That same man in the bar, he said he really likes what Trump's doing at the border, and he likes that policy.
But when I asked him about what he thought of Roberto, he said he thought Roberto should have the opportunity to pursue legal citizenship.
So do you disagree with what happened to Roberto?
It's interesting to see these really conflicting beliefs on display.
People are not pro or con on this issue.
They're mostly mixed, which is another thing that makes this story so interesting.
You know, what really struck me is, you know, 14 of these community members, which is a pretty significant percentage of the town's population, drove...
seven hours one way to Roberto's initial hearing, and that hearing only lasted eight minutes.
And then I just watched them as they huddled after the hearing.
They hugged each other.
And then they got back in their cars and drove home.
Does that feel like what you saw?
You know, it's interesting.
