US president Joe Biden and former president Donald Trump will both travel to the US-Mexico border on Thursday, locked in a high-stakes political duel on an issue that could ultimately decide US presidential election.
That border was crossed last year by 2.5 million undocumented migrants, an influx that has overwhelmed processing facilities and pushed social services in major American cities to the brink.
The day provides an opportunity for Biden to try to convince voters he is serious about immigration, while Trump's own trip is yet another chance to shine a spotlight on an issue that has been the central focus of his political career.
