President Donald Trump spoke of his sending "border czar" Tom Homan to Minnesota during an interview on Fox News' "Will Cain Show" on Tuesday saying, "we're going to de-escalate a little bit."

The president added of Homan, "Tom, as tough as he is, gets along" with governors and mayors, even in Democratic areas.
