Kamala Harris and rapper Lizzo delivered a straightforward message at one of Detroit's high school gyms on Saturday as early voting got underway: casting early ballots is the most effective method to prevent Donald Trump from winning back office.
Also, on Saturday, retired NFL player Antonio Brown traveled to Pennsylvania to support former President Trump. A jubilant mob welcomed him back to the city as he "looks to make a positive difference."

Reaction To Lizzo
During her speech, Lizzo said, "If Kamala wins, the whole country will be like Detroit." Social media users have not taken this comment lightly, with many calling the city of Detroit 'a rundown city of demolished infrastructure' and Lizzo 'a dummy.'
No, we don't want to whole country to be a rundown city of demolished infrastructure you dummy.
