Melania Trump slams Biden and Democrats in final solo campaign speech

11 02 2020 - First lady Melania Trump gave her fourth solo campaign speech on Monday afternoon in Huntersville, North Carolina. Mrs. Trump, a great supporter of her husband, slammed Democrats in remarks that touched on Covid-19, the military, and echoes of President Donald Trump's law and order messaging.

(Excerpt) "When rioters and looters were burning our cities and wrecking small businesses that belong to hard working families and bring jobs to our communities, where were the Democrats?" The First Lady said in a speech similar in content to the two she gave Saturday in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. "Why should we trust Joe Biden when he suggests he can do a better job? All you have to do is look back on his 47 years in political life to determine whether you think he is suddenly capable of putting the American people first....Because of acts of intolerance and even violence, honest and hardworking Americans are sometimes afraid to put Trump signs in their yards. Members of our White House staff have been thrown out of restaurants just for serving their country. Even big tech companies are now politically censoring us. All this from the supposedly tolerant left," she said.

Mrs. Trump, who last month battled coronavirus, told the crowd, most of whom were wearing masks, that the media and Democrats are politicizing the pandemic. The First Lady is expected to vote in person Tuesday morning in Palm Beach, Florida, where she is registered, before returning to the White House.
