PRESCOTT VALLEY, Ariz — Former President Donald Trump on Sunday proposed hiring 10,000 additional Border Patrol agents and giving them a $10,000 retention and signing bonus, after he derailed a bipartisan bill earlier this year that included funding for more border personnel.Trump made his pledge during a rally in Prescott Valley, Arizona, roughly 260 miles north of the state’s border with Mexico.
Trump at the time said he did not want to give Democrats a political victory on his key issue. At the rally, Trump contended the legislation was "a horrible bill."Trump and his allies routinely call Harris the "border czar," even though she’s never had that title. President Joe Biden did ask Harris early in his administration to study the "root causes" of migration from Central America.
