Donald Trump brought his campaign to the Alabama vs Georgia game. Here's how football fans reacted to the Republican presidential nominee.
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — As Donald Trump railed against immigrants Saturday afternoon in the Rust Belt, his supporters in the Deep South had turned his earlier broadsides into a rallying cry over a college football game as they prepared for the former president’s visit later in the evening.
The Harris campaign is reportedly planning to fly a banner over Bryant-Denny Stadium trolling former President Trump when he attends the Georgia-Alabama game Saturday.
When former President Donald Trump looks up from his seat in Bryant-Denny Stadium Saturday night during the Alabama-Georgia football game, he may see more than just 100,000 fans watching a high-stakes college football showdown.
The Biden administration filed a suit against Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen Friday, accusing the election official of violating federal law by purging voter rolls too close to Election Day.
The Justice Department sued Alabama, arguing that an effort to remove voters from state rolls was taking place too close to Election Day in violation of federal law.
According to The Washington Post, Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung, upon learning of the ad, said: “Kamala Harris would never show up to a sporting event like this [Alabama-Georgia] because she’d get booed out of the stadium and embarrass herself.” The Independent has reached out to the Trump campaign for comment.
Former President Donald Trump was met with cheers when he arrived at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa for Saturday’s matchup between the Crimson Tide and Georgia. Trump made his entrance part way through the first quarter of the game.
A small plane was to fly over Tuscaloosa during the Georgia game with a banner reading, “Trump’s Punting on 2nd Debate.”
Kamala Harris doesn’t get to decide if Donald Trump debates her a second time. But she will attempt to extract a cost if he won’t.
