Key events
Donald Trump wrapped up his speech in Wisconsin just before 5 p.m. ET.
His remarks mostly revolved around his proposed border policies and an anti-immigrant framing of the country.
The mother of Rachel Morin, a 37-year-old Maryland mother of five who was killed last year, took the stage briefly in Prairie du Chien.
After Rachelâs death, a native of El Salvador was arrested. Trump has used this case to support his remarks against immigrants from Central America living in the US.
âI do want to say vote for Trump, though, because I really believe that heâs going to close our borders,â said Patty Morin, Rachelâs mother.
In his speech, Donald Trump shifted briefly from immigration to the economy.
âYour towns, your cities, your country, is being destroyed,â Trump said. âThis is bigger than inflation, which is killing you all, caused by Biden and Harris with their stupid energy policy.â
He shifted again to making anti-immigrant remarks.
âThe only things that donât get obsolete are the wheel and the wall,â he said about the barrier he started to build on the border during his presidency, which increased migrant deaths and devastating injuries.
Donald Trump referred to Kamala Harrisâs immigrant-focused speech last night in Arizona as âBSâ.
Fox News broadcasted her remarks, and Trump said âthey shouldnât be allowed to put it onâ.
âEverything she said is a lie,â the former president said.
‘She’s never going to do anything for the border’: Trump attacks Harris
A video intending to attack Kamala Harris was shown in the middle of Donald Trumpâs remarks.
The video was a compilation of Harrisâs comments about immigration policy.
âShe is a disaster, and sheâs not going to ever do anything for the border,â he said after the video. âSheâs incompetent and a bad person.â
âSheâs a Marxist,â he added.
Donald Trump struggled to pronounce âPrairie du Chienâ, the name of the town where heâs delivering his remarks.
âYou could have given me a little easier name than that, but I think we got it right,â Trump said.
He continued to make anti-immigrant and racist comments half an hour into his speech.
Trump continues anti-immigrant rhetoric in Wisconsin
Donald Trump wrongfully claimed that immigrants in the US are violent criminals, referring to them as âstone-cold killersâ.
âThereâs no greater act of disloyalty than to extinguish the sovereignty of your own nation right through your border, no matter what lies she tells,â Trump said.
âKamala Harris can never be forgiven for her erasing our border, and she must never be allowed to become president of the United States and Wisconsin,â he added.
Donald Trump said Kamala Harrisâs border policies should disqualify her from ever becoming president and urged voters in Wisconsin not to support her.
âKamala is mentally impaired,â Trump said. âJoe Biden became mentally impaired. Kamala was born that way.â
Donald Trump claims that more than 40,000 people were outside, unable to get into the building because the room was at capacity.
He then turned to criticize Kamala Harris for her role in border policies, claiming that her actions have led to widespread chaos, suffering, and a lack of national security.
âI watched this show that she put on, four years of the most incompetent border anywhere in the world, in history,â Trump said.
