Donald Trump will have a very busy first few days as president.
The president-elect's hand could be cramping as he plans to sign 200 executive orders on his very first day in the Oval Office.
During his pre-inauguration rally in Washington DC on Sunday evening, Trump warned migrants against continuing to cross the southern border.
He also vowed to make good on his promise to lead the largest deportation effort in American history.
'These are rough people [coming over the border] and they're leaving our country – they're gone,” Trump insisted.
He continued: “The border security measures I will outline in my inaugural address tomorrow will be the most aggressive, sweeping effort to repair our borders that the world has ever seen.”
Trump walked out to a live performance of God Bless the USA by singer Lee Greenwood during his rally at the Capital One Arena in Washington, DC.
“We won,” he declared triumphantly as he took his place on the podium.
Fox News first reported on Sunday that Trump will sign at least 200 executive orders on his first day back in power.
The actions will focus on border security, energy, lowering the cost of living and ending diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs within the federal government.

During Sunday's meeting, Trump mentioned the aggressive number of executive orders he plans to implement immediately.
“Someone said yesterday, 'Sir, don't draw so much.' [executive orders] in one day… let's do it over a period of weeks.' I said, 'We're going to do it in weeks, we're going to sign them at the beginning.'
'We have plenty to sign in the future, don't worry about that. it doesn't end.'
Sunday night's rally will be his last before he is sworn in for the second time.
And despite rain, sleet and freezing conditions, thousands of people waited outside all day for a chance to see Trump in person one more time before he became president again.
Once inside, rallygoers were dazzled by a stack of performers and speakers, including pro-MAGA musician Kid Rock, who opened the night with a small set of songs, including his 2007 hit Sweet Home Alabama, before his anti-Democratic anthem. We The People, which reads “Let's Go Brandon,” codes for “f*** Joe Biden.”
Trump's two eldest sons Don Jr. and Eric took the stage with his wife Lara with a few of their children in tow.
Eric and Lara's two young children, Carolina and Luke, wanted to recite the Pledge of Allegiance in front of the audience, which Eric says they do every night.
Don Jr. meanwhile, was joined by his eldest child Kai, 17, after becoming much more involved in the campaign this summer when she spoke at the Republican National Convention.

Billy Ray Cyrus also took the stage along with the Liberty University Choir, which paid tribute to the rally-goer killed in Butler, Pennsylvania during Trump's assassination attempt.
The Village People closed out the rally with Trump's favorite upbeat song YMCA, as the president-elect stood on stage and broke out his signature low-first pumping dance moves.
Rehearsing on stage as the audience filed in, country music and television star Billy Ray Cyrus, 63, performed his hit Old Town Road and raved to the audience about his time on Hannah Montana with his daughter Miley Cyrus.
“We're going back to 2016, how it should have been,” Cyrus said to cheers. 'That's why I keep singing Old Town Road. One more time, President Trump.”
Speakers before the program included actor Jon Voight, UFC president Dana White and former Fox News host and conservative podcaster Megyn Kelly.
Voight spoke about his “friend” and “hero” Trump as he made his rally stage debut on Sunday.

Capital One Arena in downtown Washington DC has a capacity of more than 20,000 people, but was not completely filled. About half to a third of the upper deck was empty because those waiting in line outside the arena were cut off by security.
The arena – home to the NHL Washington Capitals and NBA Washington Wizards – will also serve as a viewing location for the official inauguration on Monday after the swearing-in was moved to the Capitol Rotunda due to dangerously low temperatures.

Before the rally on Sunday afternoon, Trump, first lady Melania, JD Vance and wife Usha Vance attended a wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery in the mixture of ice and rain. Trump's eldest daughter Ivanka attended the ceremony, standing off to the side with her children, while national security adviser candidate Mike Waltz followed alongside Trump and Vance.
