During the rally, Trump told the crowd that he was “…honored to receive the endorsement” of the entire border patrol union, the National Border Patrol Council.
“It’s a great honor,” Trump said. “They said it was unanimous. Thousands of people.”
He then invited Paul Perez, president of the National Border Patrol Council, to come on stage.

Perez said he had a message for everyone in the crowd.
“If we let border czar Harris win this election, every city, every community in this great country will go to hell,” Perez said. “The millions of inexperienced people he allowed into this country and who commit murders, rapes, robberies, thefts and all other crimes will continue to endanger our country.
“Only one man can fix this. It’s Donald J. Trump,” he continued. “He was always there for the men and women who guarded the border, who risked their lives for their country.”

The union president told the crowd they have a choice this November.
He said the chaos could continue and that criminal cartels could have border controls that would allow drugs and fentanyl into the U.S., or voters could end the chaos.
“On behalf of the 16,000 men and women represented by the National Border Patrol Council, we strongly support and endorse Donald J. Trump for President of the United States,” Perez said.
