Washington (CNN)Donald Trump’s colorful presidential campaign heads to the U.S.-Mexico border on Thursday, where the billionaire businessman is sure to expand on his controversial comments about immigrants.

The trip comes as Trump dominates the Republican presidential contest — both in the polls and in the headlines. He sparked a fierce debate among Republicans last month when he referred broadly to Mexican immigrants as criminals and rapists.

And on Tuesday, he escalated a verbal war with Lindsey Graham by releasing the South Carolina senator’s cell phone number.
