Trump promises supporters ‘liberation day’ on 5 Novemberpublished at 05:50 Greenwich Mean Time
During Donald Trump’s Saturday night campaign rally in North Carolina, we heard him urging his supporters to vote as soon as possible, saying: “When you’re winning by a lot, you can still lose by a little.”
He told them the US is “now an occupied country, but it will soon be an occupied country no longer”, adding that the 5 November election “will be liberation day in America, it’s going to be liberation”.
“I’m working hard, because we have to win it,” he said, after asking the crowd if they would mind if he condensed his remarks because it was so “late at night”.
Trump ended up speaking for around 90 minutes, which is fairly common for his rallies. They often last several hours with guest speakers – and Trump regularly speaks for more than two hours himself.
The former president told the crowd he’s planning a packed schedule of rallies over the last two days of the campaign, with three planned for Sunday and four on Monday.
According to his campaign schedule, Trump will hold rallies tomorrow in Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia.
