The ex-president Donald Trump once again attacked immigrants whom he called “violent” and proposed that they should have their own fighting league, similar to the well-known UFC, which manages the mixed martial arts championship in the United States. Looking ahead to the decisive presidential debate next Thursday, Trump had a weekend of intense campaigning where he called on evangelicals to vote en masse in November and promised to “fiercely” protect religious freedom if he is elected.
In front of a crowd in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the Republican said that he had suggested to his friend Dana White, president of the UFC, to create a competition dedicated to immigrants with which he would make a lot of money. “At the end of the year the migrant champion is going to fight your (UFC) champion and I think the migrant is going to win. That’s how hard they are“Trump said.
As in other campaign events, The Republican magnate referred to the majority of migrants as “drug traffickers, gang members and murderers”. Trump also had time to slip that Biden might use supplements to prepare for the upcoming debate, mocking the president’s mental abilities. “A little before the debate he receives a dose in the butt and that’s how they want to strengthen him,” the former president shot to the laughter of the public.
Trump also flew to Washington to participate in a meeting of the Faith and Freedom Coalition organization in which he asked for the vote of evangelicals, who played an important role in his rise to power in 2016. The former president is preparing to face Biden in the debate next Thursday, held at CNN headquarters in Atlanta, the first of the two televised face-to-face sessions that will take place between the two candidates before the November 5 elections.
So far there is practically a tie between the two candidates, according to the average of polls prepared by the FiveThirtyEight website.. According to a memo to which the EFE agency had access, the Biden campaign plans to go on the offensive in Thursday’s debate with attacks against Trump for his anti-abortion positions, the threat he poses to democracy and his economic plans, which could cut taxes and benefits like Medicare.
