2024 White House Race: Contrasting Closing Arguments From Harris, Trump

Closing arguments in the Trump Organization civil fraud trial, in New York

As the 2024 race for the White House enters its final days, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are making their closing arguments to voters with starkly different styles and messages.

With just four days until Election Day, both candidates are focusing on key battleground states, particularly in the Great Lakes region where Harris sees a clear pathway to victory.

Former President Trump's campaign has been marked by a mix of violent imagery and divisive rhetoric, with his latest inflammatory remarks targeting GOP former Wyoming representative Liz Cheney. Trump's use of aggressive language has drawn criticism, with Cheney accusing him of undermining democratic values.

In contrast, Vice President Harris has been highlighting Trump's divisive rhetoric and focusing on a message of unity and progress. She has been warning voters about the dangers of a second Trump presidency while emphasizing that there is a better way forward.

Trump's campaign strategy appears to be aimed at energizing his base and rallying low-propensity voters through aggressive language and personal attacks. Meanwhile, Harris is reaching out to a broader coalition of voters, including celebrity supporters like Jennifer Lopez and Cardi B, to boost turnout in key states.

Both candidates are crisscrossing battleground states like Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania in a final push to secure crucial electoral votes. With seven states still up for grabs and razor-thin margins in play, the race remains highly competitive and unpredictable as Election Day approaches.
