IN possibly his final act on the political stage, Donald Trump pleaded with voters to put him back in the White House as America goes to the polls.

Trump's Last Gambit

Rallying supporters in the swing state of North Carolina, the former president delivered a trademark address, which included a torrent of conspiracy theories.

As the curtain came down on Trump's campaign, he threw caution - and facts - to the wind, urging Americans to cast their votes for him in today's election as he took aim at what he described as the forces working against him.

He vowed to "fix" America, urging people to stop Democratic candidate Kamala Harris winning.

Republican Trump said: "You have to stand up and tell Kamala that you've had enough.

"You're going to say, "You've done a terrible job, you're grossly incompetent, we're not going to take it any more.

"Kamala, you're fired. Get the hell out of here"." He told the 7000 crowd at the JS Dorton Arena in Raleigh that the election is his to lose.

Despite the momentum being with his opponent, Trump said: "Hopefully, everything will work out well. We're way leading. All we have to do is close it out.

"If we get everybody out and vote, there's not a thing they can do." H He also seemed to reference the infamous Access Hollywood tape, which almost cost him the 2016 election.

On the tape he boasted about "grabbing" women intimately without consent.
