Immigration remains tops for Trump nearly a decade after his 'build the wall' campaign

“I’ll seal the border, and we’ll shut down the invasion of our country. … That’s the first thing,” Trump said Monday night in Laconia, New Hampshire, adding he’d deploy the “largest deportation program in American history. We have no choice.”
