He noted that the rally, attended by \u200bthousands and featuring notable Republican figures, represented a high\u2064 point in Trump\u2019s campaign. Marcano highlighted the media\u2019s reaction, \u200cparticularly criticism of a comedian&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/adam-carolla-assembles-star-studded-guest-list-for-new-edgy-comedy-show-truth-yeller\/\" title=\"Adam Carolla Assembles Star-Studded Guest List For New, Edgy Comedy Show, \u2018Truth Yeller\u2019\">controversial joke<\/a> about Puerto \u200cRico, as missing the broader\u2063 appeal of Trump\u2019s message, which resonates with many \u2064supporters who appreciate his defiance against mainstream narratives.<\/p>\n<p>Marcano\u2062 argued that the media portrayal of Trump\u2019s base as <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">predominantly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/past-the-point-of-no-return-iowa-dems-feel-hopes-fading\/\" title=\"&#039;Past the Point of No Return&#039;? Iowa Dems Feel Hopes Fading\">white working class<\/a> overlooks<\/a> the diversity of his support, suggesting that he could attract significant percentages of Black\u200b and Hispanic votes. He expressed \u200cskepticism about Harris&#8217; campaign strategies targeting these groups, indicating\u2064 that Trump&#8217;s diverse appeal may pose a \u200d<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/bibis-last-hurrah-irans-largest-warship-reduced-to-flaming-wreckage-as-pm-faces-ousting\/\" title=\"Bibi\u2019s Last Hurrah?

On &ldquo;2Way TONIGHT,&rdquo; host Mark Halperin introduced Marcano to the panel, asking his thoughts on Trump&rsquo;s campaign with less than 10 days until Election Day.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I actually think the rally on [Sunday] was arguably the high point of his campaign. I&rsquo;ve actually been amused by how the mainstream media has covered this. This was Trump in concert, and he won the day &mdash; which is everything he wants to do,&rdquo; Marcano said.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The outrage over the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/comedian-tony-hinchcliffe-fires-back-harris-campaign-attacked-trump-rally-jokes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tony Hinchcliffe<\/a> Puerto Rico joke misses the point because Hinchcliffe, if you know his work, he pushes boundaries, and he&rsquo;s given the middle finger to left by telling the woke crowd, &lsquo;I&rsquo;ll say whatever I want to say in my concert performances, and you can&rsquo;t touch me,&rsquo;&rdquo; Marcano added. &ldquo;And that&rsquo;s a message that resonates with a lot of people, especially in the bro culture.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Following the Madison Square Garden rally, fellow guest and comedian Tony Hinchcliffe faced significant backlash from corporate media and Democrats over his joke comparing Puerto Rico to a &ldquo;floating island of garbage.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p> <script type=\"text\/javascript\"> \t\t\tif ( getCookie( \"ff_subbed\" ) ) { \t\t\t\tdocument.getElementById(\"stnvideo\").remove() \t\t\t} \t\t<\/script> <\/p>\n<p>Marcano went on to say that the media&rsquo;s portrayal of Trump&rsquo;s campaign as appealing primarily to &ldquo;the white working class&rdquo; is inaccurate, suggesting that the former president may have the &ldquo;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/video-gas-station-shows-candidate-black-voters-prefer-choice-terrify-kamala-harris\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">most diverse base<\/a>&rdquo; this election cycle.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Lastly, the media keeps writing that this is Trump appealing to the white working class, worried about their future in the American society that&rsquo;s starting to [become] increasingly brown. What that really misses is the biggest point, and that is Trump is building, for a Republican presidential candidate, the most diverse base, the most diverse group of voters of any Republican candidate in history,&rdquo; Marcano continued.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;He&rsquo;s going to get 15 percent of the black vote at least. If he gets that much, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/11th-hour-desperation-kamala-campaign-officially-targeting-young-sons\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Harris<\/a> is sunk. It looks like he&rsquo;s going to get as many women votes as he did in 2020,&rdquo; Marcano said. &ldquo;He&rsquo;s going to get 40 percent of the Hispanic vote. I don&rsquo;t want Trump to win. I don&rsquo;t think he&rsquo;d be good for America, good for the world, good for anybody. But if this were a football game, he&rsquo;s in the red zone.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Since early October, pundits have warned of Trump pulling support from Harris&rsquo; key voting blocs, particularly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/devastating-demographic-shift-shows-hispanic-voters-leaving-harris-flocking-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hispanic<\/a> and black men. In efforts to appeal to these groups, Harris&rsquo; campaign has released targeted ads, created&nbsp;specific policies, and enlisted former President Barack Obama to engage voters.<\/p>\n<p>However, following Obama&rsquo;s first rally in Pennsylvania with the vice president, he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/deeply-offended-voter-tears-obama-apart-front-msnbc-host-slams-ex-president-scolding-black-men\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">faced backlash for scolding<\/a> undecided voters, especially black men. Harris&rsquo; ad aimed at men also received criticism for its focus on so-called &ldquo;real men.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<div class=\"disclaimer\">\n<p><em>All content created by the Daily Caller News Foundation, an independent and nonpartisan newswire service, is available without charge to any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/union-membership-plummets-to-record-low\/\" title=\"Union Membership Plummets to Record Low\">legitimate news publisher<\/a> that can provide a large audience.

On Sunday, a large crowd of Trump supporters filled the venue to hear him speak alongside notable Republicans like Vivek Ramaswamy, Tulsi Gabbard, and Tucker Carlson. During the show &#8220;2Way TONIGHT,&#8221; host Mark Halperin asked Marcano for his perspective on Trump&#8217;s campaign with less than ten days until Election Day. Marcano expressed that he believed the rally was a peak moment for Trump\u2019s campaign and criticized mainstream media coverage, stating it showcased Trump effectively connecting with his audience. He also commented on comedian Tony Hinchcliffe&#8217;s controversial joke about Puerto Rico, arguing that it highlighted Hinchcliffe&#8217;s boundary-pushing style and resonated with many people in certain cultural circles. Following the rally, Hinchcliffe faced backlash from media and Democrats for his remarks. Additionally, Marcano challenged the narrative that Trump&#8217;s support base is primarily white working-class voters, suggesting instead that he may have one of the most diverse voter bases among Republican candidates in history. He predicted significant support from Black voters and noted concerns for Vice President Kamala Harris as she attempts to engage key demographics through targeted ads and policies amid challenges following Barack Obama&#8217;s recent campaigning efforts<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2361068,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Kass-Working-Feature-Image.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[6430,3685,6794,42641,35890],"class_list":["post-2361067","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-anti-trump","tag-democrats","tag-journalist","tag-madison-square-garden","tag-reality-check"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Kass-Working-Feature-Image.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2361067","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2361067"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2361067\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2361068"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2361067"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2361067"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2361067"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
