Last time I did this through LAX (flying onwards to Toronto) it was pretty minimal. You pick up your bag, go through immigration, then on the way out of there drop your bag off with an airline agent and on it goes to your destination.

Before the latest incarnation of Trumpistan though.

It's still a pain; and what do you do if your bag and/or the inbound flight are late? Do you leave it behind or wait and risk missing the connection? And of course ~no other countries do that and nothing bad happens.

Musk should have gone after TSA et al first, he could have dismantled the entire rest of the government on the goodwill from that :)
