They've gone through the system and they've fled. So we've got about 2 million people we have to deport. And it's very hard when you have 600 sanctuary city jurisdictions and you have uncooperative local authorities in blue states. And it's very expensive. And they haven't got enough authorization from Congress. And so Donald Trump is very impatient.

Because they've got half the problem solved, but that problem of letting them in, it was easier to solve than asking them to leave. And what they need to do is start the deportations in mass of violent criminals, and they're going to have to find some way, I think Pam Bondi has been working on it, to coerce these blue state renegade officials to follow state law.

There was, after we passed 187, Pete Wilson still enjoyed favorable, always did favorable popularity ratings. The courts will say, if you're here, then you're an American, basically, and you get everything. And that's not legally apt. And so, I'd mentioned that very controversial period. In 187, I was a professor at Cal State Fresno, and we had just demonstration after demonstration.

It was really, and they were burning the American flag, and some of my own students were doing it. And I ventured out there and said, do not wave the Mexican flag if you don't want to go back there, and don't burn the American flag if you want to stay here. It's incoherent. And we saw that again with those, when they shut down 101, the protesters were doing just that.
