Former US President Donald Trump has raised some red flags in his bid to clinching the November 2024 Presidential slot.
Trump who is the presumptive Republican Presidential nominee for the 2024 race was defeated by the incumbent Joe Biden in November 2020 Presidential election. Biden who is the Presidential nominee for Democratic Party will again square against him.
The Supreme Court on Monday, March 4 unanimously restored Trump to 2024 presidential primary ballots, rejecting state attempts to ban the Republican former president over the Capitol riot.
The justices ruled a day before the Super Tuesday primaries that states cannot invoke a post-Civil War constitutional provision to keep presidential candidates from appearing on ballots. That power resides with Congress, the court wrote in an unsigned opinion.
As part of the red flags prior the election, Trump denounced some undocumented immigrants as “not people” and warned of a “blood bath” if he is not reelected at a chaotic rally in Ohio on Saturday night.
Trump spoke in a Dayton, Ohio, suburb on Saturday to campaign for Senate candidate Bernie Moreno, who faces a neck and neck primary against state Sen. Matt Dolan and Secretary of State Frank LaRose on Tuesday.
The former president’s comments about migrants accused of crimes come as immigration remains a critical issue for the 2024 election.
“I don’t know if you call them people,” he said at the rally. “In some cases they’re not people, in my opinion. But I’m not allowed to say that because the radical left says that’s a terrible thing to say.”
Trump also predicted a dire scene if he loses the November election, claiming Biden would tank the U.S. economy.
“If I don’t get elected, it’s going to be a blood bath for the whole — that’s going to be the least of it. It’s going to be a blood bath for the country,” Trump said while discussing his proposal for steep tariffs on vehicle imports.
The Biden campaign denounced the comments as part of Trump’s “threats of political violence.”
“He wants another January 6, but the American people are going to give him another electoral defeat this November because they continue to reject his extremism, his affection for violence, and his thirst for revenge,” campaign spokesperson James Singer said in a statement.
Trump’s comments Saturday echo his previous use of pejorative language against immigrants, which began at the launch of his 2016 presidential campaign, where he called Mexicans “rapists,” and recently when he said migrants are “poisoning the blood of our country.”
The latter comment drew comparisons to similar phrases in Adolf Hitler’s “Mein Kampf,” a comparison Trump has denied and denounced.
The three-person race for the Republican Ohio Senate nomination is expected to go down to the wire, with recent polls showing either Moreno or Dolan in the lead.
Moreno has gained the backing of Trump and his allies, while Dolan is backed by more moderate poll.
Moreover, Trump has hinted at deporting Prince Harry from the U.S. if re-elected as President.
During a sit down with GBN broadcaster Nigel Farage, Donald Trump made it clear that King Charles’ son would not get special privileges regarding his residency in the States if he potentially lied on his visa application.
Recall that Harry was very candid about his past drug use including cocaine, weed and psychedelic mushrooms in his memoir “Spare.”
While Prince Harry’s hard-partying is in the past now, an applicant’s past drug use may technically make them ineligible for a visa, which is why many are curious about how Prince Harry got his.
In response to the chatter, Donald has promised to take action if the Duke’s visa had any inaccuracies. But he stayed coy on the specifics of his plan, just like he had before.
This is not the first time Donald Trump has suggested Prince Harry may get the boot under a new potential term of his.
Prince Harry currently resides in the U.S. on a visa, as he’s yet to become an American citizen; something he says he is still considering. His wife, Meghan Markle, is a natural-born U.S. citizen with their children, Archie and Lilibet, being dual citizens.
