“The radical left Democrat communists are against voter I.D., they are for open borders. How about that? Open borders where criminals come in from all over the world. They are for massive censorship and blacklisting. They are for shredding the Constitution, gutting the rule of law and threatening their political opponents with violence and ruin. Remember, we are not the ones endangering American democracy. We are the ones saving American democracy. We are saving it from these very terrible people.”

STORYLINE:
Former President Donald Trump's debate counterprogramming tour continued Wednesday in South Florida before a friendly crowd about a half-hour's drive from where his rivals for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination were engaged in their third debate.
Trump's event was intended to upstage the other candidates, continuing a practice he has pursued now through three GOP debates. He has cited his commanding lead in the polls as the reason he hasn't been participating directly, but he has looked for ways to draw attention to himself with distinctive, simultaneous events.
Wednesday's rally was an opportunity to showcase support among Latino voters in the Miami suburb of Hialeah, a community with a strong Cuban-American population where Trump remains popular enough that a City Council candidate used his image on campaign signs.
Trump was introduced by Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, his former White House press secretary, who endorsed him at an event earlier this week.
Trump also said Biden and the Democrats were “after Catholics,” adding: “Any Catholic or Christian that votes for a Democrat, I have to say, they’re fools.” He did not mention that Biden is Catholic.
