‘Tomorrow you will see something. You will see executive orders that you will be very happy with. A lot, a lot. We must set our country on the right course. “By the time the sun sets tomorrow night, the invasion of our borders will have come to a halt and all illegal border violators will be on their way home one way or another,” Trump said at his rally on Sunday.
Fox News Digital exclusively reported earlier Sunday that Trump will sign more than 200 executive actions on his first day in office.
