Donald Trump said Kamala Harris turned the US into a “third world nation” after rambling about Elon Musk’s Starlink and Hurricane Milton at his Atlanta, Georgia rally on Tuesday night.
“If we win this election, it will be the greatest event, political event, or otherwise in the history of our country, and we’re going to turn it around fast,” Trump said. “It’s going to go very quickly. We’re going to turn it around fast. Kamala is turning us into a third world nation, which is true.”
Trump also praised Musk for giving North Carolina access to his Starlink satellite system, extending internet access to the region in the wake of Hurricanes Helene and Milton.
“We wish they took better care of Trump country, right?” Trump continued. “Our hearts are with the families of every citizen who is tragically lost and all of the people who lost their homes.”
Kamala Harris also continued her media blitz as she laid into Trump in an hour-long town hall interview with Charlamagne Tha God on Tuesday.
Harris said she is “going to” win the election, called Trump’s policy platform “fascist” and defended her own record during the Detroit event.
