Trump laments White House exit, corrupt elections, and makes unfortunate remarks at media reporters

During a campaign rally in Pennsylvania on Sunday, former President Donald Trump admitted that he regrets leaving the White House. He also suggested that he wouldn't mind if a potential assassin were to target the journalists in the line of fire instead of him.

"My world’s favourite chart, done by the Border Patrol, said we had the safest border in the history of our country on the day that I left. I shouldn’t have left. I mean, honestly, because we did so, we did so well," Trump said in Lititz, Pennsylvania. He referred to the alleged election frauds of 2020, returning to these claims without concluding his previous remarks.

During his appearance, Trump focused on issues related to alleged election fraud, stating that it should be reported immediately after the polls close and suggesting that prolonged vote counting encourages misconduct.

"They accuse you of being a conspiracy theorist, ‘he’s a conspiracy-’ and they want to lock you up. They want to put you in jail. The ones that should be locked up by the ones that cheat on these horrible elections that we go through in our country," he said, describing his opponents as a "demonic" group. He also pointed out negative polls. He labelled the author of a shocking poll, which suggested his defeat in his Iowa stronghold, as an "enemy".

Trump's shocking statement

Later in his speech, Trump pointed to the bulletproof glass protecting him and the press stand opposite the podium, stating that if an assassin were to shoot at him, they would have to shoot through the journalists.

"To get me, somebody would have to shoot through the fake news. And I don't mind that so much," he added with a smirk.

The Sunday rally in Lititz was one of three planned that day by Trump. The others occurred in Kinston, North Carolina, and Macon, Georgia. The latest polls indicate a strengthening position for Kamala Harris in these states.

During her visit to Michigan, the Democratic candidate held meetings in an African American church in Detroit, calling for national unity. She quoted the book of Jeremiah, emphasizing the need for actions supporting God’s plan to unite Americans as one nation.

Harris also responded to media questions about the conflict in the Gaza Strip, posed by, among others, Arab voters in Michigan. She highlighted the tragic losses among Palestinians and assured that, as president, she would strive to end the war and achieve a two-state solution to ensure regional security.
