Trump: ‘Go home, go to sleep, rest assured,’ we’ll build the wall

“We need safety. We need cameras, we need all of the things that we are going to be putting in, and we need the wall. And we will build the wall as sure as you are standing there tonight. We need the wall,” Trump said as the crowd broke into a “build the wall” chant during his 100th day in office rally in Harrisburg, Pa.

“We’ll build a wall, folks, don’t even worry about it. Go home, go to sleep, rest assured. That’s the final thing, we need it,” he said.

Trump’s promise to build a border wall was one of his signature campaign promises, yet he was forced this week to abandon his demand that funding be included in the spending bill passed as the clock ticked on a partial government shutdown.

“If the Democrats knew what the hell they were doing, they’d approve it so easy,” Trump said at the rally. “Because we want to stop crime in our country. Obviously they don’t mind illegals coming in, they don’t mind drugs pouring in, they don’t mind, excuse me, MS-13 coming in. We’re getting them all out of here. Members of Congress who will be voting on border security have a simple choice: They can either vote to help drug cartels and criminal aliens trying to enter the United States, like frankly the Democrats are doing, or they can vote to help American citizens and American families be safe. That’s the choice.”

The Department of Homeland Security this week opened a new government office for the victims of crimes committed by illegal immigrants, called Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement or VOICE.
