The former US president is targeting the key battleground state of Nevada in the US election this autumn.
Former US president Donald Trump told his supporters to ask for help if needed and appeared irritable with teleprompters that he said were not working during a scorching rally in Las Vegas.
Earlier in his speech, he said the campaign would offer help to people who were feeling tired and joked that “everybody”, including the US secret service, was worried about the safety of the crowds, and not about him.Mr Trump returned to Nevada, one of the top battleground states in the November election, for his second rally since he was found guilty in a hush-money scandal.
Well into his speech, Mr Trump said it was “not as bad” as he thought it would be, and said he was angrier with the teleprompters not working well, even when he used to mock then-president Barack Obama for relying on that device.“I pay all this money to teleprompter people, and I’d say 20% of the time, they don’t work,” he said, adding he would not pay the vendor who provided the prompters. “It’s a mess.
Mr McDonald and five other Republicans have been accused of submitting certificates to US congress falsely declaring Mr Trump the winner of Nevada’s 2020 presidential election. Their trial has been pushed back to next year. Mr Trump’s recent convictions have galvanised his support, but it remains to be seen if it will convince undecided voters
Mr Trump’s Nevada rally, his third in the state this year, came on the tail end of a western swing that included several high-dollar fundraisers where he was expected to rake in millions of dollars.
