Donald Trump Unveils Bold Plan for Massive Deportation at Tucson Rally

Former President Donald Trump addressed a crowd in Tucson on Thursday, suggesting that come November 5, voters would send Vice President Kamala Harris packing. “You’re fired, comrade!” he declared amidst enthusiastic cheers from his supporters.

Speaking at the Linda Ronstadt Music Hall, Trump promised prosperity through his agenda. He stated, “Every day will be filled with joy and opportunity,” while proposing to make housing affordable by eliminating taxes on tips. He painted a picture of economic revival under his leadership.

Trump’s rhetoric intensified as he made inflammatory claims about undocumented immigrants. He asserted that they were involved in crimes against American women and even hinted at pet theft. “We are being conquered and occupied by a foreign element,” he claimed, echoing themes central to his campaign.

His remarks were punctuated with music as he entered to “God Bless the USA,” facing a packed audience in the 2,200-seat venue. Over the next hour and fifteen minutes, Trump warned of Venezuelan gangs in Colorado and alleged theft of animals by Haitian refugees in Ohio, although local officials reported no evidence to support these claims.

On foreign policy, Trump suggested a lack of conflict in the Middle East and Ukraine would have been achieved under his presidency. He vowed to implement a nationwide missile defense system and criticized the Biden administration for its handling of international relations.

Trump’s assurances extended beyond national security to economic reforms, including the elimination of taxes on overtime and tips. He also focused on housing policy, promising to reduce regulations to ease construction.

During the rally, he claimed victory in his recent debate with Harris, asserting there would be no follow-up debates and calling for the dismissal of two ABC journalists who moderated the event.

Kari Lake, running for the U.S. Senate, also spoke at the event, aligning her campaign with Trump’s vision for change. She criticized Tucson’s current leadership and called for action against rising inflation.

Supporters expressed enthusiasm for Trump, reinforcing their belief in MAGA as a movement uniting diverse communities against elite establishments. “We’re fighting elite globalists,” said rallygoer Sean Lynch, emphasizing the importance of collective action.

Trump’s visit marked his second trip to Arizona in under a month, highlighting the state’s critical role as November approaches. Recent polls indicate a tight race, with Trump narrowly leading Harris.

Arizona Democratic Party Chair Yolanda Bejarano criticized Trump’s proposals, arguing they would harm working-class residents and favor the wealthy. “This November, Arizonans will vote for Democrats focused on lowering costs and creating jobs,” she stated.

Trump’s prior visit drew criticism, including from U.S. Senator Mark Kelly, who accused him of using the border issue for a mere photo opportunity. Kelly emphasized that Harris was actively seeking real solutions to border challenges.

Linda Ronstadt, the building’s namesake, publicly condemned Trump’s visit, sharing her dismay on social media. She highlighted the adverse effects of Trump’s policies on migrant families, stating her opposition to his “toxic politics.” The city of Tucson charged Trump nearly $145,000 to use the venue due to outstanding debts from a past event.
