President Trump slammed calls from Democrats to abolish U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on Wednesday and told Americans that he wanted to "abolish" the Islamic State.
In a video message released on his Twitter feed, the president attacked calls from progressive Democrats to abolish the controversial federal agency amid ICE's role in the administration's family separation debacle.

Pelosi has not actually endorsed the growing movement calling for the end to the agency, but issued a statement earlier this year calling for "an immediate and fundamental overhaul of ICE.
Other prominent Democrats including Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), have joined the effort wholeheartedly.
Trump's video message comes just days after he called for state and local officials to show their support for ICE and its agents amid Democratic calls for the agency's reform or removal.

(6,699 posts)this disgusting thug knows exactly what he is doing. The same thing as referring to HRC as "crooked Hillary"....you say it enough times, and his brain dead, humiliated, low-life followers are going to grab onto it...and repeat it over and over and over again with him.
This pig of a human knows exactly what he is doing. Adolf Hitler gave him footsteps to follow. His rally last night was appalling, but these brainless turd for brains in his fan KKKlub will lap up whatever shit he lays on the floor for them. HRC was absolutely right...."basket of deplorables"...only a hell of a lot more than we ever imagined. His whole support. If you still support this criminal thug at this time and point in history....YOU are a definite deplorable.

(6,881 posts)That's how his mind works. "ICE/ISIS. Wow! Get it? I'm so clever. The cleverest wit who ever lived." Of course, he imagines that anything that spurts from his brain is such an exquisite pearl of wisdom that he can't wait but tweet it as soon as he can. He's probably a premature ejaculator too.
