Just Listen To The Words He Uses!

Last night on 60 Minutes they had interview with Trump. The part that caught my attention was in the interview Norah O'Donnell where she asked,
NORAH O'DONNELL: --and you succeeded on that. Illegal crossings at the Southern border are at a 55-year low. Want to ask you about this. More recently, Americans have been watching videos of ICE tackling a young mother, tear gas being used in a Chicago residential neighborhood, and the smashing of car windows. Have some of these raids gone too far?
But Trump reply was what I caught my attention...
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: No. I think they haven't gone far enough because we've been held back by the-- by the judges, by the liberal judges that were put in by Biden and by Obama. We've been held--

NORAH O'DONNELL: You're okay with those tactics?

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Yeah, because you have to get the people out. You know, you have to look at the people. Many of them are murderers. Many of them are people that were thrown outta their countries because they were, you know, criminals. Many of them are people from jails and prisons. Many of them are people from frankly mental institutions. I feel badly about that, but they're released from insane asylums. You know why? Because they're killers.
So Donald... you think a 64 year old US citizen grandmother is a terrorist? You think it is okay to throw flash-bang's into an apartment, drag people outside in their bedclothes, and tie-wrapped? Because that is what your goons are doing. In short: Trump has publicly okayed the aggressive tactics by ICE—tactics such as forceful entry, taking down individuals physically, using tear gas in residential areas, using flash-bangs, smashing vehicles, and deploying broader enforcement resources—and he believes such operations need to go further. Detaining U.S. citizens without cause. He thinks that ICE is being restrained! If this is being restrained I hate to see them when they are not!
