You're seeing other moves by Trump that could be seen as de-escalating the situation.

They're pulling out one of their top border patrol officials, Gregory Bovino, who's really seen as a face of the crackdown, bringing in the border czar, Tom Homan.

But they still appear to be at loggerheads over a number of issues.

One of them is the extent to which local police cooperate with federal agents.

There are many cities like Minneapolis that have specific orders not to cooperate with federal immigration agents.

And that comes from a concern that if the local immigrant community sees police as sort of the enemy, then they're less likely to call in things like domestic assaults and other crimes.

There's been a fierce blowback to the administration since the shooting on Saturday.

And even a lot of Republicans are saying there needs to be a thorough investigation.

Democrats are saying they're not going to be funding the Department of Homeland Security bill this week in the Senate, which means we could be looking at a government shutdown starting next week.

So there's a few warning signs we're seeing for Trump.

One is polling.

His approval rating on immigration is the lowest it's been since he's returned to office.

Remember, this is one of his strongest issues that helped get him elected in the first place.

Then you also saw a Republican governor candidate in Minnesota drop out of the race, a guy named Chris Medell.

I cannot support the National Republican stated retribution on the citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so.

And finally, you're seeing some pushback from gun rights groups.

They're objecting to the line from the Department of Homeland Security that is blaming Alex Preddy for showing up to the protest with a gun.

They're saying that the Trump administration is on the wrong side of this.

They shouldn't be blaming him for carrying a gun, which he can do lawfully.
