MOSINEE, WISCONSIN: Donald Trump delivered a dark speech to a rally Saturday (Sep 7) in the US swing state of Wisconsin, while Democrat Kamala Harris hunkered down in another crucial battleground, Pennsylvania, preparing for next week’s televised presidential debate.
Trump and Harris are now essentially tied in the polls, with the Republican again shrugging off a mountain of scandals that would have sunk candidates of the past.
At the rally in Mosinee, Wisconsin, the former president delivered his characteristic stream of insults, exaggerations and outright falsehoods, painting a picture of an apocalyptic America run by a leftist dictatorship – a “rogue regime”.
Under President Joe Biden and Vice President Harris, “your government imported murderers, child predators and serial rapists from all over the planet, while weaponising law enforcement to jail political opponents,” Trump told several thousand supporters at an airport in the heartland of Trump’s mostly white, conservative base.
“With your vote this election, their lying, cheating, thieving, hoaxing and plotting will come to an end”.
He denounced the string of criminal cases he faces over everything from attempting to overthrow his 2020 election loss to Biden, to dozens of felony fraud convictions in New York.
