Key Moments From Donald Trump's Nevada Rally

Donald Trump held another rally on Saturday night, this time stumping for Nevada Republicans.

The former president rallied in Minden near Lake Tahoe to shore up support for Senate candidate Adam Laxalt and gubernatorial candidate Joe Lombardo.

Trump spoke for about 90 minutes, with many of his remarks centered on himself.

During his speech, he bragged about the size of the crowd he drew on January 6th and suggested the Department of Justice may prosecute President Joe Biden's son Hunter as a pretext to prosecuting him.

Here, Newsweek has rounded up some key moments.

'Immediate negotiation'

Trump warned of World War III if Ukraine did not negotiate with Russia.

It came days after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky formally ruled out talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin following his decision to illegally annex four regions of Ukraine.

"We must demand the immediate negotiation of a peaceful end to the war in Ukraine," Trump said.

"Or we will end up in World War III and there will be nothing left of our planet all because stupid people didn't have a clue, they didn't have a clue. They don't understand, they really don't understand."

'Biggest crowd I've ever seen'

Trump spoke of the large number of his supporters who gathered in Washington, D.C. on January 6, 2021, after he spent weeks pushing baseless claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him.

"You know the biggest crowd I've ever seen?" Trump told supporters at the rally. "January 6th. And you never hear that. They were there largely to protest a corrupt and rigged and stolen election."

After listening to Trump speak, many Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol in a bid to disrupt Congress' certification of Biden's victory.

Trump was impeached for a historic second time for his role in the incident but was acquitted by the Senate.

California's 'broken' grid

Trump attacked California, saying the state's energy grid was "broken."

"Look at their energy policies. Everybody has to have an electric car, and we don't have electricity to turn on an air conditioner now in California," Trump said.

"They write a letter, 'please don't use your air conditioning.' And then they want to send millions and millions of cars onto a grid that's broken."

California's power grid operator had warned during a recent heat wave that the grid could become too strained and urged Californians to avoid energy use during peak hours to avoid blackouts. Gov. Gavin Newsom said the state ultimately avoided rolling blackouts.

Trump also attacked what he called California's "barbaric" sanctuary state policies. "The radical Democrats want to turn America into one giant sanctuary for dangerous criminal aliens," he said.

'Charade'

Amid reports that Hunter Biden could soon be charged with a number of crimes, Trump speculated that it is actually a "charade" to justify targeting him.

"They're leaking that a couple of minor charges, a couple of minor charges relatively, compared to the kind of charges that they could be and that's up to them, but are they actually going to do the right thing and hold the Bidens accountable?" Trump said.

"Or is this just charade and an excuse to continue targeting me and our movement of Make America Great Again and America First? I don't know."

He added: "I think they want to target us, and they make it look a little bit more fair when they throw out a couple of charges about Hunter."
