During a recent campaign rally in Atlanta, former US President and 2024 Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump took aim at Vice President Kamala Harris' past as a prosecutor. Trump accused Harris of failing to arrest criminals, particularly those he described as the 'worst kind,' during her tenure as District Attorney of San Francisco and later as Attorney General of California.
Trump's remarks included claims that Harris neglected to pursue individuals accused of serious crimes, such as murderers, and allowed the state to deteriorate under her leadership. He also criticized California Governor Gavin Newsom, referring to him as 'Gavin Newscum' and attributing the state's issues to Harris' actions while in office.
According to Trump, Harris played a significant role in what he perceives as the decline of San Francisco and California, suggesting that her decisions as a prosecutor and attorney general contributed to the state's challenges. The former president's comments reflect his ongoing criticism of Harris and other Democratic officials, as he seeks to rally support for his own political ambitions.
