Trump Tells Voters The Real Question They Should Be Asking About Biden After Debate

Former President Donald Trump told voters in Virginia that the real question they should have after the presidential debate is whether the country can survive four more years of President Joe Biden.

Trump made the comments at a rally in Virginia on Friday, just one day after CNN hosted a presidential debate in Atlanta where Biden frequently appeared lost and confused. During the rally at Historic Greenbrier Farms in Chesapeake, Trump appeared with Virginia Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin and spoke to thousands of Virginia voters.

“The question every voter should be asking themselves today is not whether Joe Biden can survive a 90-minute debate performance, but whether America can survive four more years of crooked Joe Biden in the White House,” Trump said, according to Fox News.

Biden, who easily bested Trump in Virginia in 2020, now only holds about a two-point lead in the state, according to an average of polls.

“Our case to Virginia is very simple,” Trump added during the rally. “We will seal the border, we will make the American Dream affordable again, but we will bring back the American Dream, something you don’t hear about anymore. … Under my leadership, we had the greatest economy in the history of the world … during my term, we had gasoline down to $1.87 a gallon.”

Around 10,000 reportedly attended the rally where Trump spoke for about 90 minutes.

Trump also said that a bigger problem for the country was Biden’s policies, not just his personal health.

“Remember, the biggest problem for our country is not Joe Biden’s personal decline,” he said. “It’s that Joe Biden’s policies are causing America’s decline at a level that we’ve never seen before.”

Youngkin, who won an upset bid for governor in 2021, promised to help get Trump into the White House at the rally.

“Mr. President, this is the best Trump rally that you have ever had and you are doing it in Virginia, and yes, on behalf of 8.7 million Virginians, Mr. President, we are going to go to work and get you back in the White House,” he said.

Biden was widely criticized in the media and by Democratic strategists for his shaky performance during Thursday’s night debate, prompting some to question whether Democrats would try to swap him out. Throughout the debate, Trump repeatedly attacked Biden over the record number of illegal immigrants who have entered the country under his watch while Biden criticized Trump for his handling of the economy and ongoing legal problems.

Judge Blocks Oklahoma Bill Cracking Down On Illegal Immigration After Lawsuit From Biden Admin

A federal judge on Friday temporarily blocked an Oklahoma law making illegal immigration a state crime after the state was sued by the Biden administration.

In his decision, U.S. District Judge Bernard M. Jones said that Oklahoma’s law giving state law enforcement more power to counteract illegal immigration appeared to conflict with federal law, issuing a temporary injunction against the law. Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond said that he would appeal the decision.

“While today’s court ruling is disappointing, I will not stop fighting for Oklahoma and our right to protect our borders. The Biden Administration’s complete failure to enforce federal immigration laws made House Bill 4156 a necessity,” he said. “We intend to appeal today’s decision and defend one of the most powerful tools we have to fight the criminal activity largely being fueled by illegal aliens in Oklahoma.”

Oklahoma’s legislation permits state law enforcement to arrest people for entering the United States illegally. If convicted, the illegal immigrant would be guilty of “impermissible occupation” and could be punished with up to a year in jail and a $500 fine. The person would also be required to leave the state within 72 hours “following his or her conviction or release from custody, whichever comes later.” A second offense, upgraded to a felony, would allow the illegal immigrant to be held for two years behind bars and fined up to $1,000. Again, the person would be required to leave the state within 72 hours of being convicted or completing a prison sentence.

The legislation was set to go into effect on July 1. The measure was passed 39-8 in the Senate and 77-20 in the House early this year.

After the law was enacted, the state was sued by the Justice Department, which claimed that the law was unconstitutional.

“While this Court may very well be sympathetic to the concerns raised by Oklahoma, such concerns should not — and, indeed, cannot — be allowed to undermine the long-standing, comprehensive federal framework that defines immigration policy. Sensitive matters of immigration policy ‘must be made with one voice,’” Jones wrote. “And for better or for worse, that voice belongs not to one individual state, but to the United States.”

Oklahoma was one of multiple states, including Texas and Iowa, that have passed legislation to give law enforcement more tools to push back against the surge of illegal immigrants who have entered the country under President Joe Biden.
