[0:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dVHOXvC5FBp1/en/trump-ice-and-immigration-a-call-for-humane-enforcement) President Trump has said that he thinks immigration hurt Republicans i- in the midterms.

[0:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dVHOXvC5FBp1/en/trump-ice-and-immigration-a-call-for-humane-enforcement?t=5) Uh, Palantir was involved i- in some of that, uh, with ICE.

[0:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dVHOXvC5FBp1/en/trump-ice-and-immigration-a-call-for-humane-enforcement?t=9) Uh, w- do you agree with him? Do you- Well, I think, I mean, I, I was really happy to hear the president be honest that, you know, his words, I believe, were something like, "Yeah, we kinda went too far."

[0:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dVHOXvC5FBp1/en/trump-ice-and-immigration-a-call-for-humane-enforcement?t=18) I have been saying in private, like, there's always a question, what do you say in public? What do you say in private?

[0:22](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dVHOXvC5FBp1/en/trump-ice-and-immigration-a-call-for-humane-enforcement?t=22) But I think anyone who's interacted me- with me in private has heard several messages.

[0:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dVHOXvC5FBp1/en/trump-ice-and-immigration-a-call-for-humane-enforcement?t=27) One, you can't explain to the American people that we deserve to be 20 times, whether you've heard this, blah, blah, blah.

[0:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dVHOXvC5FBp1/en/trump-ice-and-immigration-a-call-for-humane-enforcement?t=32) Two, there are different kinds of progressives.

[0:34](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dVHOXvC5FBp1/en/trump-ice-and-immigration-a-call-for-humane-enforcement?t=34) Three, I am, uh, someone who believes in very controlled migration, but it has to be humanely done and competently done.

[0:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dVHOXvC5FBp1/en/trump-ice-and-immigration-a-call-for-humane-enforcement?t=41) And Americans are a deeply fair people. So if you wanna do these things, and I'm glad he's saying in public now what I've been saying in private, and we will see what happens.

[0:50](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dVHOXvC5FBp1/en/trump-ice-and-immigration-a-call-for-humane-enforcement?t=50) And what have you been saying in private exactly about ICE?

[0:52](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dVHOXvC5FBp1/en/trump-ice-and-immigration-a-call-for-humane-enforcement?t=52) Well, you, you have to be super competent, and it has to be fair and explainable to the average American person.

[0:58](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dVHOXvC5FBp1/en/trump-ice-and-immigration-a-call-for-humane-enforcement?t=58) People agree with you, and people don't agree with you.

[0:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dVHOXvC5FBp1/en/trump-ice-and-immigration-a-call-for-humane-enforcement?t=59) The average American per- look, President Obama, that we supported also in that context, uh, did very well in, like, having a migration policy that people bought into.
