Vice President Kamala Harris addressed chants from audience members at her rally in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, on Wednesday, regarding former President Donald Trump's legal troubles. Harris emphasized that the courts would handle Trump's legal issues and urged Democrats to focus on defeating him in the upcoming election.
During her speech, Harris highlighted her experience as a prosecutor and district attorney in California, contrasting it with Trump's legal challenges. She pointed out Trump's felony charges for falsifying business records and his loss in a civil suit filed by E. Jean Carroll, who accused him of sexual assault.
Harris expressed familiarity with individuals like Trump throughout her career, garnering cheers from the audience. However, when some attendees began chanting 'lock him up,' Harris intervened to redirect the focus. She clarified that her priority was winning the election in November and emphasized that Trump's legal matters should be handled through the judicial system.
Responding to the chants, Harris stated, 'the courts are going to handle that part of it. What we're going to do is beat him in November,' prompting another round of applause from the crowd.
