One of my first acts to be to get all of the drug lords, all of the bad ones. We have some bad, bad people in this country that have to go out. We're going to get them out. We're going to secure the border and once the border is secured at a later date we'll have to make a determination as to the rest. But we have some bad hombres here and we're going to get them out.
