Denounce Trump’s Racist Madison Square Garden Rally

Donald Trump’s recent rally at Madison Square Garden was a showcase of hatred and division, with speakers unleashing a torrent of racist, anti-immigrant, and anti-Puerto Rican rhetoric. The Trump campaign knew exactly who these speakers were before inviting them, making it clear that this event wasn’t a mistake—it was part of a deliberate strategy to stoke hate and fear.

During the rally, one speaker launched an anti-Black tirade, falsely blaming Black communities for rising crime and calling them “thugs.” Another speaker attacked immigrants, claiming that they were “invading” the U.S. and called for an end to legal immigration altogether. The rally also featured anti-Puerto Rican rhetoric, with speakers denigrating Puerto Rico’s recovery efforts and suggesting that the island should no longer receive federal disaster aid.

This kind of rhetoric is nothing new from Trump and his campaign. From his comments about “very fine people” in Charlottesville to calling African countries “shitholes,” Trump has a long history of promoting hatred toward marginalized groups. This rally is just the latest example of the racism, xenophobia, and cruelty that have become hallmarks of his political movement.

We cannot let this kind of hatred go unchecked. Sign this petition to denounce Donald Trump’s racist rally and demand that political leaders of all parties condemn these dangerous, divisive messages. The time to push back against hate is now—before it spreads even further.
