Published | Video Starts at 06:27

I think you have to draw a distinction with what is going on at the border and enforcing border security and making sure fentanyl isn't coming through our southern border. But also the smuggling of migrants, that wasn't working. But Rounding up people in their communities and mass deportation and ICE agents showing up masked at schools. I've been trying to help out a kid that's in detention. He was 14 years old. He lives in Chandler, Arizona, and he was picked up going to school. (06:27–06:38)
