Trump Rally In Arizona Underway Shortly

US

Former President Donald Trump is shortly due to appear at a campaign rally in Sierra Vista, Arizona, following a visit to the US-Mexico border. Livestream.

  • The event is part of a tour of swing states designed to counterprogramme the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Illinois with campaign events focused on Vice President Kamala Harris' perceived political vulnerabilities.
  • Yesterday, Trump delivered a speech in North Carolina on national security, with Trump blaming Harris and Biden for the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan and the wars in Ukraine and Gaza.
  • In Arizona, Trump will attempt to reframe immigration as the primary wedge issue of the election. Trump will likely renew accusations that Harris is weak on immigration, and note that she was charged with addressing the root causes of Central American migration as part of her VP portfolio.
  • The Arizona Mirror notes that Democrats have taken steps to harden their position on immigration: "Some variation of the phrase “secure the border” appears 13 times in the 2024 Democratic platform – up from zero in the 2020 version."
  • Harris' exposure to the issue may be less severe than expected, due to a recent fall in migrant crossings following President Biden's executive order in June.
  • Advocacy group WOLA notes: "The U.S.-Mexico border is at the lowest point for migration since the Biden administration began, because of a crackdown in Mexico and sharp new limits on asylum access."
  • Tomorrow, Trump and his VP nominee, Senator JD Vance (R-OH), will hold a rally in Glendale, Arizona where there has been speculation that independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. could endorse Trump.
