Vice President Kamala Harris plans to criticize former President Donald Trump on Tuesday. She will describe him as “unstable” and obsessed with “revenge.” Harris will speak near the White House, the same place where Trump rallied supporters before the 2021 Capitol attack. Meanwhile, Trump downplays criticism of a recent New York rally, calling it a “love fest,” and claims that Harris spreads hate and division.
Tight Race with One Week Left
With one week until Election Day, Harris, 60, and Trump, 78, are in a close race. It has become one of the most unpredictable presidential contests in history. Over 50 million people have already voted, either early or by mail. This number represents nearly a third of the total turnout from four years ago.
“A President for All Americans”
In her speech, Harris will promise to be a “president for all Americans.” She will contrast herself with Trump, whom she accuses of seeking unchecked power. Harris plans to say, “This is someone who is unstable, obsessed with revenge, consumed with grievance, and out for unchecked power.” She will add, “But America, I am here tonight to say: that’s not who we are.”
Large Crowd Expected at Historic Location
Harris’s rally is expected to attract over 50,000 attendees to the Ellipse park. This is where Trump delivered a fiery speech before his supporters marched on the Capitol to challenge Joe Biden’s victory. The January 6 riot injured 140 police officers and created chaos across the nation.
Trump Dismisses Harris’s Criticism
Trump holds his own event at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida to counter Harris’s speech. His response comes amid controversy over a New York rally where a comedian made offensive remarks about Puerto Rico. Trump defends the event, calling it a “love fest,” the same term he used for the Capitol riot. He accuses Harris of spreading “hate and division.”
J-Lo Joins Harris for Final Campaign Push
Harris will visit key battleground states in the final days of the campaign. Her campaign announced that singer Jennifer Lopez will join her in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Thursday. They aim to energize young and Latino voters.
