GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. — A crowd of more than 10,000 people greeted former President Donald Trump at Gwinnett County’s Gas South Arena Wednesday night, as he asked his supporters to go to the polls and vote for him.
Trump immediately asked the crowd the question that has become the theme of his campaign.

“And I would like to begin by asking a very important question. Are you better off now than you were four years ago?” Trump asked the crowd.
Trump attacked his Democratic opponent Vice President Kamala Harris calling her “stupid” and warning of calamities from a stock market crash to World War three if she is elected.
He pushed his own proposals promising tariffs, tax cuts and no taxes on tips, overtime, and Social Security benefits without explaining his plans on how to pay for it.
And in a change from two months ago when he attacked Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, a move criticized by many Republicans, Trump praised Kemp’s handling of hurricane recovery.

“And I was here in Georgia with your governor a few weeks ago. He has done a good job with that,” Trump said to the crowd.
With only two weeks left before Election Day, Trump is energizing his base to go out and vote.
He leads in the polling in Georgia, but Harris is not far behind, meaning the peach state is still a toss-up.

“But now the fate of our nation is in your hands, and Georgia, you have to stand up and you have to tell Kamala Harris that, Kamala, you have done a horrible job,” Trump said to the crowd.
Trump will hit the campaign trail again.
On Thursday, Harris along with former President Barack Obama will be in Metro Atlanta to try and get her base to the polls, too.
