President Trump said in an interview with Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo, which will air on Sunday Morning Futures tomorrow, that if ICE was abolished, “you’re going to have a country that you’re going to be afraid to walk out of your house.“

"Well I hope they keep thinking about it. Because they’re going to get beaten so badly. You know ICE, these are the guys that go in and take MS-13, and they take them out.  Because they're much tougher than MS-13, like by a factor of 10. And these are the ones – you get rid of ICE you’re going to have a country that you’re going to be afraid to walk out of your house. I love that issue if they’re going to actually do that."
