Donald Trump urges supporters to vote in the November midterm elections and warns them about staying away from the polls.
US President Donald Trump has urged his supporters to take the upcoming November midterm elections seriously.
Trump gave the warning while speaking to Republicans at the party’s midterm convention in Dallas, Texas. He also called on his supporters to encourage their friends and family to vote.
While leading the crowd in a pledge to vote, Trump made a striking statement.
“You know what happens if you don’t vote? You go to hell,” he told the crowd.
The comment came as Trump pushed Republicans to turn out in large numbers during the elections. He urged them to get more people involved and make sure their supporters show up on election day.
Trump also repeated his claims of electoral fraud against Democrats. He has continued to make such claims while rallying his supporters ahead of the elections.
At the Dallas event, the president also highlighted what he described as major achievements under his administration. He warned that a Democratic victory could reverse some of his policies.
Meanwhile, Vice President JD Vance also urged Republicans to stay focused ahead of the polls. Vance asked party members to protect their majorities in Congress.
The November midterm elections will decide several seats in the US Congress. Therefore, both Republicans and Democrats are expected to step up their campaigns as voting day gets closer.
For Trump and the Republican Party, getting supporters to vote will be a major priority. The president’s latest warning shows just how strongly he wants his supporters to turn out in.
