At the rally, Trump repeatedly attacked his political opponents, including President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. He also repeated his false claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him.
The crowd at the rally was enthusiastic and supportive of Trump. Many people in the crowd wore Trump merchandise and waved Trump flags. They cheered and chanted Trump's name throughout the rally.
Some people in the crowd expressed concern about Trump's legal troubles. However, most people at the rally said that they would continue to support Trump, regardless of the charges against him.
One woman at the rally said, "Who else would we support? He's the only one who's fighting for us."
Another woman said, "I don't care what the charges are. He's our president."
The rally in Montgomery is a sign that Trump still has a strong base of support among GOP voters in Alabama. It remains to be seen whether Trump will be convicted of the charges against him, but it is clear that he is still a popular figure among many Republicans in the state.
