As Chicago prepares for the Democratic Party Convention, the election campaign is intensifying in key states. Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris is clearly reacting to the recent rhetoric of her opponent Donald Trump.
During a campaign appearance in Rochester, in the swing state of Pennsylvania, she told hundreds of supporters on Sunday, without mentioning Trump by name: “Anyone who puts other people down is a coward.” Trump described Harris as a “radical.” in Pennsylvania on Saturday, Harris was called a “freak.”
“A kind of perversion”
“I think over the last few years there’s been a kind of perversion that says the power of a leader is measured by who he brings down,” Harris said.
Trump supporters fear that personal attacks could negatively impact the Republican’s election campaign.
The day before, the 78-year-old claimed during an appearance in Pennsylvania that he looked “way better” than Harris and called the 59-year-old a “socialist nutcase” with the “laugh of a crazy woman.”
Harris’ first sweep after numerous attacks
He described the current US administration under President Joe Biden and Vice President Harris as “dumb”. The Republican repeatedly makes headlines with such statements – contrary to the advice of allies to focus more on substantive criticism of the Democrats.
Harris, who is now taking Biden’s place, is touring the politically contested state of Pennsylvania by bus with her deputy, Tim Walz, to drum up votes. The Democratic duo are accompanied by husband and wife Doug Emhoff and Gwen Walz.
The four of them visited a campaign office, where aides called potential voters. Harris and her deputy also answered the phone.
Party conference in Chicago heralds a hot phase
Less than three months before the US presidential election, Democrats in Chicago are preparing the big stage for their presidential candidate Kamala Harris with a pompous nominating party conference.
Tens of thousands of people are expected to attend the four-day event, including celebrities such as former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton. The highlight of the program will be a speech by Harris on Thursday, officially accepting her candidacy. President Joe Biden will appear before the convention on Monday. After mounting pressure from within his own ranks, he decided not to run.
