Two weeks before the presidential elections in USAthe presidential campaign of the Democrat Kamala Harris ha sent to the former president Barack Obama (2009-2017) to raise votes in Wisconsin and Michigantwo of the key states of the ‘blue wall’, which are part of the Democrats’ containment dam to keep the White House
Obama cemented his victories in 2008 and 2012 with resounding victories in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. If they lose them, as happened in 2016 in the elections between donald trump and Hillary Clinton, their chances of maintaining power are practically zero.
At a massive rally in Madison, Wisconsin, where vice presidential candidate Tim Walz served as opening act, Obama dedicated virtually his entire speech to attacking Trump.
“If you question the plans, Trump will resort to one response: blaming immigrants. He wants you to believe that if you let him detain whoever he wants and deport them, all your problems will be solved,” Obama said.
Actor Bradley Whitford, a native of Madison and known for his role in the political television series ‘The West Wing’, also participated in the rally.
Eminem joins the campaign and Obama raps
After the rally in Madison, Obama starred in another event tonight in Detroit (Michigan), in which was introduced by the rapper Eminemoriginally from that city.
Obama appeared on stage and began to demonstrate his musical skills and began rapping one of Eminem’s songs, Lose Yourselfand the crowd went crazy. He then resumed his criticism of Donald Trump, criticizing him for selling products during the election campaign.
With Obama in these big ‘blue wall’ cities, Harris’ campaign seeks to mobilize her traditional urban basewhich he desperately needs given the progress that, according to polls, Trump is making in certain demographic groups such as African-American men.
In parallel with Obama’s actions, the president of the United States, Joe Bidenappeared at a rally in New Hampshire alongside Senator Bernie Sanders, standard bearer of the progressive wing, to highlight the progress made in reducing the cost of medicines.
The price of medicines and the cost of living They have generally become key themes for the November 5 elections, in which polls predict a close race between Harris and Trump.
