00:00So Trump also talks about his success in stopping illegal immigration.
00:06The images of arrested gang members being shipped to El Salvador were shown during that Trump 100 rally last night.
00:14But really, Elliot, it has drawn criticism worldwide and also within the U.S.
00:20But why do you think it has been his greatest success so far?
00:25Well, we just celebrated the first 100 days of the Trump administration.
00:31And truly, I think for many, it has been a celebration because there was a lot of polling that showed,
00:37and I think you can see that in the loss of the Democrats in this election.
00:42The country felt that the U.S. was heading in the wrong direction under the Democrat previous administration.
00:49And one of the biggest issues was the open border and unbridled illegal immigration.
00:55So it's certainly considered a huge success that Donald Trump has been able to close the U.S. border in such a dramatic way.
01:03We're seeing illegal entry numbers down dramatically.
01:06And in fact, those images that you discussed about this trend of Aragua and other illegal immigrants
01:12that are being shipped on military planes to this high-level security prison in El Salvador,
01:19I think those images did exactly what they were intended to do,
01:23which was to stop the flow of illegal immigrants, to let the most violent criminals know
01:28that they were not going to be safe here and they might as well not come.
