\"\"<\/p>\n

Crowds lined the streets around Madison Square Garden as early as 8 a.m. Sunday morning, eight hours before former President Donald Trump was scheduled to speak. Though the rally was set for 5 p.m., sidewalks around the New York City venue were filled with supporters of all ages, waving American flags and wearing Trump merchandise in the crisp morning air.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Preparing for the Main Event<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Security closed off surrounding roads, with a heavy police presence including NYPD drones, antiterrorism units, and a helicopter to ensure safety for the thousands in attendance. Vendors selling Trump memorabilia were already in place, and an air of anticipation filled the area. \u201cMadison Square Garden is the center of the universe,\u201d said Trump campaign senior adviser Jason Miller, referencing the venue\u2019s storied history of hosting major events like the 1971 \u201cFight of the Century.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s Star-Studded Lineup<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s rally was packed with prominent speakers, including his vice-presidential running mate Sen. J.D. Vance, Elon Musk, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. In a rare appearance, Melania Trump introduced her husband, marking her first public speech of this election cycle.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cTrump has always had big dreams about a rally in this iconic venue,\u201d<\/strong> former U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin commented, noting Trump\u2019s longstanding desire to bring his campaign to Madison Square Garden. Republican delegates hope the event might signal a shift in typically blue New York.<\/p>\n

A Packed Arena and Campaign Highlights<\/h3>\n

The rally\u2019s turnout appeared to fill every seat, and Trump\u2019s entrance was met with applause, standing ovations, and chants from the crowd. In his remarks, Trump criticized Vice President Kamala Harris as a \u201ctrainwreck,\u201d outlining his stances on immigration, crime, and the economy. \u201cWe will rapidly defeat inflation, and we will very simply make America affordable again,\u201d<\/strong> he promised, followed by a video montage highlighting the impact of immigration.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Trump took a detour from standard battleground states with this rally, aiming for the hearts of New Yorkers. However, he assured the crowd that \u201cpeople tuning in from battleground states\u201d<\/strong> would be watching closely. The rally attracted a mixed crowd, with attendees from nearby neighborhoods and others who traveled from different parts of the country. \u201cJust look around,\u201d<\/strong> NYC Councilwoman Inna Vernikov said, noting the enthusiastic support for Trump in a typically liberal city.<\/p>\n

Controversial Language Before Trump\u2019s Speech<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Before Trump\u2019s arrival, some guest speakers used inflammatory language, drawing backlash. Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe\u2019s jokes included references that many found offensive, and radio host Sid Rosenberg used explicit language about prominent figures. Campaign advisor Danielle Alvarez clarified that these comments \u201cdo not reflect the views of President Trump or the campaign,\u201d<\/strong> stating they had not been reviewed in advance. Mayor Eric Adams condemned the remarks, calling for all speakers to avoid hateful rhetoric in the future.<\/p>\n

Rallying Support in Final Days Before Election<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With nine days remaining until Election Day, Trump\u2019s campaign is focused on issues like crime, the economy, and immigration, aiming to sway undecided voters. A recent CBS poll showed Trump and Harris in a tight race, each polling at around 50% in battleground states.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
