Trump asserts love for Puerto Rican community at Pennsylvania rally
At a rally in Pennsylvania, Donald Trump claimed he loves the Puerto Rican community more than anyone else. This statement followed a recent incident where a comedian made a derogatory joke about Puerto Rico at one of his events. Trump highlighted his past efforts for Puerto Rico during his presidency, despite criticism for his actions after Hurricane Maria. The rally featured speakers emphasizing their Puerto Rican heritage, aiming to connect with Latino voters in the key battleground state. Outside the rally, a small protest occurred, with some attendees expressing offense at the comedian's remarks. Inside, many supporters downplayed the controversy, viewing it as typical for Trump, while he focused on rallying his base with personal attacks and promises for the future.
