The US presidential election in November will be the “most important date” in history, according to remarks made by Donald Trump on Saturday at an Ohio rally.
Vandalia, USA:
At a rally in Ohio on Saturday, Donald Trump declared that the US presidential election in November will be the “most important date” in history, presenting his presidential campaign as a national turning point.
Bloodbath:
The former president also warned of a “bloodbath” if he is not elected, though it was unclear to what extent, as the assertion came amid remarks about risks to the US car sector, only days after clinching his place as the presumed Republican nominee.
The 77-year-old reiterated well-worn allegations that his opponent, President Joe Biden, is the “worst” president, telling rally attendees in Vandalia, Ohio, “The date remember this, November 5, I believe it’s going to be the most important date in the history of our country.”
He quipped, “They’re not going to be able to sell those cars if I get elected,” mocking reports that China was planning to assemble automobiles in Mexico and sell them to Americans.
“To put it mildly, it will be a slaughter for the entire nation if I am not elected. That much is certain. It won’t even come close to that. However, they won’t sell those vehicles.”
Biden’s Team Statement:
Biden’s team stated after Trump’s remark went viral on social media, labelling the Republican a “loser” at the polls in 2020 who then “doubles down on his threats of political violence.”
Referring to the deadly assault on the US Capitol by Trump supporters in 2021, the campaign said, “He wants another January 6 but the American people are going to give him another electoral defeat this November because they continue to reject his extremism, his affection for violence, and his thirst for revenge.”
Biden Speech At Dinner:
At a dinner in Washington later that night, Biden gave a speech during which he cautioned about “an unprecedented moment in history.”
There is an attack on freedom. The fake news surrounding the 2020 election, the scheme to rig it, and the adoption of the Jan.
The biggest threat to our democracy since the American Civil War is the 6 rebellion,” he declared.
“In 2020, they failed, but … the threat remains.”
The 81-year-old tempered his rhetoric with humour and dismissed worries that he is too elderly to serve a second term.
Regarding the presidential contest, he declared, “One candidate is too old and mentally unfit to be president.” “The other guy’s me.”
In the 2024 presidential contest, Trump and Biden each secured enough delegates earlier this month to secure their party’s nominations, virtually guaranteeing a rematch and igniting one of the longest election campaigns in US history.
