“The claim is that recruiting is up, but there is also dread that the gung-ho types that ICE and the Border Patrol are bringing in have a propensity towards confrontation and even violence.”

No fucking kidding. Half the right already believes we're in an active civil war. With how Trump has been throwing ICE around, who do you think is volunteering? This is going to get a lot worse. We have 10 months to go before even midterms, and he's already threatened to cancel that election.
