Harris on Trump: “Bully,” He Calls Her “Crazy”

The campaign for the US presidential election is starting to heat up with verbal altercations that, as is often the case, transcend content and gain momentum after two weeks in which everything from the Trump-Biden debate, which was a shock to Democrats, to attacks on Trump himself right up to Biden’s departure.

Kamala Harris, after also receiving an endorsement (not too convincing according to some analysts) from Barack Obama, acknowledges that Democrats must chase, but is also convinced that the wind is currently blowing in her sails, even if she defines herself as an “outsider,” that is, a competitor who is not the favorite but who manages to defy projections.

“We have a fight ahead of us, and we’re not the favorites in this race, but this is a people-based campaign, and now we have momentum,” Harris said at a fundraising event in Massachusetts. Harris picked up on Biden’s dialectic, explaining that the tycoon is a danger to democracy and that he would jeopardize many fundamental rights, adding a term that winks at the minorities she wants to represent: “He’s a bully.” The new likely candidate also explained that she wants to have a debate as soon as possible, a discussion that Trump declines as long as she is not officially registered as candidate.

Trump, for his part, explained: “This November, the American people will win a great victory by rejecting the insane liberal extremism of Kamala Harris.” At a rally in Minnesota, the former president once again raised the tone, calling Harris a “crazy left-wing radical.” The topics he has focused on are positions on fracking (an invasive method of shale oil extraction), judicial reform, and the hottest topic for his constituents – immigration. Trump reiterated the fact that his defeat in 2020, when he lost the race to Joe Biden, was due to election fraud.
