ICE needed to get out of Minnesota because it "looked bad on TV."
A city terrorized with Gestapo like thugs all because Trump needed a scapegoat enemy to score political points with his hateful MAGA base, as opposed to a real immigration crisis, and Renee Good and Alex Pretti were murdered in cold blood, but "It looked bad on TV."
Not a place hot enough in hell for the Malignant Narcissist!

He enjoys the show of brutality and excessive force right up to the point it effects his polling numbers.

Instead he got dead white people that he thinks looks bad on TV. Trump at his heart is a racist stupid asshole that thinks this is reality TV show. It's all about the ratings, I.E. his polls. He has to be the greatest.
