Trump holds rally in Pennsylvania city with Latino-majority population
SUMMARY
At a rally in Allentown, Pennsylvania, former President Donald Trump emphasized his strong support for Latino Americans, aiming to connect with the large Puerto Rican community in the state. Addressing an audience that warmly welcomed him, Trump received applause for his vision to restore law and order through plans like mass deportations of illegal aliens and strong penalties for violent offenders. “On day one, I will launch the largest deportation program in American history,” and his crowd responded with chants of "USA!" as he outlined his commitment to prioritizing safety and security for American citizens. Despite media backlash after a comedian’s jokes about Puerto Rico at a New York rally, Trump’s campaign distanced itself from the remarks and focused on Trump’s dedication to uplifting all American communities. Trump affirmed his respect for Puerto Ricans and recalled his strong Latino support; “Nobody loves our Latino community and our Puerto Rican community more than I do."
