Trump doubles down claiming racist MSG rally was a ‘love fest’; Harris to speak at Ellipse: Election 2024 live updates

Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign will advertise on the Las Vegas Sphere, becoming the first political campaign to do so.

The ads will coincide with the vice president’s visit to Nevada on Thursday, according to local outlet KLAS, one of her final campaign stops until Election Day.

The campaign hopes the imagery will reach millions of voters in Nevada and online, a spokesperson told the outlet. A video of the 90-second advertisement shared with KLAS includes Harris’ signature campaign phrase: “When we vote, we win.”

Former President Donald Trump says Kamala Harris should be “admonished” for swearing – but he has cursed in public more than 1,700 times this year alone.

Harris was caught using the S-word during a hot mic moment in Michigan over the weekend as she lamented her struggle with male voters to the state’s Governor Gretchen Whitmer.

Finishing his remarks in Mar-a-Lago, Trump called his controversial rally at New York’s Madison Square Garden on Sunday “an absolute love-fest.”

“The love in that room, it was breathtaking and you could have filled it many many time with the people that couldn’t get in,” he told supporters at a press conference on Tuesday.

“It was an absolute love-fest and it was my honor to be involved.”

The event has been heavily criticized following racist remarks by speakers including comedia Tony Hinchcliffe, who took aim at Black people, Jews, and described Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage.”

It comes as Trump still faces backlash for alleged remarks he made praising Adolf Hitler. On Sunday, some media outlets pointed out that a Nazi rally had been held at MSG in 1939.

“[The Democrats] said ‘in 1939 the Nazis used Madison Sqaure Garden’… but how terrible to say because you know they’ve used MSG many times, many people have used it but nobody has had a crowd like that,” Trump said.

Donald Trump boasted that he had not had a day off in almost two months while campaigning, as the presidential race draws to a close.

“This is a campaign that has been long and hard. I’ve been on the road or campaiging for 58 straight days, I haven’t taken a day off – I’m proud of that,” he told supporters at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday.

“And I won’t be taking one off, you can be sure I won’t be.”

The former president went on to again accuse Kamala Harris of taking several days off during her campaign, adding: “How the hell do you take off, you gotta work!”

It appears that Donald Trump is already lining up a scapegoat if he loses the election – chair of the Republican National Committee Michael Whatley.

With just one week to go before Election Day… can Kamala Harris beat Donald Trump to the White House?

Bad Bunny posted a reel to Instagram in which he made reference to a racist joke about Puerto Rico made by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe.

The rapper, who is from Puerto Rico, shared a video which celebrated the culture of his country – but captioned it “garbage.”

At Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally in New York on Sunday, Hinchcliffe’s described Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage,” prompting a fierce backlash.

Commentators pointed out that Donald Trump looked and sounded “exhuasted” during his remarks in Mar-a-Lago, to which he was over an hour late.
