Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump spoke at a rally in Wisconsin, a battleground state that could decide the election, as he tries to solidify support in a key part of his support base: working-class and rural whites.

The former president has seen his support erode among most demographic groups since his Democratic rival in the Nov. 5 election, Vice President Kamala Harris, replaced President Joe Biden atop the Democratic ticket over the summer.

"The whole thing is a con job. She got in, she was last. They had 22 people or something running. How Biden won, I will never know it. To me it's one of the greatest miracles. To me, it's a great miracle. But how the hell did that guy win? But he won and he got in this one. He got 14 million votes. She got no votes. And then they put her in anyway. The bosses put her in because she's controlled by them, but she will be the worst president. He is the worst president in history. She will be worse than him. She will be worse than him. And Trump is never wrong. I am never, ever wrong," Trump said.

Trump took to the podium in Mosinee, a town of about 4,500 people near Wausau, a small city of about 40,000, but hours from the state's major population centers, namely Milwaukee and Madison.

With just days to go before his first and likely only debate against Vice President Kamala Harris, former President Donald Trump posted a warning on his social media site threatening to jail those “involved in unscrupulous behavior” this election, which he said would be under intense scrutiny.

Trump’s message represents his latest threat to use the office of the presidency to exact retribution if he wins a second term. There is no evidence of the kind of fraud he continues to insist marred the 2020 election; in fact, dozens of courts, Republican state officials and his own administration have said he lost fairly.
