Speaking to a packed crowd in Glendale — in front of some audience members wearing orange construction vests and trash bags — former President Donald Trump ended a whirlwind day campaigning through the Southwest with a fireside chat alongside Tucker Carlson.
Trump told Carlson he was confident he’d win on Tuesday and sowed the seeds for his supporters to doubt the results if he’s defeated by Harris in states like Arizona, which he lost to Biden in 2020.
“We're doing very well,” Trump said. “I think we're leading by a lot, and we can keep them, we can keep that cheating down, because they’re a bunch of cheats. If we can keep that cheating down, we're going to have a tremendous victory.”
Carlson, claiming Democrats were purposefully opening the United States’ southern border to illegal immigrants, asked Trump what their motive might be.
“So they could be stupid,” Trump suggested. “They could also hate our country. They could hate our country, they may, they may hate our country. They may not even know it.”
Trump also echoed a racist conspiracy theory by adding that Democrats may be allowing immigrants into the country to cast illegal votes in the election.
“So it’s one of those three things,” Trump said. “Nobody really knows.”
