ALLENTOWN, Pa.—Exactly one week before Election Day, Republican presidential nominee and former President Donald Trump heavily emphasized border security to supporters during a campaign rally in Allentown, Pennsylvania, on Oct. 29.
Trump has made “securing the border” the principal argument of his 2024 presidential campaign, highlighting the influx of illegal immigrants into the United States, which has exceeded 8 million people since January of 2021, according to data published by U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
