Former President Donald Trump made a series of controversial statements during a recent rally in Wisconsin, where he claimed that the media favors Kamala Harris and that they “hate our country.” He went on to make anti-immigrant and transphobic comments, questioning the push for open borders and sex change operations for young people. Trump also attacked his rival Kamala Harris, calling her “grossly incompetent.”
During the rally, Trump also criticized the response to Hurricane Helene in the south-eastern US, comparing it to Hurricane Katrina. He called the Biden administration “the most corrupt people” and declared that the country is in decline.
The former president expressed confidence in winning the state of Wisconsin and defeating Kamala Harris in the upcoming election. He praised his past rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where he survived an assassination attempt, and stated that the country is in “big trouble” but will be “fixed very quickly.”
With the midterm elections approaching, Trump’s rally in Wisconsin was seen as an opportunity to energize his base and push his agenda. His remarks drew both support and criticism, with some accusing him of spreading false claims and politicizing tragedies like Hurricane Helene for political gain. The event attracted attendees who lined up early to hear the former president speak, amidst heightened security measures, including bulletproof glass barriers.
