As the Trump administration continues to expand the ICE detention system, concerns are growing over abuses inside immigration jails, including use of physical violence, pepper spray and electric shocks against detainees. Earlier this year, more than 70,000 people were being detained by ICE in jails across the country.

But since the interview was uploaded online, Schulz said he's gotten a peak into just how many people still support the divisive ex-president. "It was the looks on the street," Schulz said on the podcast. "It was like, you know when someone who's trying to sell you drugs, they give you this nod," he explained, implying that supporters of Trump's were silently expressing their approval of the sit-down. "That's all I've been getting for the last week."
