Kamala Harris, on Saturday (Oct 26) told voters she would prosecute her political rival Donald Trump “in 10 days”.......KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE👈
Addressing a cheering crowd in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Harris told her supporters that before she was vice president, she was an attorney general and before that, she was a prosecutor, and in that role, she “took on perpetrators of all kinds — predators, fraudsters, and repeat offenders.”
“I took them on, and I won,” said the Democratic presidential election nominee.
“In 10 days, it’s Donald Trump’s turn,” said Harris to loud cheers.
Watch what she said here:
Her statement comes as former First Lady Michelle Obama voiced her “genuine fear” of a potential Donald Trump presidency.
During the rally on Saturday, Michelle Obama made a passionate appeal to voters to support Kamala Harris in the upcoming election.
Praising Harris, Obama said she would be an “extraordinary President of the United States”.
“My hope about Kamala is also accompanied by some genuine fear,” she said questioning, “Why is this race even close?” despite Trump’s controversial record.
“I’m a little angry,” she admitted.
“We are indifferent to his erratic behaviour, his obvious mental decline, his history as a convicted felon, a known slum lord, a predator found liable for sexual abuse.”
Emphasising the stakes, Obama warned that Trump’s return could jeopardise abortion rights, a key issue in Harris’s campaign platform.
“Please do not hand our fates over to the likes of Trump,” Obama said.
Meanwhile, Trump continued his assault on Harris, accusing her of promoting “open borders” and declaring, “She will destroy our country.”
“She’s a dope,” he said. “This person cannot be president.”
Campaigning hard in battleground states, Trump returned to anti-immigrant themes and argued he could “fix” what Harris had allegedly broken.
“She will destroy our country. Everyone knows it. No one respects her. The United States is now occupied country. Kamala broke it, we will fix it.”
Harris’s campaign, in contrast, focused on women’s health, particularly abortion rights, an area that has been contentious since the Supreme Court, shaped in part by Trump, overturned the national right to abortion in 2022.
“Because of Trump and what he did with the Supreme Court, we are looking at a health care crisis in America,” she told reporters.
This heightened election fever comes as over 38 million Americans have already cast early ballots ahead of the Nov 5 vote.
