Donald Trump said Saturday that President Joe Biden “hates” Vice President and Democratic presidential hopeful Kamala Harris because she “overthrew him” so she could run in the November election, seeking to divide Democrats ahead of their National Convention on Monday.
«Joe Biden hates her (Kamala Harris), okay? He hates her. It doesn’t matter if I go off the teleprompter for a second. He hates her because she brought him down (…) I spent $100 million campaigning against Biden. If I hadn’t debated him, he would still be running.”Trump added at an event with supporters in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.
The former president (filled an 8,000-seat venue in this city of about 45,000 inhabitants in a state – Pennsylvania – that will be crucial to the presidential aspirations of Trump himself and Kamala Harris.
According to an average of 24 polls updated by the political outlet The Hill, Harris now has 48.2% of support in Pennsylvania, while Trump receives 47.4% in this “swing state” where he suffered an assassination attempt last month.
Harris and her running mate, Tim Walz, will also be touring Pennsylvania on Sunday, mindful of its electoral importance, before the Democratic National Convention begins from Monday to Thursday in Chicago, Illinois.
“Harris is the most radical left-wing person who has ever run for public office (…) She will be easier to beat than Biden because he, I don’t know if he believes everything he does, but she is a true radical left-wing,” Trump continued.
This is Trump’s seventh visit to Pennsylvania this year and at least the fifth time he has held a rally in Wilkes-Barre since 2016. EFE
