Trump’s garbage truck stunt reminds voters of Puerto Rico slur while Harris also rallies in Wisconsin: Live

Donald Trump noted the lack of endorsement for the Democrats from major publications including The Washington Post and The Los Angeles Times, offering his own reason for why that was.

“Have noticed that the Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times are not endorsing anyone – you know what they’re really saying? Because they only endorse Democrats,” he said.

“They’re saying this Democrat is no good. And they think I’m doing a great job they just don’t want to say it.”

Trump also noted his recent endorsement from NASA hero Buzz Alrin, the second man on the moon, who he described as as “great astronaut.” “Isn’t that nice? So thankyou Buzz Aldrin... and I like him too, I’ve always admired him.”

At his rally in North Carolina, Trump once again reminded his supporters that he was “not Hitler.”

The former president came under fire following reports he had once made comments praising the German dictator. Comparisons were also drawn between his recent rally in New York’s Madison Square Garden, the site of a Nazi rally in 1939.

“They’ve called me Hitler,” Trump said. “Many years ago I had a father, he was a great guy, a strong guy... he always used to tell me ‘never use the word Nazi, never use the word Hitler.

“Now we’re called Nazis and I’m called Hitler, I’m not Hitler!”

Donald Trump addressed remarks made by Joe Biden in which the president appeared to refer to Trump supporters at “garbage.”

The former president said his fans were “far higher quality” than those of the Democrats.

“This week Kamala Harris has been comparing her political opponents to the evil mass murderers in history and now, on a call for her campaign last night, Joe Biden finally said what he and Kamala really think of our supporters,” he said.

“He called them garbage and they mean it... even though, without question, my supporters are far higher quality than Crooke Joe or Lyin Kamala.”

He added: “My response to Joe and Kamla is very simple: You can’t lead america if you don’t love Americans, you just cant. And you can’t be president if you hate the American people...

“They’ve treated you like garbage, the truth is they’ve treated our whole country like garbage whether they’ve meant to or not.”

Moments after Kamala Harris finished her remarks, Donald Trump began his own rally in North Carolina, in Rocky Mount.

The former president claimed that he was “very nice” to the Democrats, moments after referring to his Democratic rival as a “low-IQ individual.”

“I will bring back a thing called The American Dream, isn’t that nice? Because we hadn’t had that in a long time,” he said.

“Our country will be bigger, better, bolder, richer, safer, and strongner than ever before.”

He continued: “Kamala Harris, a low-IQ individual, is running a campaign of hate, anger and retribution. See I’m very nice to them, they’re not very nice to me.”

Harris’ plans were “the plans of a simpleton” he later added.

Trump later laughed when an audience member shouted that Harris was “an idiot” but joked “I didn’t say it... In fact, sir I’d like to admonish you that way the press can’t get me.”

Kamala Harris told supporters in North Carolina that, unlike her Republican rival, she would work with those who have conflicting views.

“Unlike Donald Trump, I don’t believe that people who disagree with me are the enemy,” she said. “He wants to put them in jail. I’ll give them a seat at the table.”

She added: “We are here together because we love our country, and when you love something you fight for it.”

At a rally in Raleigh, North Carolina, Kamala Harris repeated her promise to “turn the page” on Donald Trump.

After taking to the stage, the vice president went back over many of the points made in her “closing argument speech” in Washington DC on Tuesday night.

She added it was time to “turn the page on a decade of Donald Trump, who has been trying to keep us divided and afraid of each other.” “That is not who we are,” Harris said.

“It is time for a new chapter where we stop with the pointing fingers at each other – let us lock arms with each other... it is time for a new generation of leadership in America.”

Similar to her DC speech, she said that Trump was “obsessed with revenge” and after “unchecked power.”

Here’s Julia Musto to tell us which way the wind is blowing and what it might mean for voter turnout on Tuesday.

The US Supreme Court’s conservative majority moved on Wednesday to allow Virginia to resume its purge of voter registrations that the state says is aimed at stopping people who are not American citizens from voting.

The high court, over the dissents of its three liberal justices, granted an emergency appeal from Virginia’s Republican administration led by Governor Glenn Youngkin.

The court provided no reason for its action, which is typical in emergency appeals.

The justices acted on Virginia’s appeal after a federal judge found that the state illegally purged more than 1,600 voter registrations in the past two months.

A federal appeals court had previously allowed the judge’s order to remain in effect.

Such voting is rare in American elections, but the spectre of immigrants voting illegally has been a main part of the political messaging this year from Trump and other Republicans.
