Donald Trump and Kamala Harris' differing styles were on full display during dueling rallies Friday night in Milwaukee, the largest city in one of the nation’s most important swing states.
The two held late night rallies roughly six miles apart in Wisconsin's largest city, with Harris generally sticking to the script in a speech that lasted 24 minutes, while Trump gave a signature rally speech, veering off-script and rambling on odd topics including his audio equipment, while touching on a wide-range of issues over nearly 90 minutes.
Trump spoke to a packed Fiserv Forum, the home of Milwaukee Bucks, spending time on staples of his stump speeches like immigration as well as non-traditional topics that had little to do with the 2024 election.
Early in his speech, Trump gave a shout-out to Milwaukee Bucks’ star player, Giannis Antetokounmpo, who was born in Greece. The Republican presidential nominee mused to the crowd if he was more Greek than the athlete whose nickname is the “Greek Freak.”
“I would say the Greek,” the term Trump used when talking about the NBA star, “Is a seriously good player. Do you agree? And tell me who has more Greek in him. The Greek, or me? I think we have about the same.”
