MILWAUKEE -
With the election just days away, Ms. Harris adopted an upbeat tone during an evening of musical performances and urged her supporters in Milwaukee, where early voting lags the balloting in other parts of the state, to "please get to it when you can."
The rally for Trump, who was returning to the site of his Republican coronation in July, had an entirely different tone. He used fear-mongering language about immigration, repeated his 2020 election lies, and lobbed insults at his political foes. He also suggested that Milwaukee's Greek-born basketball star Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is Black, seemed less Greek than Trump did, and spent several minutes erupting in frustration over a faulty microphone.
Yet the rallies were overshadowed by a fallout earlier in the day from Trump's latest use of violent language to describe his political opponents. Late on October 31 in Arizona, he suggested that former Representative Liz Cheney, one of his fiercest Republican critics, should be put somewhere "with nine barrels shooting at her."
As Ms. Harris began her day in Wisconsin at the Madison airport, she told reporters Trump's remarks "must be disqualifying."
