Vice President Kamala Harris delivered a strong response to former President Donald Trump's recent attacks during a fundraiser in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. Harris denounced Trump's claims as 'wild lies' and characterized both him and his running mate, JD Vance, as 'plain weird'.
During the event, Harris emphasized her campaign's focus on freedom, particularly highlighting reproductive health and gun violence issues. She positioned her campaign as the 'underdog' in the race, rallying supporters to join her in the fight for the future.
Harris addressed the crowd, asserting that Trump's accusations were baseless and bizarre. She reiterated her commitment to gun safety measures, advocating for universal background checks, red flag laws, and an assault weapons ban.
One of the most impassioned moments of her speech came when she defended reproductive rights, vowing to oppose Trump's restrictive abortion policies. Harris emphasized the importance of trusting women to make decisions about their own bodies.
Furthermore, Harris highlighted the recent surge in financial support and volunteer engagement following President Joe Biden's decision not to seek reelection. She described this as 'momentum' for her people-powered campaign, despite acknowledging that they are the underdogs in the race.
With resounding applause from the audience, Harris concluded her speech by affirming her commitment to fighting for freedom and carrying the torch passed down by previous generations of Americans.
