Donald Trump says "Thanksgiving should be immediately abolished" about Wisconsin candidate

At a Wednesday rally in Las Vegas, President Trump attacked Francesca Hong, a Korean American democratic socialist running in Wisconsin’s gubernatorial primary, without naming her, accusing her of communism and calling her dangerous and mentally unstable. Trump cited Hong’s deleted social media posts from 2020–21, in which she suggested ending Thanksgiving over colonial harms and argued police served racial domination and should be defunded and disbanded. Hong, a state assembly member who has since moderated those statements, says she would not cancel Thanksgiving or defund police. She faces the state’s Democratic primary Tuesday. Trump also criticized Abdul El-Sayed, Michigan’s Democratic Senate nominee, saying El-Sayed hates Jews and Israel.
