Trump hammers enemies, rallies supporters, in final planned Wisconsin campaign stop
MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Former President Donald Trump is not holding back tonight in what could be his final Wisconsin campaign stop of a bruising election season. He campaigned at the Fiserv Forum on Friday, Nov. 1.
He set his sights and supporters on several familiar enemies in a meandering speech that is tapping into more emotion than policy points.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. took the stage before him to fire up the crowd.
Then, Trump came out to a crowd that waited hours to erupt.
He fired them up by saying if he wins Wisconsin, he'll win the White House.
But, as with many of his speeches, he also fired them up by railing against several things.
Trump complained about the microphone when the volume was low, saying he'd "knock the hell out of people backstage."
He called the press "the most dishonest human beings."
But his main target was Vice President Kamala Harris, repeatedly mispronouncing her name and at various times calling her a "stupid person," "low IQ individual," and "grossly incompetent."
He also touched on inflation, saying he will fix it. Trump called illegal immigration a criminal invasion that's taking jobs away from Black Americans, and he vowed to reverse the Green New Deal, which he called the "Green New Scam."
Some people waited more than 14 hours to hear the former president.
He was delayed in arriving to Milwaukee after a rally this afternoon in Michigan, another swing state.
"Somebody said maybe, what we could do, is maybe we could just skip the last one. I said, 'there's no way I'm skipping,' and this is the best one of all. Look at this place," said Trump at the rally.
As of now, there are no more events scheduled for Donald Trump in Wisconsin before Election Day, so this could be his last pitch to the state.
However, JD Vance, his vice-presidential candidate, will hold a rally in La Crosse on Monday, Nov 4.
