Former President Donald Trump is scheduled to give a speech Sunday in Texas near the US-Mexico border as he escalates his anti-immigrant rhetoric and campaigns on hard-line immigration policy proposals.
The front-runner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination will appear alongside Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, who is expected to endorse Trump at the event. The trip is being dubbed as an official state visit, and both Trump and Abbott are expected to discuss plans for curbing illegal immigration.
Trump has been ramping up his rhetoric on the campaign trail, promising to conduct the “largest domestic deportation operation in American history” if he wins the White House next year. He has said that undocumented immigrants are “poisoning the blood of our country” in comments that echoed White supremacist rhetoric and has compared migrants who come to the US to the fictional serial killer Hannibal Lecter.
Is he going to explain why Mexico didn’t pay for his big, beautiful wall?
i cant wait for the day when were worried hes runnin for the border for a different reason
On the other hand, it could be an Idi Amin situation where he ends up living the rest of his life in the lap of luxury.
I’d rather see him in a 4x8 prison cell.
Should have sent his grandfather back to Germany.
Too late. No takesies backsies!
We say the same thing about Ted Cruz. lol
Goddammit Canada, we have enough awful politicians here. We do not need to import your garbage.
Sorry.

Two of his three wives are immigrants.
At least one violated her visa making her an illegal immigrant.
Then she had an anchor baby. Then her parents became citizens through chain migration.
All things that Trump supporters absolutely hate and want to punish harshly: they’re hollering about shooting people at the border, they’re in favor of family separation, they want to round up people and deport them - except when it’s Trump’s own family.
For Trump supporters, “law and order” always means “rules for thee and not for me.”
Jeez. I hope he doesn’t fall into the river. He might get tangled up in the razor wire conservatives put there to kill the men, women and children trying to swim across.
Show us who you are, republiQans.
Yeah. We know.
To be fair this is one of few things that didn’t change with them after Qanon.
Talk about running head first into a Wall.
Ages ago, I read a Joseph Wambaugh book about a group of cops tasked with law enforcement at the border. It made fun of people who travel to the border to step in some coyote shit and become instant border issue experts. I remember that every time some politician or Elon travels to the border to become an instant border issue expert.
Make sure he doesn’t try and flee over the border.
