President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have sharpened their rhetoric against Donald Trump as the Republican presidential nominee has courted women voters — even while he still defends the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
Harris and Trump have built their weeks around targeting key voting blocs and visiting crucial swing states, as the race enters a 20-day sprint with no clear front-runner. With both candidates looking to ignite their stalled campaigns, as neither opens national or battleground leads outside polls’ margins of error, each has ramped up attacks on the other.
Team Harris has circled back to dire warnings about Trump threatening American democracy, using the federal government to punish his foes and being mostly interested in his own interests. The Trump camp, meanwhile, has seized on Harris medical records released by the White House to call on her to take a cognitive test and redoubled the contention that her policies would do little to pare illegal immigration.
