e so much, I'll be there within 24 hours, Bruce. 

With Blakeman in the governor's mansion, the president declared that  within two months you'll go from a high crime city to almost no crime at all - just like I did in Washington D.C., Memphis and New Orleans. 



Trump also raked Hochul over the coals on the high cost of electricity in the state - and said Blakeman would bring prices down by up to  90%. 

 Your energy bills are the highest in the nation. I hate to tell you that,  Trump said.  And when Bruce gets in, you're going to go from the highest in the nation, I believe, to among the lowest in the nation - because he's going to tap into your oil. 

 You are sitting on some of the greatest oil reserves anywhere in the world, and you're not allowed to touch it,  he continued.

 If Bruce Blakeman gets in, he will cut your electric bills by 70%, 80% and 90%. 



The rally was held at the Syracuse OneCenter, a massive convention center in the middle of the city.

At the top of his remarks, the president fired up the crowd, saying it's great to be back in upstate New York.

 Here we are, not far from the shores of Lake America,  he said to wild applause of the renaming of Lake Ontario.



Joining Trump aboard Air Force One for the Syracuse trip were boxing legend Mike Tyson and New York Yankees President Randy Levine.



 He's a very dangerous person actually,  Trump bragged of Tyson.

Energy Secretary Chris Wright, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin and New York GOP Reps. Claudia Tenney and Nick Langworthy also traveled with Trump on the presidential plane.

Ahead of the president's speech, Blakeman warmed up the crowd by pledging that New York would be opened up to fracking and cease being a  sanctuary state  if elected.

 We've got to tap into that Marcellus Shale. It's drill baby drill,  Blakeman said.

The Nassau County executive slammed Hochul as  the most pro-criminal governor in America  and said Albany policies like cashless bail and sanctuary cities are  all designed to let criminals get out and suffer no consequences for committing crimes in our communities. 

He also blamed Hochul for Thursday's ICE shooting in the Bronx for allowing  illegal migrants with criminal records to prey on the people of our state,  Blakeman said.

 He tried to run the ICE agents over,  Blakeman continued.  Kathy Hochul, we're outraged that you would let this guy into our state and defend him. 

Blakeman received thunderous applause when he vowed to sign an executive action declaring,  New York is no longer a sanctuary state,  if he beats Hochul.
