“I’m sorry to say that we were right,” Ramos said.

“I’m wondering what’s next. Maybe DACA. Maybe a wall,” he added, referring to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which allows undocumented children to remain in the United States.

Trump on Friday pardoned Arpaio, who was convicted last month of criminal contempt for ignoring a court order that he halt his Maricopa County office's racial-profiling policies.
