Former President Trump on Saturday slammed Vice President Harris, calling him “mentally ill” for tasking him with border “czars” in a long and graphic campaign-stealing campaign in Wisconsin.
“Joe Biden was mentally ill. Kamala was born that way… Only mentally ill people could not allow something like this to happen to our country,” Trump, 78, said. The president made the remarks during a speech in Prairie du Chien, which drew thunderous applause.
She's a “very stupid person,” Trump later added.
The speech focused primarily on immigration, a long-standing cornerstone of the Trump campaign. In his speech, the former president shared graphic stories about a country overrun by illegal immigrants.
“Just this month, right here in this beautiful city, police arrested an illegal alien who was part of a violent Venezuelan prison gang,” President Trump said.
“This vile monster was charged with holding a mother and daughter captive against their will and sexually assaulting them multiple times. crossed the wide open borders of Kamala with the animals.

“We're letting people in who are trying to break into our homes,” Harris said. [through] Once they come to your door, they'll do whatever they want. they do whatever they want. These people are animals,” Trump continued.
“They make our criminals look like babies. These guys are frigid killers. They'll come into your kitchen. They'll cut your throat.”
Polls in battleground states show deep pessimism among voters, with more than 4 in 10 Wisconsin voters saying the state is at risk of becoming a failed state. There is.
At various times, Trump digressed to other favorite topics.
He told the assembled crowd that he was acting as a lawyer for the 2024 presidential election and, if elected, would be prepared to punish anyone who tried to overturn the results.
“If we win, we will prosecute those who rigged this election,” he said. “And if we can, we'll go back to where we were… There are two things we need: strong borders and fair elections. And we don't have either of those.”
President Trump also accused Harris of planning to legalize the deadly drug fentanyl in the United States.
“She's so radical that she even wants to legalize fentanyl right now. Fentanyl will kill you with just a little prick on the end of a pin,” Trump said. “I have a lot of friends who have lost children to fentanyl.”
The candidate also briefly digressed on the issue of New York City Mayor Eric Adams, who was indicted this week on numerous federal charges, including bribery, wire fraud and conspiracy. Echoing his comments from Trump Tower, President Trump said Adams never would have faced the federal government's hammer if he had remained silent about the Big Apple's immigration crisis.
“[Migrants] All over the place. And I said before, these towns, these small towns and cities, and by the way, the big cities too. Look what happened in New York, New York. And they went after the mayor of New York, because the mayor said, “We can't do that.'' You can't do that. They just indicted him,” Trump said, calling Adams' pursuers “a vicious monster of government.”
Earlier Saturday, President Trump's running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance, also spoke out on immigration, promising “compassionate” border policies.
