Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign has responded to former President Donald Trump’s recent statement regarding his absence from the campaign trail. Trump cited his lead in the polls as the reason for not actively campaigning, stating that he is allowing the Democratic National Convention to proceed without interference.
The upcoming Democratic National Convention, scheduled to commence on August 19, is anticipated to be closely contested based on the latest polling data.
In a statement issued by the Harris-Walz 2024 campaign, spokesperson James Singer highlighted the contrast in campaign strategies between the two parties. Singer emphasized that Vice President Harris and Governor Walz are actively engaging with voters in swing states, advocating for the interests of the middle class, and working to secure every vote.
The campaign's core message revolves around the values that unite Americans, such as opportunity, freedom, and patriotism. The statement further criticized Trump for his perceived lack of effort in campaigning, accusing him of prioritizing self-interest over the needs of the American people.
According to the campaign, Trump's absence from swing states and his reluctance to engage in active campaigning reflect a lack of dedication to the responsibilities of the presidency. The Harris-Walz 2024 team appears undeterred by Trump's approach, expressing confidence in their own campaign strategy and commitment to representing the diverse interests of the American populace.
