Former President Donald Trump delivered a fiery speech at a campaign rally in Charlotte, North Carolina, where he attacked Vice President Kamala Harris as his “new victim to defeat” and labeled her the “most incompetent and far-left vice president in American history.” Trump accused Harris of deceiving the public about President Biden’s ability to run for a second term and criticized her positions on abortion and immigration.
Harris is expected to make abortion a key part of her campaign and has emphasized trusting women to make decisions about their own bodies. Trump’s rally in North Carolina showed his concern about keeping the state in his column for the upcoming election, as he also aims to win traditionally Democratic-leaning states like Minnesota.
Trump blamed Harris for the Biden administration’s failures, particularly regarding security along the U.S.-Mexico border. He pledged to conduct mass deportations with the help of local police and called Harris’s actions disqualifying for a presidential run.
While Trump has hedged on plans for a debate with Harris, she has been actively campaigning and seeking support, highlighting the choice between different visions for the nation. Harris, who aims to expand her coalition, has given voice to younger voters and historically black organizations.
The race for the presidency is heating up in North Carolina, which Trump narrowly won in previous campaigns, and both parties are working to secure the state’s support. With Harris poised to take Biden’s spot, Democrats are looking to make inroads in North Carolina, a state that has seen recent GOP dominance but also has a history of supporting Democratic candidates.
