Donald Trump held his first outdoor campaign rally since surviving an assassination attempt, where he targeted his rising Democratic rival, Kamala Harris, during an event in North Carolina on Wednesday. Speaking behind bulletproof glass at an aviation museum, Trump, 78, labeled Harris as “the most radical left person” to ever run for the presidency, warning that if she wins in November, “millions of jobs will vanish overnight.” He further claimed that a victory for Harris could lead to a global conflict, saying, “If comrade Kamala wins this November, World War III is virtually guaranteed to happen.” The rally, held in front of vintage warplanes, was also an opportunity for Trump to reassert his dominance in staging large-scale events, as Harris has been drawing substantial crowds since she replaced Joe Biden at the top of the Democratic ticket. It marked Trump’s first major outdoor event since being slightly injured in an assassination attempt during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, a month earlier, where one attendee was killed before the gunman was shot by a Secret Service sniper. Despite recommendations from the Secret Service to hold events in more controlled indoor settings, Trump has continued to hold rallies, including about a dozen indoor gatherings. On Wednesday, both Trump and his vice-presidential candidate, J.D. Vance, spoke from behind a bulletproof screen, addressing the crowd in Asheboro. At one point, Trump stepped off the stage to assist an attendee experiencing a medical issue, emphasizing his connection with the crowd. Crowds have always been central to Trump’s political image, portraying him as a populist leader. Throughout his presidency, he consistently held large rallies, even in the lead-up to the election, using them to project strength and contrast his approach with Biden’s more subdued campaign style. However, Trump’s strategy faced a setback on July 21 when Biden unexpectedly withdrew from the race and endorsed Harris, leading to a surge of support for her. Harris’s ability to attract large crowds, often exceeding 10,000 people, has become a visible shift in momentum. Her recent rallies, including one in Milwaukee, have drawn significant attention, matching or surpassing the crowds Trump had counted on as a key element of his campaign. North Carolina, a critical swing state in the upcoming November 5 election, is among the key battlegrounds where the race is tightly contested. The outcome of the election will be determined by the Electoral College, with candidates focusing their efforts on the handful of states where the race is most competitive. addBlock Recent Post China- Europe Trade War: Beijing Launches Probe On EU’s Dairy Products China- Europe Trade War: Beijing Launches Probe On EU’s Dairy Products Himachal Pradesh Landslide: 20 Bodies Recovered, Rescue Operation Underway Himachal Pradesh Landslide: 20 Bodies Recovered, Rescue Operation Underway PM Modi’s Visit To Poland: India & Poland Agreed On Social Security Agreement PM Modi’s Visit To Poland: India & Poland Agreed On Social Security Agreement Schools In Maharashtra Ordered To Install CCTV After Badlapur Violence Schools In Maharashtra Ordered To Install CCTV After Badlapur Violence US: Tim Walz To Speak At Democratic National Convention’s Third Night US: Tim Walz To Speak At Democratic National Convention’s Third Night Taliban Bans UN Special Rapporteur Richard Bennett, Claims To Spread Propaganda Taliban Bans UN Special Rapporteur Richard Bennett, Claims To Spread Propaganda 14 Dies In Reactor Explosion In Andhra Pradesh, President Droupadi Murmu Offers Condolences 14 Dies In Reactor Explosion In Andhra Pradesh, President Droupadi Murmu Offers Condolences

Donald Trump realizou seu primeiro comício ao ar livre desde que sobreviveu a uma tentativa de assassinato, onde mirou em sua crescente rival democrata, Kamala Harris, durante um evento na Carolina do Norte na quarta-feira. Falando atrás de vidro à prova de balas em um museu da aviação, Trump, 78, rotulou Harris como “a pessoa mais radical de esquerda” a concorrer à presidência, advertindo que se ela vencer em novembro, “milhões de empregos desaparecerão da noite para o dia.”

Ele alegou ainda que uma vitória para Harris poderia levar a um conflito global, dizendo: “Se a camarada Kamala vencer em novembro, a Terceira Guerra Mundial é praticamente garantida.”

O comício, realizado em frente a aviões de guerra vintage, também foi uma oportunidade para Trump reafirmar sua dominância na organização de eventos de grande escala, já que Harris tem atraído multidões substanciais desde que substituiu Joe Biden no topo da chapa democrática. Foi o primeiro grande evento ao ar livre de Trump desde que foi ligeiramente ferido em uma tentativa de assassinato durante um comício em Butler, Pensilvânia, um mês antes, onde um participante foi morto antes que o atirador fosse abatido por um atirador da Secret Service.

Apesar das recomendações do Serviço Secreto para realizar eventos em ambientes internos mais controlados, Trump continuou a realizar comícios, incluindo cerca de uma dúzia de encontros internos. Na quarta-feira, tanto Trump quanto seu candidato a vice-presidência, J.D. Vance, falaram atrás de uma tela à prova de balas, dirigindo-se à multidão em Asheboro. Em um momento, Trump saiu do palco para ajudar um participante que estava passando por um problema médico, enfatizando sua conexão com a plateia.

Multidões sempre foram centrais para a imagem política de Trump, retratando-o como um líder populista. Durante sua presidência, ele manteve comícios grandes, mesmo na véspera da eleição, usando-os para projetar força e contrastar sua abordagem com o estilo de campanha mais comedido de Biden.

No entanto, a estratégia de Trump enfrentou um revés em 21 de julho quando Biden retirou-se inesperadamente da corrida e endossou Harris, levando a um aumento de apoio a ela. A capacidade de Harris de atrair grandes multidões, frequentemente superiores a 10.000 pessoas, se tornou uma mudança visível no momentum. Seus comícios recentes, incluindo um em Milwaukee, atraíram atenção significativa, igualando ou superando as multidões que Trump havia contado como um elemento-chave de sua campanha.

A Carolina do Norte, um estado crucial em disputa na eleição de 5 de novembro, está entre os principais campos de batalha onde a corrida está acirradamente contestada. O resultado da eleição será determinado pelo Colégio Eleitoral, com os candidatos concentrando seus esforços nos poucos estados onde a corrida é mais competitiva.
