Criticism of Donald Trump
Harris made headlines by criticizing Trump’s stance on the sensitive issue of abortion and his Supreme Court appointments, which contributed to the overturning of Roe vs. Wade. While discussing this topic, MAGA supporters began shouting, “You lie, you lie!” Harris paused for a moment before replying, “Oh you guys are at the wrong rally!” This response prompted laughter and applause from the audience.
Importance of Wisconsin in the Elections
Wisconsin is one of the seven critical swing states that could determine the outcome of the upcoming presidential election. Harris’s rally in La Crosse aimed to connect with the state’s residents while addressing important issues.
Appeal to Female Voters
At a different rally, Harris focused on female voters, arguing that Trump “has no idea” about women’s healthcare. She contested Trump’s claim that “everybody did not want Roe vs. Wade overturned,” saying, “Women are dying of sepsis because they did not get the healthcare they need. It just gets more unbelievable sometimes. And now the man calls himself the ‘father of IVF.’ I mean, what does that even mean?”
