Former President Donald Trump's efforts to appeal to New York, a blue state, continued on Wednesday with a large-scale rally in Long Island -- Trump's second rally in the state on top of the multiple campaign stops he did in between his court appearances for his New York civil fraud trial.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump claimed he was being targeted by “radical left” forces and vowed to campaign with renewed purpose at his first full-fledged campaign rally since an alleged second assassination attempt on Sunday.
