‘ICE Is Doing What I Campaigned On’ Trump Tells Reporter Asking About Absolute Immunity [WATCH]

President Donald Trump addressed questions from reporters regarding Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers and the concept of “absolute immunity” following an incident in Minneapolis involving an ICE officer and Renee Good, responding at length about law enforcement, immigration policy, and his administration’s priorities.

One reporter questioned Trump directly about his administration’s stance.

“On Minneapolis, your administration has advocated for absolute immunity for the ICE officer who shot Renee Good. How do you define absolute immunity? What does that mean?” the reporter asked.

Trump responded by referencing the incident and his view of what occurred.

“Everyone’s seen it. And a woman who’s very violent, she’s a very radical person, very sad. What happened? Her friend was very radical. You know, go and drive…” Trump said.

The reporter pressed Trump to define the term more clearly.

“Absolute immunity. How would you define that?” the reporter asked.

Trump said the meaning of immunity is already widely understood and emphasized respect for law enforcement.

“Well, I’m going to let the people define it. But immunity, you know what immunity, what notices, means as well as I do. Treating law enforcement that way, whether it’s ICE or Border Patrol or a police and men and women. You can’t, you can’t do that. We have. You know, the law enforcement our country is doing really well, despite the fact that Sleepy Joe Biden allowed people to pour through an open border. Crime stats just came out. We have the best crime stats on record, despite all the criminals he allowed into our country, we’ve gotten a lot of them out. We have to respect our law enforcement. At a very minimum, that woman was very, very disrespectful to law enforcement, and you heard the same noises, you saw the same crunch that I saw. You can’t do that with law enforcement, whether it’s police or ICE or Border Patrol or anybody else,” Trump said.

A second reporter followed up, asking Trump to clarify his position.

“When it comes to ICE , Mister President, well, just to clarify on the absolute immunity, do you believe ICE officers should have absolutely immunity?” the reporter asked.

Trump responded by describing what he said ICE officers face daily and why he believes they should be supported.

“Generally speaking, I mean, these people have been harassed and threatened every day. They had bands out playing so they couldn’t sleep at the hotel. I see what they’re doing to them. They’re threatening them constantly, and all they’re doing is doing what I got elected on,” Trump said.

Trump then expanded on immigration under the Biden administration and contrasted it with his own record.

“We had millions of people that came into our country that are horrible people that shouldn’t be in our country. They’re murderers and drug dealers. They’re people from mental institutions and the criminally insane, their people from prisons. They were allowed to come into our country because Biden was a stupid person, and the people surrounding him very smart, very vicious, but they have no common sense, and they’re radicalized people. They’re radical left people, not radical right the radical left people,” Trump said.

Trump said ICE officers are enforcing the policies he campaigned on and credited those policies with his electoral success.

“And all they’re doing is what I campaigned on. I won in a landslide. We won all seven swing states. We won the popular vote, we won the district, we won everything. We won the counties. We won the counties by 79% I believe I campaigned on the great border, and now we have a great border, but Biden, let 25 million people come into this country, and many of those people are criminals, including 11,888 murderers, and we want them out,” Trump said.
