The event is one of a number Trump is holding this week as Democrats meet in Chicago to formally choose Vice President Kamala Harris as their nominee in the Nov. 5 election
Republican presidential nominee former President Donald Trump speaking at a campaign event at Precision Custom Components, in York, Pa., on Aug. 19.will visit a Michigan town on Tuesday one month after white supremacists rallied there, sparking renewed criticism from Democrats who accuse his campaign of stirring up racial tensions for political gain.
About a dozen white supremacists chanted “Heil Hitler” and carried signs reading “White Lives Matter” during a march through downtown Howell last month. According to local media, another group of demonstrators shouted, “We love Hitler, we love Trump” from a highway overpass just outside Howell. The Harris campaign has criticized Trump for planning the event in Howell while failing to condemn what it called a “blatant display of racism and antisemitism in his name.
Last week, an official Trump campaign account on X posted two images side-by-side, one showing a pristine small-town American front porch with a flag and the other showing images of mostly Black migrants crowding outside a New York City hotel. The caption on the post read: “Import the third world. Become the third world.” The Trump War Room post drew fire from the NAACP civil rights group as racist, but Trump’s aides stood by it.
“It begs the question: why there, why now?” Lajevardi said, noting that Howell is not populous. “The timing is important, the symbolism is important, and it can’t just be seen in a vacuum.” Michael Murphy, the sheriff of Livingston County and a Trump supporter, said in an interview he suspects the Trump campaign chose Howell because criminal activity has remained flat in Livingston County for about 15 years.
