This means Trump's speech to Christians

In a speech to his Christian constituents on Friday, Trump said: “In four years you won’t have to vote again.”

He also accused his rival Kamala Harris of being anti-Semitic.

– He gives a presentation to an audience, says American expert Emma Ricknell.

On Friday local time, Republican President Donald Trump addressed the conservative Christian group Turning Point America in Florida. At the end of his speech, he urged his Christian constituents to go vote.

– Christians, go out and vote just this once. You won't have to do it again. Four more years, it'll be fixed, it'll be fine, you won't have to vote again beautiful Christians, I love you Christians, he says and continues:

– In four years you won't have to vote again. We'll organize it so well that you won't have to vote.

Emma Ricknell is an American expert at Lynn University. She thinks the statement is strange.

“To me, it seems to mean that the movement will be so strong that they won’t have to work to gather votes,” she says. “But that’s a very strange way of saying it.”

“He's putting on a show for the audience.”

According to her, Trump always says things that are “incredibly exaggerated.”

– He's giving a presentation to an audience, and it's strange that he doesn't think what he says there will be heard by people everywhere, you say.

Since the storming of the Capitol on January 6, 2021, the Democratic Party has been pushing a narrative that Donald Trump and his allies are extremists willing to disenfranchise voters and remain in power, according to reports. The New York TimesBut now Republicans are trying to flip the narrative.

“The way the 2020 election turned out is the most obvious example of the problem with Trump and how he views democracy, and it’s hard to escape from it,” says Emma Ricnell.

She sees a risk that the same situation could happen again now that the elections are about to start.

– I think some people are afraid of that. I think it's hard to escape the fact that it could happen again.

Attacks on Kamala Harris

But Trump didn’t just urge his voters to vote, he took real aim at his rival Kamala Harris, calling her an anti-Semite and accusing her of “killing babies.”

– If Kamala Harris gets her way, she will introduce a federal abortion law that would allow babies to be removed from the womb in the eighth or ninth month and also allow babies to be executed after birth, Trump said during his speech.

Emma Ricknell thinks he now seems to be getting his speech right.

– The abortion issue in particular could become very central. As we know, Trump’s election strategy is to attack his opponent, and he says and continues:

– The abortion issue is an area where Harris has continued his policy a lot. And Trump is doing his best on this particular point.
