Stewart, the one-time chairman of Trump’s Virginia campaign, said that despite the fact that Clinton beat Trump by nearly five percentage points in Virginia, Republican primary voters will reward him for being Trump’s biggest cheerleader in the state.
And he figures the Trump administration will be in accord with his stance that illegal immigrants who have committed crimes be deported.
“If you’re an illegal alien in Prince William County, I’d get out,” said Stewart, who chairs the county’s board of supervisors. “It’s the very first thing I’m going to do with a friendly Trump administration. Now we’re going to find out where each and every one of these guys is, and we’re going hunt them down and we’re going to deport them.”
“It’s a game changer,” Stewart said of Trump’s win. “It just propelled me into front-runner status for governor.”
