Former President Donald Trump appeared to reference the infamous Access Hollywood tape which was published late in the 2016 campaign in which he said he could grab women by their genitals because of his fame.
Discussing Elon Musk’s and SpaceX’s rocket boosters, Trump said, “And those two big arms, you saw the arms, they grab that thing like you grab your beautiful baby … Years ago, I would have said something else, but I’ve learned.”
He added: “I would have been a little bit more risque.”
The ex-commander-in-chief made similar comments over the weekend.
Vice President Kamala Harris and Trump are making their final pitches to voters on Monday, the last full day of campaigning before Election Day.

Trump, meanwhile, is also concentrating on the pivotal swing state of Pennsylvania, delivering rallies in Reading and Pittsburgh before closing in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Former Homeland Security general counsel says it’s time to ‘close the book on Trump’
John Mitnick — former Homeland Security general counsel who was appointed and fired by Trump, and a former official at Raytheon and the Heritage Foundation — warned fellow conservatives that the former president is “reckless, angry, vengeful, and narcissistic, and he has no respect for the Constitution or the rule of law.”
“He is not a conservative; rather, he is a would-be autocrat and fascist motivated exclusively by his personal self-interest,” he wrote in a thread on X on Sunday. “If you think he cares about you or your family, I assure you that he does not. He cares only about himself.”
He urged support for Kamala Harris and said, “It’s time to close the book on Trump” and “rebuild” the Republican Party.

Trump reflects on end of campaign
Reflecting on the end of the campaign, Trump said, “I won’t be doing this anymore with North Carolina, and I won’t be doing this anymore … after today.”
“I’m just thinking, as I’m going through this, that this will be our final moment, but … the more exciting moment is going to begin,” he added. “These moments of hundreds and hundreds of the most incredible rallies any country, no country has ever seen anything like that. But these moments that we’ve had together, these really were just to create what we hopefully will create tomorrow, which is we’re going to make America great again.”

Trump repeats false FEMA claim
Trump once again made the false claim that FEMA funds were allocated to help undocumented migrants.
“FEMA did a horrible job. The administration – they’re still not there. You know why? Because they’ve spent all their money on bringing in murderers and a lot of people,” Trump said on Monday in Raleigh, North Carolina, speaking about hurricanes striking Florida, North Carolina, and other states. “They spent all their money on bringing in illegal migrants. They’ve also taken a lot of your jobs, especially jobs from the Black population.”
