During his speech to a small crowd of supporters in Dalton, anti-ICE protesters holding signs disrupted the event. According to the Guardian, Trump supporters, including a man wearing a yellow Gadsden flag as a cape, forced the protesters out of the crowd. Two of the signs denounced the idea of sending ICE officers to voting locations on election day. [1]

msnbc.com and PBS NewsHour reported that Georgia has long been a center of Trump's election fraud claims. The visit comes while early voting is underway and follows a visit to the state by the vice president two days earlier, according to msnbc.com. [2][5]

The Washington Examiner reported that Trump scheduled the rally in Whitfield County to support Representative Mike Collins in his campaign to unseat incumbent Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff. Trump landed at Dobbins Air Reserve Base in Cobb County before traveling to the rally. [7]
