In the midst of his ongoing trial over alleged hush money payments, former President Donald Trump took to a rally in Michigan’s Saginaw County to criticize the legal system, Chinese car companies, and President Joe Biden. Thousands gathered in Freeland, Michigan, inside an airplane hangar to hear Trump’s words.
Trump accused Biden of harming the U.S. economy and causing American cities to deteriorate through his policies. He condemned Democratic leadership in these cities, claiming they are crime-ridden and falling apart. Despite promising to work with Democrats to rebuild cities, such as Detroit where a comeback has been promised for decades without materializing, Trump avoided discussing successful recent events like hosting hundreds of thousands of people during the NFL draft without incidents.
Instead, he denounced legal actions against him, alleging they are politically motivated. Trump asserted that the American people will deliver the ultimate verdict on these legal challenges at the ballot box. The former president also reiterated false claims of ballot fraud in Detroit during the 2020 election.
Moreover, Trump pledged to protect Michigan’s auto industry by avoiding electric vehicles and imposing heavy taxes on cars made by Chinese companies. His remarks at the rally underscored his ongoing concerns about the legal system, economic policy, and international trade issues.
