Trump campaigns in longshot Virginia
Three days out from Election Day, former President Donald Trump made a stop in Virginia as the campaign attempts to expand its electoral map.
Trump told the crowd that he was capable of making the longshot bid to win Virginia before quickly saying it wouldn’t be that important.
“I'll tell you what. We win Virginia, we win the whole thing without question," he said. "Now it's very possible that without winning Virginia we're going to win the whole thing, too, but …wouldn't it be cool?”
The last Republican to win Virginia was George W. Bush in 2004.
In a state where Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin successfully ran on education in his winning 2021 gubernatorial bid, Trump struck a similar tone, saying he would "stop the indoctrination of your children."
He added, "And we will not let them try to change your kid's gender … We won't be changing your children's gender with their transgender craziness."
Trump also brought to stage members of the Roanoke College women’s swimming team to highlight his anti-trans messaging.
The team was embroiled in a controversy last year after members of the team called for the NCAA to change policies to ban transgender athletes from competing in women's sports.
Continuing to court suburban women, Trump also highlighted a promise to expand the child tax credit and to create a tax credit for family caregivers.
Trump went on to argue that if immigration numbers were released before the election, Harris wouldn’t get a single Black person to vote for her, making the racial argument that immigrants were stealing the jobs of the African American community.
“The African American population of this country is being decimated by the hundreds of thousands of people that just keep pouring through the open borders of stupid Kamala."
