| 0:00.0 | Thank you, Caroline. Steve Bannon recently said, quote, we're going to have ICE around the polls come November. Is that something that the president is considering? |
| 0:19.6 | That's not something I've ever heard the president consider. |
| 0:21.6 | So you can guarantee to the American public that ICE will not be around polling locations or voting locations in November? |
