DFL Statement on Trump’s Visit to Minnesota

SAINT PAUL, MINNESOTA – Today, Donald Trump announced his intention to hold an October 10 campaign rally in downtown Minneapolis, the heart of a county that he lost by 35 points in 2016.

Minnesota DFL Chairman Ken Martin released the following statement on Trump’s visit:

“Donald Trump has spent his presidency pursuing a trade war that’s devastating Minnesota farmers and a tax scam that gives breaks to the rich and powerful, paid for by cutting health care from Minnesota families. Trump’s record as a failed president was solidified long before he came under investigation for allegedly pressuring a foreign government to interfere in our elections.

“I’m confident Minnesota voters will continue to reject Donald Trump’s destructive agenda and divisive presidency.”
