During a recent 60 Minutes interview, Trump expressed his determination to intensify immigration enforcement, claiming current deportation efforts are inadequate. He criticized liberal judges for obstructing his mass deportation agenda and defended aggressive ICE tactics.

Despite Trump's characterization of undocumented immigrants as dangerous criminals, NBC data reveals ICE has only detained 6% of those convicted of homicide and 11% of sexual assault convictions. Trump plans to replace regional ICE leadership with Border Patrol officials to accelerate deportations.

While acknowledging the economic importance of immigrant workers in agriculture and landscaping, he maintained his zero-tolerance policy: all unauthorized immigrants must be deported, regardless of their criminal history, though they could potentially return through legal channels.
