President Trump on Monday said that some Democratic voters will defect to the Republican Party because of Democrats' growing criticism of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
"Many Democrats are deeply concerned about the fact that their “leadership” wants to denounce and abandon the great men and women of ICE, thereby declaring war on Law & Order. These people will be voting for Republicans in November and, in many cases, joining the Republican Party!"
The president has seized on calls from some Democrats, including many said to be eyeing 2020 White House bids, to abolish ICE and restart a similar agency from scratch amid heated pushback to Trump's immigration policies.
Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) have called for ICE to be eliminated, while Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) said the agency should be "critically re-examined," and possibly started anew.
Other Democrats have been less committal, saying only that they believe ICE's methods should be examined and that Trump's immigration policies should be undone.
The intense Democratic criticism of ICE comes in the wake of the Trump administration's "zero tolerance" policy, which led to the separation of thousands of migrant children from their parents.
Trump suggested in an interview aired Sunday that the issue will ultimately harm Democrats.
The official White House Twitter account earlier Monday targeted Harris and Warren over their comments about ICE, and accused them of supporting criminals.

Voters must be made to understand that a vote for any Democrat is a vote for open borders and socialism.

The man is relentless. The left is staggering around, both eyes swollen shut, waiting for someone to ring the bell.
The DIMS should tap out...losers.
There are some leftists on twitter claiming everyone tweeting #walkaway is a Russian bot. They’re insane.
You could even walk into various districts of California and find working-class Democrats aggravated over this abolishment of ICE talk. Whoever in the DNC dreamed up this hype and convinced them it was the best theme for the November election....really screwed up. I’ll go and suggest a plus-up of four additional GOP Senators onto the current count, and maybe eight to ten Houses seats flipping to the GOP.
>>There are some leftists on twitter claiming everyone tweeting #walkaway is a Russian bot. They’re insane.
Wait a minute, that’s exactly what a russian bot would say!

“You gotta be durable. Real durable. Most ain’t.”
LOL! That’s true. :D
“Trump: Democratic voters will support Republicans because of ICE criticism”
Trump is right, but it’s even worse than that: the Democrats will die a death of a thousand self-inflicted cuts, each cut driving away it’s own distinct set of disaffected voters.
There are those who will leave because of the calls for the abolition of ICE, those who will leave because of the call to negate tax reform and thereby raising their taxes, those who will leave because of calls for socialism, those who will leave because they do not want unlimited illegal immigrants entering through open borders, those who will leave because of the continued insanity of the leftist fake stream media and it’s imploding credibility, those who will leave because they’re tired of self-righteous celeb elitists, those who will leave because of the nuttiness of Dem Party fruitcakes like Maxine Waters and Tom Steyer, those who will leave because of the ugly hatred and violence of the uber left, those who will leave because of the booming economy resulting in improved personal finances, and finally those who will leave because of Trump’s appeal to the everyman ...
I saw one chick holding a sign that read “No human is illegal.” Let me guess: she is pro-choice.
“There are some leftists on twitter claiming everyone tweeting #walkaway is a Russian bot.”
i guess they’ll know for sure one way or the other come the 2018 midterms ...
The dem war on ICE is just another phase of their War on Cops. The fact that Clinton, Sanders, and most democrats were kowtowing to Black Lies Matter, condemning the police, and supporting rioters, was a big factor in Clinton’s defeat.
Yeah, I think the Russian bots are going to show up at the polling places in droves.
“the agency should be ‘critically re-examined,’ and possibly started anew.”
Funny. Some folks around here have been saying that about other agencies: FBI, DoEd, IRS, Foggy Bottom, etc.
So now the latest thing is abolish the U.S. Customs Service? Let trucks full of cargo come from Mexico and no one can inspect or even ask what they are bringing? The far left must be working with the drug cartels and the people smugglers. It wouldn’t surprise me if they have some really shady connections.
I haven’t watch that movie in ages. Maybe it is time for a refresher and a good laugh.
“Yeah, I think the Russian bots are going to show up at the polling places in droves.”
