Trump vows to ‘win’ Newyork
During his speech at Madison Square Garden, the Republican hopeful declared that New York "captures the spirit, energy, and potential of America." He urged the crowd to show their support, saying, "Winning New York would be an incredible honor; it hasn’t happened in decades!" According to the Post.
Trump also made light of his legal troubles, quipping that he’s under investigation more often than "the late Al Capone." He added a light note about his father watching over him, asking, "What on earth happened to my son?" His comments about his mother in heaven and his dad had the audience laughing along with him.
"On Day One, I will launch the largest deportation program in American history to get the criminals out. I will rescue every city and town that has been invaded and conquered, and we will put these vicious criminals in jail," he vowed talking about his regular claims to fight immigration after calling America the ‘garbage can’ of the world.
Launching yet another scathing attack against Kamala Harris he declared, "Kamala Harris is a trainwreck who has destroyed everything in her path. To make her president would be a gamble with the lives of millions and millions of people. She would get us into World War III.”
MAGA comedian's ‘racist' attacks
While everything seemed to be going smoothly and in Trump's favor, comedian Tony Hinchcliffe made some rallygoers leave the venue early while also sparking social media fury with his ‘racist’ and ‘lewd’ comments. Speaking to a packed audience, he made comments targeting Latinos and Puerto Rico, branding the Republican Party as the "party with a good sense of humor."
“It’s wild and these Latinos love making babies too, just know that — they don’t do that. They come inside, just like they did to our country," he remarked after making a light of welcoming them with open hearts.
The backlash intensified with his remarks about Puerto Rico. “There’s a lot going on. There’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico.”
Additionally, he compared the Democratic Party to “a Diddy party” during his speech.
Melania Trump makes rare Trump rally appearance
In a surprising turn, the former first lady, who has mostly stayed out of the campaign spotlight, made a grand appearance at the packed Madison Square Garden rally which reached its full capacity for the night. Ditching her usual stoned-faced expression, Melania, who is soon to release her book, showed full support for her husband before standing alongside him as they listened to music.
The rally kicked off with a mix of Trump-themed elements, featuring a clip from the classic film "Patton," a painting of the American flag, the Empire State Building while “God Bless America” echoed through the venue, and a comedic performance by Tony Hinchcliffe.
“Hello, Madison Square Garden!” Melania began, calling New York “the ultimate hub of industry where leaders in finance, fashion, and entertainment come together.” Acknowledging the city's challenges, she talked about how “our lives are complicated, even during the best of times.” “And sadly, today, a declining quality of life, coupled with economic instability, makes it difficult for businesses and American ingenuity to blossom among determined citizens who race across city streets and between offices, striving for success.”According to the Independent.
