Companion article:

What the U.S. government did under Dwight D. Eisenhower was a massive military-style sweep. U.S. Border Patrol agents conducted raids to round up Mexican laborers from farms and ranches, then transported them deported deep into Mexico. Historians say the program tore families apart, violated civil rights — and at times, even turned deadly.

I was referring to the guy he wants to put in charge if he wins... the guy in the interview. Also the guy that was in charge of family separation last time Trump was in charge.

And the thing is, there were protests over this cruel policy throughout the country at the time. There was even one in my small city and a few hundred showed up. This "policy" is regarded as a horrific mistake that harmed countless families - and one that must never happen again.
