WASHINGTON _ President Donald Trump called California Sen. Kamala Harris "nasty" and the "meanest" member of the U.S. Senate shortly after Joe Biden named her as his running mate on the Democratic presidential ticket.
Trump said Harris was "extraordinarily nasty" in her questioning of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh during his Senate confirmation hearing, repeating a line of attack he has used against several other female opponents, including his 2016 rival, Hillary Clinton, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.
"I thought it was terrible for her, I thought it was terrible for our nation," Trump told reporters at a press briefing at the White House. "I thought she was the meanest, the most horrible, the most disrespectful of anybody in the U.S. Senate."
