Supporters Salute Trump at Ohio Rally
Former President Donald Trump spoke at a rally to endorse J.D. Vance for US Senate in Youngstown, Ohio, on Saturday, September 17.

“We are a nation that allowed Russia to devastate a country — Ukraine — killing hundreds of thousands of people, and it will only get worse. It would never have happened with me as your commander in chief and for four long years it didn’t happen. And China, with Taiwan, is next. We are a nation that has weaponized its law enforcement against the opposing political party like never, ever, before,” Trump said.
