‘Cities are being choked’: Trump pledges to ‘shut down the invasion’ amid US migrant crisis

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has pledged to seal the US border and “shut down the invasion” of America if re-elected in November at the presidential election. The former US president made the comments at a rally in New Hampshire ahead of state’s primary. Mr Trump is up against Nikki Haley in the race to become the official Republican presidential candidate. “We will unleash American energy like I unleashed it before,” Mr Trump said. He said he would instruct the heads of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and border patrol to begin the “largest deportation program in American history”. “Our cities are being choked – this is not sustainable,” he said.
