About this episode
In a rally at Madison Square Garden in New York, just over a week from the election, Donald Trump took to the stage with a vision for the first day of his presidency.
Trump is promising to deport more than 11 million people if he wins, making it “the largest deportation program in American history”.
Immigration has been one of the most pressing and divisive issues of the presidential race, with fears of “border chaos” and misinformation about immigrants eating pets dominating headlines.
But the facts about immigration tell a different story.
Today, investigative reporter for ProPublica Mica Rosenberg, on the real ways immigration is affecting America.
