The Arizona Veterans Memorial Coliseum is starting to fill up with supporters for the #TrumpinAZ rally - the venue seats 14,000 and event organizers are expecting a packed house - the President is scheduled to speak in three hours

"My parents came here legally. Everybody should come in legally. Wait their turn. It's like cutting in line. Don't like it. That's why I'm here."
