Donald Trump says he saved the washing machine industry at Ohio rally

Donald Trump took aim at Joe Biden’s most recent gaffe during an Ohio rally where the former president said his successor is ‘confused’ and is ‘taking orders from the Easter Bunny.’

‘Our country is being destroyed, our country’s going to hell,’ Trump said to a crowd of thousands of supporters at the Delaware County Fairgrounds in central Ohio on Saturday evening.

We’ve never had anything like this and we have a president right now, sadly, who has absolutely no idea what the hell is happening,’ he continued of Biden. ‘He’s shaking hands with the air. He’s walking around, somewhat bewildered. I’d say – it’s no good. And taking orders from the Easter Bunny. You see that one?’

‘You know, the Easter Bunny was a political operative,’ Trump chuckled. ‘He did a good job, actually. We should hire that guy.’

Last week, a person dressed up as the Easter Bunny at the White House Easter Egg Roll was seen moving along a ‘confused’ Biden after he ‘wandered off’ to answer questions and take selfies with kids at the event.

Trump rambled about several topics during his more than hour-long rally 10 days before the Ohio primary election, including ranting about water pressure and claiming he saved the washing machine industry when he was in office.

He also claimed that the lack of credit he received on COVID vaccines was the fault of his public relations department and not his policies.

‘Now you look at the Biden administration was unable to get the tests done, they created unyielding and unsustainable and totally horrific mandates and radical mask regulations,’ Trump told his supporters.

‘And we did just the opposite and we had far better success in every single category – except for public relations,’ he admitted. ‘You know we were too busy working to think about public relations.’

He claimed that Biden’s team does ‘a lousy job except they have a fake news, a fake press’ that ‘report fake stories all day long’ to shield the current Democratic president.

When going into a rant about fake news, Trump said that he talks to his wife, former first lady Melania Trump, about how his rallies look on television – and mainly his hair.

He said that his wife is incredibly honest because she tells him that his hair doesn’t look good.

‘My wife calls me, ‘How was the crowd?’ I say – do we love our first lady, right?’ Trump started with a loud cheer from the crowd for Melania.

But I call up, I say, ‘So, how did it sound, how did it look on television, did I look good, was my hair in good shape?’ And, often times, you know she gives me, she says – I mean I had 87,000 people in Texas, I call, ‘How was it?’ he asks.

He said that she responds with, ‘You’re alright.’

‘Oh good. Alright, How did I look?’ Trump continued in a reenactment of a conversation with his wife.

‘Not good, the hair wasn’t good,’ Melanie would respond, according to the former president.

‘I say, ‘That’s not good.’ Now who would say that except somebody that’s very honest and, I think, loves you very much, right?’ he asked the crowd and was answered with more cheers and some laughter.

A separate rant on ‘fake news’ happened when Trump talked about the 2020 presidential election, which he continues to claim was stolen and rigged by Democrats.

He claimed that because the press doesn’t want to give the story air time, that two cameras turned off their lights when he promoted a new film allegedly exposing the fraud behind the 2020 election.

‘You remember, and I think just saw that Truth to Vote did a ballot harvesting operation, the likes of which has never been done in this country – took them almost a year. And they found corruption in the 20202 election, the likes of which nobody has ever seen.

‘That is a blockbuster movie and the press, the fake news will do everything – in fact, even now as I speak two of the lights just went off. Two lights just went off,’ Trump claimed of the camera on the media risers, which was met with major jeering from the thousands attending.

‘This is communism,’ the former president accused. ‘This is the beginning of communism. That’s when it starts – when you have no press. We have no press. Those two lights just went off – they don’t want to talk about it.’

The visit also comes just 10 days before Ohioans head to the polls to decide who will represent the parties in the House and Senate races – but no candidates will appear on the May 3 ballot for the State House as lawmakers remain unable to get a new district map passed
