Former President Donald Trump spoke at a rally in Arizona, where he painted a dark picture of the country being occupied by a “migrant invasion” and promised to “liberate” it if he is returned to the White House. He blamed Vice President Kamala Harris for the situation, calling her incompetent and unqualified to be president. Trump focused on immigration during his speech, claiming that migrants are taking jobs from Black and Hispanic workers and causing violence and terror. He also criticized President Joe Biden and his opponents in the election, calling them stupid and incompetent.
Trump’s visit to Arizona comes just a few days before Election Day, with polls showing a tight race between him and Harris in the state. The rally was attended by Trump allies who spoke about the need to combat migrant-driven violence and crime, despite studies showing migrants are not more likely to commit crimes than U.S.-born Americans. Trump’s allies also voiced support for his tough stance on immigration, including building mass deportation camps.
During the rally, Trump urged voters to support Kari Lake, a Republican U.S. Senate candidate in Arizona who is considered a Trump ally. Trump’s visit came amidst a flurry of campaign events in Arizona, with President Biden also scheduled to visit Phoenix. The rally was part of Trump’s ongoing efforts to appeal to voters, particularly young Hispanic and Black men, and to paint a picture of a nation in decline that only he can save.
