Trump in Detroit: The whole country will be like Detroit if Kamala Harris is your president



Detroit just hosted the largest NFL Draft in history, the Tigers are back in the playoffs, the Lions are headed to the Super Bowl, crime is down and our population is growing. Lots of cities should be like Detroit. And we did it all without Trump’s help.

coming to a city to spew his garbage and insulting everyone there like that. F him.

They should have gotten a couple of linebackers from the Lions to escort him out of town, and “dont be too nice” about it.

Does he think these kinds of statements will increase his base? By the way what venue is he speaking to? How many people are showing up for it?
