Trump criticized Jewish Democrats during his Pennsylvania rally, repeating a refrain he has previously emphasized.
“Any Jewish person that votes for her or a Democrat has to go out and have their head examined,” Trump said. “Because if you see what’s happening with Israel and Jewish people right now, there has never been, there has never been a more dangerous time since the Holocaust if you happen to be Jewish in America.”

As he closed out his speech, Walz urged the crowd to stay enthusiastic through Election Day. “Look, over the next 80 days, Vice President Harris and I will be across this country,” he told the attendees, adding that they need to “work hard. We can sleep when we’re dead.”
“We need each and every one of you. We do nothing alone. We need you on the team on Nov. 5,” Walz continued. “At the end of that day, when the ballots close across this country. I want to know, and you want to know, we left it all on the field.”

In his remarks, Walz brings up the notion of freedom, blasting modern Republicans, saying: “When they talk about freedom, they mean the government should be free to invade your exam room, or that corporations should be free to pollute the air and water; banks should be free to take advantage of the least fortunate.”
He continued, “Look, in Minnesota, we respect our neighbors and their personal choices,” before adding what has become one of Walz’s signature lines on the campaign trail: “We live by the golden rule, and that golden rule is, mind your own damn business.”
The vice presidential nominee appealed directly to “old school libertarian, Republican Nebraskan[s],” telling them, “this is the ticket for you.”
He added, “The traditional Republican party before Donald Trump, contributed much to this state and this great nation, but he’s not that today.”

Aubrianna Faustman, a former high school geography student of Walz’s, introduced him at the Nebraska rally.
Faustman was taught by Walz and his wife, Gwen, who taught her English.
As he took the stage, Walz thanked Aubrey, telling the crowd: “There’s nothing as a teacher that makes you prouder than to see the success of one of your former students and to have Aubrey here. So thank you, Aubrey.”
