Arnold Schwarzenegger Was Asked About The ICE Raids, And His Answer May Surprise Some
HuffPost
The actor and former California governor emigrated from Austria to the U.S. in 1968 and became an American citizen in 1983.
Arnold Schwarzenegger reminded the more left-leaning panelists of “The View” on Tuesday that he is still very much a Republican.
Schwarzenegger, who earned the nickname “Governator” during his 2003 to 2011 tenure as the GOP governor of California, emigrated from Austria to the U.S. in 1968 and became an American citizen in 1983.
Considering his immigrant background, the show’s hosts were eager to ask him about the Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids that sparked protests in Los Angeles and across the country.
Just two minutes into Schwarzenegger’s appearance, co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin wondered how he’d handle the “ongoing crisis” in the state if he were still “governor of California right now.”
“You have to work together with local government, the state government and the federal government,” Schwarzenegger replied. “You have to work together rather than fighting each other.”
