And, you know, do you think that even those illegals that are married to US Citizens should be deported? Well, I am. I am the leading candidate for governor right now. I would ensure that we are deputizing local law enforcement and state law enforcement agents to help deport illegal aliens, to work with [the Department of Homeland Security], to work with [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] in those deportations. I would take facilities that are empty or not being used. We have lots of cells or facilities with bed spaces that, that are empty that the federal government could rent or utilize to house illegal immigrants in the deportation process. (07:22–07:34)
