Trump spoke on his tough immigration policies and ticked through some of his complaints on his Democratic opponents. He also seemed to reference as he expressed amazement at two giant mechanical arms that caught Elon MuskB次元官网网址檚 reusable rocket B次元官网网址 B次元官网网址渓ike you grab your beautiful baby.B次元官网网址

The late stages of the 2016 campaign saw the surfacing of the B次元官网网址淎ccess HollywoodB次元官网网址 tape, in which Trump bragged about grabbing women by their genitals.

Trump has two stops planned later in Pennsylvania, with events in Reading and Pittsburgh, both areas Harris is also visiting. The Republican nominee and former president ends his campaign the way he ended the first two, with a late-night event in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

There were plenty of empty seats at the J.S. Dorton Arena, a 5,000-seat venue with additional seating on the floor in the Raleigh arena where Trump kicked off his campaign day.

A Trump victory would make him the first incoming president to have been indicted and convicted of a felony, after his . He will gain the power to end other federal investigations pending against him. Trump would also become only the second president in history to win non-consecutive White House terms, after Grover Cleveland .

Harris is vying to become the first woman, first Black woman and first person of South Asian descent to reach the Oval Office B次元官网网址 four years after she broke the same barriers in national office by becoming President Joe BidenB次元官网网址檚 second in command.

The vice president ascended to the top of the Democratic ticket after BidenB次元官网网址檚 disastrous performance in a June debate set into motion his B次元官网网址 one of a series of convulsions that have hit this yearB次元官网网址檚 campaign.

Trump survived by millimeters a would-be assassinB次元官网网址檚 bullet at a . His Secret Service detail , when a gunman had set up a rifle as Trump golfed at one of his courses in Florida.

Harris, 60, has played down the historic nature of her candidacy, which materialized only after the 81-year-old president ended his reelection bid following his June debate against the 78-year-old Trump accentuated questions about BidenB次元官网网址檚 age.

Instead, Harris has pitched herself as a generational change, emphasized her support for abortion rights after the Supreme CourtB次元官网网址檚 2022 decision ending the constitutional right to abortion services, and regularly noted the former presidentB次元官网网址檚 role in the .

Assembling a coalition ranging from progressives such as Rep. of New York to Republican former Vice President , Harris has called Trump a threat to democracy and late in the campaign even embraced the critique that Trump is accurately described as a B次元官网网址 .B次元官网网址

Heading into Monday, Harris has mostly stopped mentioning Trump.

In Allentown, home to tens of thousands of Puerto Ricans, Harris will hold a rally with rapper Fat Joe before visiting a Puerto Rican restaurant in Reading with Ocasio-Cortez.

The stops come after a comic at a suggested that Puerto Rico was a B次元官网网址渇loating island of garbage.B次元官网网址

Trump, renewing his B次元官网网址淢ake America Great AgainB次元官网网址 and B次元官网网址淎merica FirstB次元官网网址 slogans, has made immigration and withering criticism of Harris and Biden the anchors of his argument for a second administration. HeB次元官网网址檚 hammered Democrats for an inflationary economy and pledged to lead an economic B次元官网网址済olden age,B次元官网网址 end international conflicts and seal the U.S. southern border.

But Trump also has veered often into grievances over being prosecuted after trying to overturn BidenB次元官网网址檚 victory and repeatedly denigrated the country he wants to lead again as a B次元官网网址渇ailed nation.B次元官网网址

As recently as Sunday, he renewed , mused about violence against journalists and said he B次元官网网址 B次元官网网址 dark turns that have overshadowed another anchor of his closing argument: B次元官网网址淜amala broke it. I will fix it.B次元官网网址

The election is likely to be decided across seven states. Trump won Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin in 2016 only to see them flip to Biden in 2020. North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona and Nevada add the Sun Belt swath of the presidential battleground map.

Still, Harris aides have insisted she remains the underdog.

TrumpB次元官网网址檚 campaign says itB次元官网网址檚 feeling confident as well, arguing that the former presidentB次元官网网址檚 populist appeal will attract younger and working-class voters across racial and ethnic lines. The idea is that Trump can amass an atypical Republican coalition, even as other traditional GOP blocks B次元官网网址 notably college-educated voters B次元官网网址 become more Democratic.
