The president of the United States, Donald Trump, said Monday that, if he were Tom Homan, the “Tsar of the Border” of his government, would arrested the governor of California, Gavin Newsom, for his management of the protests in Los Angeles against the migratory raids.
“If I were Tom, I would do it (…) Gavin likes advertising,” Trump said when asked by the press about an eventual arrest of the Democratic governor.
“He has done a bad job. I like Gavin Newsom; he is a good person, but he is tremendously incompetent, everyone knows it,” Trump added.

Trump also lashed out at the causes of the riots
Trump also lashed out at the causes of the riots, whom he described as “professional and insurgents”, and said that “they should be in jail.”
The White House and the Newsom government have faced in the last hours by Trump’s decision to deploy the National Guard to contain protests in Los Angeles against migratory raids, a measure rejected by local authorities.
Tom Homan, in charge of the White House immigration policy, declared Sunday in an interview that Newsom and the mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bass, could be arrested. The governor responded with a challenging: “Tom, Arrestame.”
The ‘Tsar of the Border’ clarified on Monday that there are no plans to arrest the governor, but warned that the Donald Trump administration will not tolerate anyone “hinder the application of the law.”
