Donald Trump will be joined by former Presidential candidates Vivek Ramaswamy and Tulsi Gabbard tonight in Las Vegas at a town hall with Asian American and Pacific Islander voters.
Gabbard, a Samoan American, ran for president in 2020 as a Democrat but has since become a Republican.
Ramaswamy finished fourth this year in the GOP Iowa Caucus behind Trump, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley before dropping out.
They will be joined by Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point, a conservative group that targets high school and college students.
The Democrats plan to circle the rally with a mobile billboard that cites a report from the Atlantic quoting Trump as saying “I need the kind of generals that Hitler had.”
“From threatening to turn the military on American citizens to praising Hitler, Donald Trump is a danger to American democracy,” Democratic National Committee Chair Jaime Harrison said in a statement. “Trump is increasingly unstable, unhinged, and out for unchecked power through his Project 2025 agenda. Trump already tried to overthrow the will of Nevada once and there’s no doubt he’ll try to do it again. Freedom is on the line and the only way to stop Trump is to vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in November.”
Six electoral college votes are up for grabs in Nevada in the November election.
