“Strange old man” and “crazy liberal”, the beginning of the war of words between Harris and Trump

U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris described herself as the winning candidate in the presidential election and her Republican rival Donald Trump as a “weird old man,” while Trump called Harris a “crazy liberal.” And a verbal war broke out between these two candidates for the US presidential election.

According to Asharq Al-Awsat, the exchange of words comes after a stormy week in which Harris rose to the top of the Democratic Party nomination list after Joe Biden (81) dropped his bid for a second term. He gave up under the growing pressure of the Democrats.

According to what Reuters reported, a series of polls show that the entry of Harris into the race destroyed Trump’s lead over Biden within a few days. His use of the word “weird” to describe his opponents is part of the Democrats’ new strategy. The Harris campaign described Trump as “very old and weird” after he appeared on Fox News on Thursday, and at least one Harris supporter showed up at an event on Saturday holding a sign that read: Trump is abnormal. .

Harris, as he has done during a series of campaign events over the past few days, once again compared his record as a prosecutor to that of Trump as a criminal, saying his effort is about the future. While Trump wants to return the country to the dark past.

Hours later, Trump launched a barrage of attacks during a rally in St. Cloud, Minnesota, on issues ranging from public safety to immigration. Trump said: “If a crazy liberal like Kamala Harris gets into power, the American dream will die.” Harris is worse than Biden.

He described Biden’s decision to abandon his presidential candidacy as a coup organized by the Democratic Party.
