The e-word
Now he’s talking about eradication. Literally. Using that word.
To the great and brave men and women of ICE, do not worry or lose your spirit. You are doing a fantastic job of keeping us safe by eradicating the worst criminal elements. So brave! The radical left Dems want you out. Next it will be all police. Zero chance, It will never happen!

What sickens me about this is I fear he’s framing the issue in a way that could be successful for him.
Like it or not, only a very small percent of the public are for full open borders. The more he can frame the issue to look like that’s what he’s fighting against, the better for him. Calls to end ICE rather than reform it are going to sound to a lot of people like not enforcing immigration laws at all so effectively having open borders.
