Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally overshadowed by his allies’ crude and racist remarks

Former President Donald Trump delivered a speech at a rally at Madison Square Garden, where he touched on topics like immigration and the economy. However, the event was overshadowed by racist comments made by warm-up speakers, including a comedian’s jokes about Latinos and Black Americans. Trump described his opponents as “the enemy from within” and criticized Vice President Kamala Harris. Despite the controversial remarks, Trump offered new policy positions and expressed his desire to win New York, a state that hasn’t voted Republican in decades. The event drew criticism from multiple GOP members of Congress and Trump’s campaign sought to distance itself from the offensive comments.
