Trump, who returned to power with a massive mandate in November 5 last year elections, said he will take steps to secure the US borders.
He said in his inaugural address as the president, "All illegal entry will immediately be halted, and we will begin the process of returning millions and millions of criminal aliens back to the places from which they came."
