President Trump used the event to push for Bruce Blakeman in the upcoming election. Starting with Kathy Hochul, he called for voters to clean house in Albany on November 3rd. The president claimed New York has become a mess of high costs and crime.
He cited numbers from his own reports, stating that migrant criminals who have been arrested include those with convictions for thousands of assaults and robberies. Trump argued that current policies let these people loose on innocent families. He promised that if Blakeman wins, he will help stop sanctuary cities.
Mike Tyson says when Donald Trump called, he showed up. The legendary boxer will be attending the President’s rally Friday night.
