Former President Donald Trump rallied supporters in the battleground state of Georgia on Wednesday, less than two weeks before Election Day.
Trump wooed evangelical voters in a faith-based town hall at a church and then later spoke at a campaign rally.
The 45th president's visit comes as the race in the Peach State remains tight.
Over 2 Million Votes Cast
Meanwhile, more than 2 million Georgia residents have already cast their ballots in the state’s early voting period so far, according to officials. The state broke a record on its first day of early voting with more than 250,000 ballots cast, more than double the turnout for day one of early voting in 2020.Trump spoke to voters at a “Believers and Ballots” town hall at Christ Chapel in Zebulon, south of Atlanta, where he praised the early voting figures.
Lt. Gov. Bur Jones, who served as moderator, asked Trump how he leans into his faith when he is often “vilified.”
“When you have faith, when you believe in God, it’s a big advantage over people who don’t have that,” Trump answered.
Trump was also asked how he plans to support and protect Israel and the Jewish community as the next president.
Trump also revealed that he recently spoke with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on the phone, during which the former president reiterated his support for Israel.
Turning Point Action
After the “Believers and Ballots” town hall, the former president traveled to Duluth, Georgia for a rally hosted by Turning Point Action.Conservative activist Charlie Kirk told supporters at the rally that they are living in a "once-in-a-generation realignment," citing two high-profile former Democrats who have endorsed Trump.
"We get Tulsi Gabbard and Bobby Kennedy. They get Liz Cheney. Not bad," Kirk said.
Both Gabbard and Kennedy also spoke at the rally.
Trump told supporters that he will impose "historic tax cuts" as president, such as his "No Tax on Tips" plan for workers and no tax on Social Security benefits for seniors.
The former president said he would cut job-killing regulations and terminate the electric vehicle mandate if reelected.
Trump also spent some time praising SpaceX founder Elon Musk who is currently campaigning in the battleground state of Pennsylvania.
Harris, meanwhile, was also in Pennsylvania for a CNN town hall.
Trump won the state by 0.7 percent in 2016 and Biden won it by 1.2 percent in 2020. Pennsylvania is the biggest swing state and holds 19 electoral votes. It is considered one of three "blue wall" states, along with Michigan and Wisconsin.
