Former President Donald Trump held a rally in Traverse City, Michigan where he focused on boosting the auto industry and curbing immigration. The rally started late due to a delay in his plane’s departure from Austin, Texas. Trump apologized for the delay and arrived around 10 p.m. to a dwindling audience.
During the rally, Trump promised to revive the auto industry in Michigan by imposing tariffs to block imports of foreign cars. He also made baseless claims of election fraud by Democrats and urged voters to cast their ballots early.
Trump defended controversial comments made during a recent visit to Detroit, where he warned of the city’s decline if Kamala Harris becomes president. He also pledged to protect gas cars, criticizing the push towards electric vehicles.
In a divisive move, Trump blamed Harris for the rise of violent Venezuelan prison gangs in the country and accused her of neglecting Hispanic and Black jobs. He also targeted Harris’ support among Arab and Muslim communities in Michigan, claiming she is in a “free fall” with these voters.
Overall, Trump’s rally in Michigan highlighted his focus on the auto industry, immigration policies, and unsubstantiated claims of election fraud, while also targeting his political opponent Harris on a range of issues.
