Trump returns to 'epicenter of everything' for Madison Square Garden rally
(CNN) Donald Trump is kicking off the final full week of the presidential race Sunday with a rally at Madison Square Garden, betting on his own showmanship as he seeks to fill the iconic venue and create a spectacle that will reach television and phone screens in all seven battleground states.
The former president is returning to his hometown of New York City deep-blue turf that virtually no Republicans expect to win, but where signs of discontent and state and local Democratic leadership struggles could help endangered GOP incumbents hold House seats in the surrounding suburbs.
Its the latest in a line of Trump visits to blue states that has also included a rally in Californias Coachella Valley this month, one on Long Island in the summer and a recent stop for an economic forum in Chicago.
At each stop, in dehumanizing terms, Trump is laying the blame for crime and growing numbers of migrants at the feet of his Democratic rival, Vice President Kamala Harris.
