Former President Donald Trump made his final campaign stop in Pittsburgh Monday night in the eve of the 2024 election.
Rallying supporters one final time in the crucial battleground, Trump touched on numerous issues. During his speech, Trump mentioned his love and support of Penn State wrestling when discussing immigration.
At his rally, Trump suggested that PSU wrestlers wrestle ‘nasty’ migrants.
“Oh, those Penn State guys, I wanted them to wrestle the migrants,” Trump said at PPG Paints Arena.
Trump: Those Penn state guys, I wanted them to wrestle the migrants. I told the Dana White. I told him to set up his league of champions and a migrant league. I want the migrant to go against the champion. I think migrant might win. That’s how nasty some are pic.twitter.com/4vwwSXSUQz

Trump visited Penn State Oct. 26 and was joined on stage by past and current Penn State wrestlers.
“You know the UFC and Dana White? I told Dana to set up your league of champions,” Trump jokingly said. “Unbelievable, the best fighters in the world, and a migrant league.

“At the end, I want the migrant to go against the champion, and I think the migrant might actually win, that’s how nasty some of these guys are. But I don’t know, I doubt that. I felt very comfortable with those big Penn State wrestlers.”
The 2024 election is Tuesday, Nov. 5.
