Trump Holds Rally at Madison Square Garden

Former President Donald Trump held a rally at Madison Square Garden, aiming to energize his base just days before the election against Democratic nominee Kamala Harris. The six-hour event featured a mix of familiar campaign rhetoric and a new tax credit proposal for caregivers, amidst a backdrop of divisive remarks from some of his supporters. Trump framed the election as a battle against a 'radical left machine' and promised to tackle issues like immigration and inflation. The rally, attended by approximately 19,000 supporters, included a lineup of notable figures, including Rudy Giuliani and Hulk Hogan, with some speakers using racist and misogynistic language. Trump's rally came at a time when Harris's campaign momentum had waned following her summer surge after replacing President Biden. Despite the rally's location in a predominantly Democratic city, it showcased Trump's ongoing influence within the Republican Party.
