Trump heads to Aurora, ground zero for his anti-immigration message

AURORA, United States: Donald Trump will push his anti-immigration message on Friday in a Colorado town that he falsely claims has been overrun by criminal migrants, while Democrat Kamala Harris again targets voters in swing state Arizona.

The Republican will be in Aurora, scene of a viral video that has played on a loop in right-wing media showing armed Latinos rampaging through an apartment building.

The incident fueled sweeping, false narratives about the town in the Denver suburbs being terrorized by Latin American migrants -- fueling Trump´s election message that the United States is overrun by what he calls “savages” and “animals.”

Meanwhile Harris will keep campaigning in the West, home to much of the US Latino population, in hopes of clinching Arizona -- a state which President Joe Biden won in his defeat of Trump four years ago by a whisker.

She campaigned in Nevada and Arizona on Thursday and won support from popular former Democratic president Barack Obama at an event in Pennsylvania -- the biggest of the seven likely toss-up states.
