Former President Donald Trump is set to hold a rally in Allentown, Pennsylvania, a city with a 55% Hispanic population, following controversy over racist jokes made by a comedian at his recent New York rally. The Allentown event aims to engage Latino voters, particularly Puerto Ricans, after backlash against the comedian's remarks. Trump has distanced himself from the comments, claiming he did not hear them and does not know the comedian involved. This rally marks Trump's second campaign stop in Pennsylvania, where he seeks to strengthen support among Hispanic voters. The state's Latino voter population has significantly increased since 2000, now totaling around 620,000.
