ATLANTA – Former President Donald Trump and his running mate JD Vance are heading to Atlanta this weekend for their first joint rally in the state.
The Republican Party candidates are scheduled to hold a rally at the Georgia State University Convocation Center on Saturday, Aug. 3.
Trump and Vance’s visit will happen days after Vice President Kamala Harris is set to hold a rally at the same location on Tuesday night – her first since President Joe Biden’s decision to drop out of the 2024 presidential race.
The vice president will be joined by hip-hop artist Megan The Stallion at her rally.
In the release announcing the rally, the Trump campaign referred to the death of Laken Riley, the Georgia nursing student who was killed this year on the campus of the University of Georgia. A Venezuelan immigrant was arrested and charged with her murder.
Trump had previously mentioned Riley during his speech accepting the Republican Party’s presidential nomination.
Describing Riley as a “brilliant 22-year-old nursing student,” Trump placed the blame for Riley’s death on Biden, Harris, and the rest of the Democratic Party.
“Yet another American life was stolen by a criminal alien set free by this administration,” Trump told the crowd at the RNC. “Tonight, America, this is my vow. I will not let these killers and criminals into our country.”
Trump and Vance’s rally will begin at 5 p.m. Doors open at 1 p.m. You can sign up for free tickets here.
