The U.S. election campaign continues today with Kamala Harris and Donald Trump visiting key states. The Republican candidate remains steadfast in his anti-immigration rhetoric.

While theoretically, the 78-year-old billionaire’s visit to Nevada today should focus on economic issues, he veered off-topic during a campaign rally in Arizona yesterday, where he, as usual, emphasized immigration—his favorite topic and a major voter concern according to polls.

In Nevada, which borders Mexico, Trump reiterated his claim that Haitian illegal immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, are stealing dogs and cats to eat them.

“It’s a wonderful community, it’s awful what’s happening,” the Republican charged, without evidence, accusing illegal immigrants of “snatching geese” from park ponds and “assaulting young American women.”

Trump has pledged that if re-elected, he will tackle illegal immigration with large-scale deportations.

Meanwhile, Laura Loomer, a right-wing conspiracy theorist who has frequently accompanied Trump on the campaign trail, launched a fierce attack against Harris, whose mother is Indian, suggesting on X that if she wins, the White House “will smell like curry.”

Today, Vice President Harris will be in another crucial state: Pennsylvania.

So far, Harris has not responded to her opponent’s claims. When Trump mentioned the Haitians eating pets, the Democrat shook her head in disbelief, showing a mix of shock and surprise.

Yesterday, the 59-year-old delivered a speech in North Carolina, another key southern state. “It’s time to turn the page” from Trump, she asserted, promising to defend the middle class and abortion rights.

Harris, who entered the presidential race after Joe Biden’s unexpected withdrawal two months ago, emphasized that “there are no frontrunners,” as polls show her neck-and-neck with Trump.

As in 2016 and 2020, the outcome appears to hinge on a few thousand votes in six or seven critical states.
