More lies, more hatred. He lies about pre-existing conditions: Republicans have opposed them. He makes up a middle class tax cut that is unlikely to happen – why would it be needed if the last one helped the middle class (which it didn’t).
Here comes the part of the Charlotte rally where Trump drops all pretenses & dives headfirst into authoritarian fearmongering: "As we speak, Democrats are encouraging illegal aliens to break our laws…They want to release criminal aliens right out of jail and onto your streets."

"Political violence must never ever be allowed in America and I'll do everything in my power to stop it," Trump says at North Carolina rally, reading from teleprompter. "The media has a major role to play, whether they want to or not."

"We have seen an effort by the media in recent hours to use the sinister actions of one individual to score political points against me," Trump says. "The media has tried to attack the incredible Americans who support our movement to give power back to the people."

Trump says there is a town in California where "illegal aliens" have taken over the town council. Crowd doesn't like that idea. Doesn't name the town.

If Trump cannot tell his supporters this is unacceptable & the GOP leadership will not tell him this is unacceptable then it’s up to the voters on November 6 to tell them all its unacceptable. #Vote. https://t.co/n5uCmCju6X
