Why Trump says a second term would be different now


Why Trump says a second term would be different now

Former President Trump reiterated his plans to “Make America Great Again” as the 2024 race enters its final days.

Trump met with Fox News host Sean Hannity at Mar-a-Lago and repeated the same campaign promises he made on the campaign trail: He pledged to secure the border, fix the economic and immigration system and impose tariffs on to raise foreign countries.

The 2024 Republican presidential candidate said a possible second administration of his would be different because he now knows “everyone in Washington.”

“I didn’t know anyone (during his first term). I wasn't a Washingtonian. “I was rarely there,” Trump said on “Hannity” on Wednesday. “I know everyone (now). I know the good, the strong, the weak, the stupid. I know – I know everyone. And we're going to make this country great again, and we have to save our country.”

He protested against the Biden-Harris administration over its handling of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, record border crossings and weak foreign policy, pointing to Russia's war on Ukraine and Israel's war against Hamas, claiming again that neither would have happened without him started in the White House.

“We are respected again. We will make America great again. And there's nothing in the world I'd rather be doing. I don't want to be on a nice beach. I don't want to.” “Sitting in some hotel far away where it's very nice and watching TV or doing something, I want to do what I do,” Trump said. “It’s so incredible.”

The former president rode to his rally in Green Bay, Wisconsin, in a garbage truck on Wednesday after President Biden called Trump supporters “trash.”

The White House denied that Biden was referring to Trump's supporters and instead tried to shift blame to comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who called Puerto Rico a “floating island of trash” at Trump's rally at Madison Square Garden over the weekend.

“Today I called the hateful rhetoric about Puerto Rico expressed by Trump's supporters at his rally at Madison Square Garden trash – that's the only word I can think of to describe it. His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable. That's all I wanted to say.” “The comments at this rally do not reflect who we are as a nation,” one tweet said Tuesday night from Biden's Xformerly Twitter account.

Vice President Kamala Harris told reporters on the tarmac at Joint Base Andrews on Wednesday that she “strongly” disagrees with “any criticism of people based on who they vote for.”

“You heard my speech last night and constantly throughout my career,” she said, referring to her final campaign statement at the Ellipse. “I believe my work is about representing all people, whether they support me or not.”
