President Donald Trump expressed support for Tom Homan to arrest Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) after the Democratic governor dared the border czar to arrest him after the Trump administration called in the National Guard to quell protests in Los Angeles.

As he returned to the White House today, Trump was asked if border czar Tom Homan should arrest California Gov. Gavin Newsom, as Newsom has dared him to do. “I would do it if I were Tom,” Trump told reporters. “I think it’s great. Gavin likes the publicity.” He added: “I like Gavin Newsom, he’s a nice guy, but he’s grossly incompetent.”

President Donald Trump 's border czar, Tom Homan, responded Monday to Democratic California Governor Gavin Newsom's dare to "arrest" him over his response to the ongoing Los Angeles Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids ( ICE) protests.
