Trump and Kamala Harris rally in the Rust Belt

GLENDALE, Ariz. — At an on-stage event dominated by extensive rambling and derogatory attacks against his opponents, Trump — just four days out from Election Day — suggested that one of his top Republican critics would not be such a “war hawk” if she had guns pointed at her.

Trump, sitting in a chair next to right-wing media personality Tucker Carlson for what was billed as a live interview event, told an arena of thousands of supporters yesterday that President Joe Biden was a “stupid bastard” and his Democratic opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, was “a sleaze bag.”

He also said that he would leave Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a vaccine skeptic, “do anything he wants” in his second administration related to health care policy, noting that his newfound politically “wants to look at the vaccines.”

“He really wants to with the pesticides and the, you know, all the different things. I said, he can do it,” Trump said of the former independent presidential candidate. “He can do anything he wants. He wants to look at the vaccines. He wants—everything. I think it’s great,” Trump continued.

But the former president, no stranger to personal attacks, reserved his most violent comments for former Rep. Liz Cheney.

In a lengthy and uncompromising riff on Cheney, Trump seemed to imply that the former congresswoman would be less of a “war hawk” — as Trump referred to her — if she was in a war herself with guns “trained on her face.”

“She’s a radical war hawk. Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her,” Trump said. “OK, let’s see how she feels about it. “You know when the guns are trained on her face — you know, they’re all war hawks when they’re sitting in Washington in a nice building,” Trump continued.
