Harris trolls Trump during Georgia-Alabama game after rally insults : Live
Former president Donald Trump asserted Vice President Kamala Harris was “born mentally impaired” in the first few minutes at his Wisconsin rally on Saturday afternoon.
“Joe Biden became mentally impaired, Kamala was born that way,” Trump told a room of rallygoers in Prairie du Chien while criticizing the administration’s position on immigration.
The former president falsely asserted, once again, that Harris was appointed “border czar” and allowed migrants to cross the border and commit violent crimes.
“Only a mentally disabled person could have allowed this to happen to our country,” Trump said.
There is no evidence of mass “migrant crime” happening across America nor any indication Harris was born with a disability that impacts her mental or cognitive functioning.
Trump also blamed the Biden administration for not allocating enough Secret Service resources to accommodate a large outdoor rally. He complained the indoor space only held “2,000” people or less but that “40,000” people wanted to attend his rally.
The former president attended a college football game between Alabama and Georgia. During the game, Harris ran a campaign ad pressuring Trump to debate her a second time. “If you’ve got something to say, say it to my face,” she said in the ad.
New Harris ad taunts Trump during Georgia v Alabama game
Vice President Kamala Harris’s team is running ads during the Alabama and Georgia college football game, which Donald Trump is attending, that mocks Trump for refusing to participate in a second presidential debate against Harris.
The “Say It To My Face” ad uses stock footage of football players in contrast to footage of Trump golfing to claim the former president is a “loser” who will “take his ball home.”
“Winner never back down from a challenge,” the ad says. “But losers, they whine and waffle and take their ball home.”
The ad will air nationally during the primetime game and be featured on a plane that will fly above the Bryant-Denny Stadium while Trump is at the game.
“Donald Trump walked off the stage at the first debate angry and rattled after he failed to offer any coherent vision for where he wants to take this country, so now he’s trying to take his ball and go home,” Harris-Walz Communications Director Michael Tyler said/
“No matter where Trump looks tonight – whether it’s up in the sky or at the TV in his luxury box – he won’t be able to escape the truth: Trump is running away from a second debate with Vice President Harris because he doesn’t want the American people to see just how weak and unpopular he and his Project 2025 agenda are.”

Trump says he was denied Secret Service resources for rally
Former president Donald Trump’s rally in Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin was cut down from a large outdoor rally to a smaller indoor one because “the administration” could not give him the Secret Service resources necessary.
Trump claimed an outdoor space could have held “40,000” or “60,000” people but instead, the venue he held the rally could only hold “2,000” or “less.”
He said it was a result of lacking Secret Service resources – there have been two attempts to assassinate the former president in the last four months.
“Because the administration couldn’t give us the Secret Service necessary because they’re guarding the Iranian president who is looking to kill Trump,” the former president told people.
The former president insinuated Secret Service was protecting the president of Iran. The Independent could not verify that information immediately.

During the Ukrainian president’s visit this week, he toured an artillery shell factory in Scranton, but Vance claimed he came to campaign with Democratic leadership.
Zelensky used his visit to thank the factory workers for manufacturing the shells used to support Ukraine in its war against Russia.
“We spent $200 billion on Ukraine. You know what I wish Zelensky would do when he comes to the United States of America? Say thank you to the people of Pennsylvania and everybody else,” Vance misleadingly said.
