TRUMP'S LAST GAMBIT

Former president resorts to conspiracy theories as he pleads for votes

- CHRISTOPHER BUCKTIN

IN possibly his final act on the political stage, Donald Trump pleaded with voters to put him back in the White House as America goes to the polls.

Rallying supporters in the swing state of North Carolina, the former president delivered a trademark address, which included a torrent of conspiracy theories.

As the curtain came down on Mr Trump's campaign, the Mirror watched as he threw caution and facts to the wind, urging Americans to cast their votes for him in today's election as he took aim at what he described as the forces working against him.

He vowed to "fix" America, urging people to stop Democratic candidate Kamala Harris winning.

Republican Mr Trump said: "You have to stand up and tell Kamala that you've had enough.

"You're going to say, 'You've done a terrible job, you're grossly incompetent, we're not going to take it any more. Kamala, you're fired. Get the hell out of here."

He told the 7,000 crowd at the J.S. Dorton Arena in Raleigh that the election is his to lose.

GRABBING

Despite the momentum being with his opponent, Mr Trump said: "Hopefully, everything will work out well. We're way leading. All we have to do is close it out. If we get everybody out and vote, there's not a thing they can do."
