Kamala Harris On Tuesday, when she delivers her concluding election argument, Kamala Harris will urge Americans to turn the page on Donald Trump. She will do so in the location where her rival gathered supporters prior to the attack on the US Capitol on January 6, 2021.
The Democratic vice president’s campaign stated that she chose the symbolic location to promote her argument that the Republican former president is a threat to American democracy, despite polls showing a dead heat exactly one week before Election Day.
However, a senior campaign official stated that Harris will also deliver an “optimistic and hopeful” message in the face of party rumors that she is focusing too much on Trump and not enough on her own policies.
She will speak to approximately 20,000 people at the Ellipse, a park outside the White House where Trump gave a ferocious speech in which he intensified his false assertions that he won the 2020 election.
After that, supporters of Trump staged a march on the Capitol in an effort to prevent the certification of Joe Biden’s victory. The assault resulted in at least five deaths and 140 injuries to police officers.
The former prosecutor would make a “major closing argument” and “make the case that it is time to turn the page on Trump and chart a new way forward,” according to a statement from Harris’s campaign.
Trump, who is the oldest presidential candidate in US history at 78, will attempt to lessen the impact of Harris’s big event by giving remarks at his Florida resort, Mar-a-Lago.
After that, he will hold a rally in Allentown, Pennsylvania, which is home to working-class residents and is thought to be the most important of the seven battleground states that are expected to decide the election.
Over the weekend, Trump delivered his concluding remarks at a massive rally held at New York’s Madison Square Garden. During the event, some of the other speakers made use of language that was widely regarded as sexist and racist.
Fears of disorder The race for the White House in 2024 has already been one of the most contentious in recent history. Harris and Trump offer two very different visions for a nation that is deeply divided, and they are at a complete deadlock.
Trump has indicated that he may once more refuse to accept the outcome if he loses this year’s election, raising fears of a repeat of the chaos of 2014.
Steve Bannon, Trump’s former advisor, was released from prison on Tuesday for refusing to testify to Congress about the January 6 assault. Since the influential right-wing podcaster went to jail on July 1, a lot has changed.
Trump has survived two attempts to kill him, and Harris has taken Biden’s place at the top of the Democratic Party after Biden abruptly left.
While increasingly focusing on Trump’s harsh rhetoric regarding migrants and stance on abortion, the vice president has pledged that the United States will “not go back” to him.
Harris is expected to repeat her recent statements that she would have a “to-do list” to lower American costs while Trump would focus on an “enemies list” if he returns to the White House.
The campaign describes the White House as a symbol of presidential power and unity, so the first female, Black, and Asian American vice president of the United States will heavily rely on images of being within sight of it.
She will, however, also try to bring back memories of the troubled period surrounding the riot on January 6, 2021, when Trump’s refusal to accept the results of the election brought the nation to the brink of civil unrest.
Only 30% of Americans, according to a CNN poll conducted on Monday, believe that Trump would accept a defeat this time around, while 73% believe that Harris would.
During the final week of the election, Harris’s campaign stated that she would take her Ellipse speech message on the road to the battleground states. In the final days before November 5, both candidates will continue their punishing schedule, sometimes traveling to three or more states in a single day.
