The NYPD said it had drones over the area, robots, and a helicopter, as well as antiterrorism units outside monitoring the situation to keep everyone safe. With just nine days to go until Election Day, a new CBS News poll has the two presidential candidates neck and neck, with Vice President Kamala Harris at 50% and Trump at 49% among likely voters. In battleground states, both are polling at 50%. The focus of the respective campaigns has been on issues, including immigration, the war between ******* and ******, and ******. JD Vance, Elon Musk, Melania Trump spoke Sunday’s rally marked a detour from the battleground states for Trump. Among those who took the stage before the former president spoke were former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Staten Island activist Scott LoBaido. “President Trump grew up here. He’s a New Yorker,” Giuliani said. “That’s why people get a little bit annoyed at him. He speaks his mind.” When Trump entered the arena there was applause, a standing ovation, and everyone started chanting. Every seat appeared to be filled from the floor to the highest sections. In addition to Trump, vice presidential nominee JD Vance, billionaire supporter Elon Musk and Trump’s wife, Melania, all spoke. Trump supporters revel in former president’s appearance The former president is from Queens. CBS News New York met supporters from his home borough, but also a couple from Chicago. “I just love him, and he’s the best. I want the economy to get better,” a woman said. “We have an influx of migrants, ******** migrants. Our economy is … just go to the grocery store,” a man from Dutchess County added. Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman was one of several Long Island representatives who came to the Garden in the Trump motorcade. “Just look around. This is incredible. We’re in New York City in the middle of, you know, this is ******** … one of the most ******** cities in the country, and it’s amazing,” New York City Councilwoman Inna Vernikov said. Vulgar language during the introductions Before Trump took the stage, there was some vulgar language in the speeches. Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who goes by ***** Tony, referred made a crude joke referring to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage” and made other offensive jokes about ****** people and Latinos.
