Atlanta, Georgia – Vice President Kamala Harris strongly criticized former President Donald Trump during a recent CNN town hall, labeling him as “unstable” and “unfit to serve.” Harris is focusing her message in the final weeks of the 2024 presidential race on warning Americans, especially undecided independents and moderate Republicans, about the potential threat Trump poses to the nation’s foundational principles.
During the town hall, Harris was asked whether she considered Trump to be a fascist, to which she responded affirmatively. She cited senior military leaders, such as Gen. Mark Milley and John Kelly, who have labeled Trump as a fascist. In her campaign, Harris pledges to bring “a new generation of leadership” to the White House, emphasizing that her administration would not be a mere continuation of President Joe Biden’s.
Harris addressed questions regarding her policy differences with Biden, asserting that her administration would bring fresh ideas and approaches to various issues. She highlighted her plans for expanding Medicare coverage for home health care for the elderly and stressed the importance of adopting new strategies for governance.
The vice president faced scrutiny from both CNN anchor Anderson Cooper and audience members regarding border security. She acknowledged the spike in illegal border crossings during the Biden administration and clarified that executive actions were deemed as temporary solutions. Harris emphasized the necessity of a bipartisan agreement in Congress to address long-term border security challenges.
Throughout the town hall, Harris presented herself as a candidate committed to implementing progressive policies and charting a new course for American leadership. As the 2024 presidential race intensifies, her sharp critiques of Trump and her proposals for change are central to her campaign strategy.
