President Donald Trump said Monday he was "very much opposed" to the immigration raid at a Hyundai electric vehicle plant in Georgia last month after an operation that saw hundreds of South Korean workers detained and sent home. Nearly 500 employees were arrested during the Sept. 4 raid at Hyundai Motor Group's facility in Ellabell, Georgia. Workers were sat on the factory floor as officers shackled their legs in scenes that caused outrage in South Korea, where the government scrambled to secure the workers' release. They were eventually flown home on a chartered flight after urgent negotiations. Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One en route to Japan, the first stop on his Asia trip, Trump said he didn't agree with how the situation at the plant was handled.
