts during another appearance on "Good Morning America" by saying that "the previous administration didn't need any acts of Congress to go and break the border, and so all we have to do with regard to the border is put his policies back in place."
During the "Today" interview, Miller also commented on the magnitude of Trump's victory, suggesting it reflects a major change in the GOP as a whole:
"This isn't the Republican Party of old. President Trump has completely remade the Republican Party to be the party of the working class. You think about black voters, Latino voters. Think about the Arab American voters in Michigan who rallied around President Trump. His win is already starting to show how he can bring that together"
