Time magazine’s most recent edition in which President-elect Donald Trump is named Person of the Year also includes a lengthy interview with Trump in which he further outlines the early priorities of his second administration including pardoning some Jan. 6 defendants and enacting mass deportations.
Trump, who begins a second term, after getting reelected in November, suggested that the military would be used to carry out deportations of illegal migrants, according to NPR, which reviewed the transcript of the interview.
He also suggested the U.S. could get rid of some childhood vaccination requirements and undoing executive actions of his predecessor.
Trump, who was selected as the magazine’s Person of the Year for a second time, also suggested is campaign won over that of Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris because it “hit the nerve of the country” with a focus on immigration, the economy and other issues that he said resonated more with voters than Democratic messaging, also according to NPR.
“I don’t think they got the feel of the country,” he said, according to the interview transcript.
