Vice President Kamala Harris is currently targeting swing voters in a key swing state, Pennsylvania. She is campaigning in two counties today that were won by former President Donald Trump in both 2016 and 2020. This move by Harris comes as she aims to maintain the momentum following Tuesday's debate. On the other hand, Trump recently addressed reporters in California, reiterating his promise to initiate the largest deportation of migrants in the nation's history.
During his speech, Trump focused on the economy, immigration, and criticized Kamala Harris's record as a prosecutor. He attempted to draw connections between California, where the event took place, and discussions on crime and immigration. Trump was in California for two major fundraisers, one held the previous night and another scheduled for later in the day near San Francisco.
When questioned about Laura Loomer, a controversial figure, Trump expressed his lack of understanding regarding the inquiry and emphasized her support for his campaign. He described Loomer as a 'free spirit' and distanced himself from any control over her actions. Some Republicans have publicly expressed concerns about Trump's association with Loomer and its potential impact on the upcoming elections.
Trump also addressed the situation in Springfield, Ohio, mentioning the Haitian immigrant population and the alleged threats to schools in the area. Despite the city of Springfield denying the validity of these claims, Trump reiterated his stance on the presence of Haitian migrants and the perceived impact on the local community.
He emphasized the immigration crisis in America and disregarded questions about the debunked claims. Notably, the Haitian migrants in Springfield are legally residing in the town under Temporary Protected Status (TPS).
