Santiago/Getty Images On Sunday afternoon, to kick off the last full week of the 2024 presidential campaign, thousands of people lined up under a screen several stories high with the image of former President Donald Trump. Many leaned into racist, misogynistic and vulgar rhetoric, like comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who now famously referred to Puerto Rico as a "floating pile of garbage" There was intense backlash, and a Trump campaign advisor later put out a statement distancing the former President from Hinchcliff's remarks. And Stephen Miller, a policy advisor in the Trump White House and current senior campaign advisor underscored the former President's anti-immigrant message, saying "America is for Americans and Americans only." Finally, more than four hours into the program, Trump took the stage and spoke for another 78 minutes – repeating many of the themes his warm up acts had touched on, promising some of the following: Launching the "largest deportation program in American history to get these criminals out" out" Getting critical race theory and "transgender insanity the hell out of our schools" Trump referred to his opponent as a "train wreck," and promised the following: "This election is a choice between whether we will have four more years of gross incompetence and failure or whether we will begin the four greatest years in the history of our country."
