Vice President Kamala Harris addressed a crowd of over 15,000 supporters in Detroit, Michigan, emphasizing the upcoming election as a significant battle. This rally followed President Biden's decision to suspend his re-election bid and endorse Harris as his successor. In a neighboring state, Wisconsin, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Harris' running mate, criticized former President Trump, accusing him of self-serving actions and weakening the country.
Trump, in response, labeled Harris and Walz as ultra-liberals, claiming they would lead the country towards communism. Despite this, Harris' choice of Walz over other moderate candidates like Gov. Josh Shapiro and Sen. Mark Kelly seemed to energize Trump's campaign. The announcement of Walz as the running mate resulted in a substantial fundraising boost of $36 million for the Harris campaign.
