MOSINEE, Wisconsin - Donald Trump pledged in Wisconsin on Saturday (Sept 7) to throw up unprecedented tariffs and clamp down on immigrants he said are stealing jobs and killing Americans, as he sought to solidify support among working-class and rural whites, a key part of his base.

Speaking at a regional airport in Mosinee, a town of about 4,500 people, the Republican presidential candidate warned that even allies like the European Union would face new trade restrictions if he wins the Nov. 5 election against Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.

He repeatedly presented migrants as a grave danger to Wisconsin, warning without evidence that immigrants in the country illegally could evict local residents from their homes.

"Crime is through the roof, and you haven't seen the migrant crime yet," Trump said. "It started, and it's vicious, but you haven't seen the extent of it yet."

Trump also warned, as he has in previous rallies, that the 2024 election could be the nation's last.
