Trump just finished at Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where the time is 2:09 AM. His final rally saw him return to the prevailing themes of his campaign – the economy and immigration.

He repeated some of his campaign promises, including that he wants the death penalty for any migrant who kills a law enforcement officer or an American citizen.

The former president also spent much of his speech attacking Kamala Harris and Joe Biden and their record over the past four years, but emphasized his ambition to “fix every problem facing our country.”

“I think we’re going to have a great result later,” he told attendees. “I think we’re going to win in Michigan.”

At the end of the rally, Trump’s children joined him on stage, paying tribute and encouraging everyone to vote.

“Bottom line, with your vote we will fire Kamala and save America. We will lower your taxes and inflation, lower your prices, raise your wages, and bring thousands of factories back to America and back to Michigan. and many of them will use my favorite word – tariff,” he said to cheers.
