Story summary

On Friday night in Syracuse, New York, President Donald Trump held a rally to campaign for Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman against incumbent Governor Kathy Hochul. During the event, Trump joked that former boxing champion Mike Tyson was there as personal security for Blakeman due to his imposing presence and stature. Trump also invited Tyson on stage to address the crowd alongside him.

Trump emphasized support for Republicans in New York, aiming to flip the state red in November's midterm elections by promising lower taxes, cheaper energy prices, and stricter immigration policies if Blakeman wins. He criticized Governor Hochul, claiming that under her leadership, New York has released over 48,000 criminal illegal aliens with convictions for crimes including assaults, robberies, and violent offenses.

The rally highlighted Trump's endorsement of other Republican candidates like Kailee Buller and Anthony Constantino in congressional races across the state. He vowed direct support from Washington if Blakeman is elected governor, pledging to address issues such as crime and energy costs promptly by being available within 24 hours should Blakeman need assistance.
