  Trump reflects in his last rally of the campaign

  Former President Donald Trump held his final rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where he also concluded his campaigns in 2016 and 2020.

  He savored the moment, stopping every few steps as he made his way to the stage, soaking in an explosion of applause. A few in the crowd waited nearly 18 hours, at times in the rain, for a rally that finally began after midnight and ended after 2 a.m.

  “It’s unbelievable,” Trump said when he started talking after standing wordless at his lectern for an extended ovation. “Think of it. This is it. This is the last one that we’ll have to do.”

  At one point, Trump asked the raucous crowd, “Are you better off now than you were four years ago?” The response was a resounding “no.”

  “November 5th, 2024 will be liberation day in America,” Trump declared.

  He spent a good deal of time addressing immigration, a key issue for his campaign along with the economy.

  Among the speakers who opened for Trump were two Muslim mayors of cities in metro Detroit with large Arab American populations. Trump is hoping to capitalize on the unrest in metro Detroit, home to the nation’s largest Arab American community that has been upset with the Biden-Harris administration’s handling of the Israel-Hamas war.
