Former President Donald Trump made the false claim at his rally in the Bronx that his U.S.-Mexico border wall was nearly complete when he left office in January 2021. In reality, only a small portion of the wall had been built then. Trump also promised to carry out mass deportations if re-elected, pledged to protect police officers from prosecution, and praised Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban. The rally took place amid ongoing legal challenges for Trump, including the conclusion of a hush money trial in Manhattan and a heated pre-trial hearing in Florida regarding classified documents.
