In a highly charged rally in Charlotte, North Carolina, former President Donald Trump took the stage to declare victory over Joe Biden and launch a scathing attack on Vice President Kamala Harris. This marked Trump’s first major public appearance since President Biden ended his re-election bid, and the atmosphere was electric as Trump addressed his enthusiastic supporters.

 

Trump, sporting a small bandage on his right ear, began by proclaiming his win over Biden. "As you know, three days ago, we officially defeated the worst president in the history of our country," he told the crowd, which erupted in applause. "He quit because he was losing so badly in the polls," Trump asserted, suggesting that the Democratic Party leaders forced Biden out using the 25th Amendment. "The bosses said, ‘Either you get out or we’re going to throw you out using the 25th Amendment.’ That’s what happened," he argued.

 

Turning his attention to Kamala Harris, Trump was unrelenting in his criticism. "We have a new victim to defeat – Lyin Kamala Harris," he declared. Trump did not hold back, claiming, "I was supposed to be nice. They say something happened to me when I got shot. I became nice. And when you’re dealing with these people — they’re very dangerous people — When you’re dealing with them, you can’t be too nice." Drawing cheers from the audience, he added, "So if you don’t mind, I’m not going to be nice."

 

Harris, who Biden endorsed to run in his stead, has already secured enough Democratic delegate support to receive the party’s nomination for president. She is expected to be formally named the Democratic nominee by August 7, following a virtual roll call approved by the Democratic National Committee rules committee.

 

Trump lambasted Harris as "the most incompetent and far-left vice president in American history," attributing record levels of inflation and illegal immigration to her influence in the Biden administration. "For three-and-a-half years, Kamala Harris has been the ultra-liberal driving force behind every single Biden catastrophe," Trump claimed. "She is a radical left lunatic who will destroy our country if she ever gets the chance to get into office."

 

The former president painted Harris as more liberal than Senator Bernie Sanders, calling her "the most liberal elected politician in American history." He linked her to the Biden administration’s border policies, which he noted were one of Biden’s biggest weaknesses. "She was the border czar but she never went to the border," Trump noted. "As border czar, Kamala opened our borders and allowed 20 million illegal aliens to stampede into our country from all over the world."

 

Trump also criticized Harris for her role in the economy, highlighting her tie-breaking vote to pass the $739 billion Democratic spending plan known as the Inflation Reduction Act. "As vice president, she cast the tie-breaking vote that created the worst inflation in a half-century, decimating middle-class families and hurting very badly, as you know, all people in North Carolina," he said.

 

On foreign policy, Trump blamed Harris for the failure to prevent Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022. "Kamala Harris was sent to Europe to deter Russia – what a joke that was – from attacking Ukraine," he claimed. "How did that work out? Russia answered by launching the invasion just five days after she left." He added, "Putin laughed at it like she was nothing. She is nothing."

 

Several rally attendees echoed Trump’s sentiments, expressing their dissatisfaction with the Biden-Harris administration. Austin Davis, a 26-year-old GIS technician, told The Post, "My paycheck has definitely gone down since Biden took over." Michelle Smith, 57, said she believes Trump "has the heart of America as what he stands for" and criticized the state of illegal immigration. Robin Padgett, 55, lamented, "There are too many homeless people, people cannot afford rent, groceries. It’s just terrible."

 

During the rally, Trump briefly touched on the July 13 shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania, which left him and two others wounded and killed one rally-goer. "Bullets were flying," Trump recalled, describing the incident as "a rough, horrible, horrible time." He noted that Secret Service agents wanted to put him on a stretcher, but he refused. "I said, ‘You’re not putting me – I’m not getting on a stretcher,’" he recalled. "My shoes got knocked off … They tackled me so damn hard."

 

Near the end of the rally, Trump announced he had received the endorsement of the National Association of Police Organizations. NAPO President Mick McHale praised Trump as a "steadfast and very public" supporter of law enforcement in a letter distributed to the media at the event.

Tug should be working for CNN,  He would fit right in.  Tug - You missed your calling.

More Trump blah, blah, blah. It's obvious that his Depends are handling overload as he tries to discredit VP Harris, the VP that people donated 250 million dollars to in support of her campaign. And that's in only 4 days. Maybe the fact that Elon Musk is not going to donate 45 million dollars a month to him, contrary to what Trump boasted, also caused some overload.

The game has changed. As Trump likes to say, "we'll see, we'll see how it goes". Yes sir, we will.

Just admit it Don. You got out maneuvered. You were outplayed. You messed up. Picking JD was a historic mistake, akin to Palin. He is an empty suit and is a negative for the ticket. If Harris picks someone strong like Shapiro or Beshear, it could be a slaughter. Imagine if Trump loses again? He and his horrendous family will be destroyed and erased from the face of politics, forever. MAGA will be finished. The world will be saved. LOL. 

 

Trump is now desperate. He can smell the loss. He will be humiliated and banished forever. See ya, Don. 

The felon has been gobsmacked by the energetic Harris. Heck, he can't even settle on a nickname yet, having tried "Cackling", "Laffin'", "Crooked" and "Lyin".

 

He also tried playing up his plastic injury for the sympathy vote, but between that and the RNC, he got zero bounce. Traditionally, candidates see an 8-10 point jump coming out of a convention. The felon got zip. Nada. Ziffer.

 

The Prosecutor vs the Felon works. He cannot claim anything to do with law and order, as not only is he a convicted felon and civilly convicted sex offender, he barks about pardoning the insurrectionists and terrorists who stormed the Capitol and beat and injured 140 police officers. Also, his lies about crime and regularly fact checked, and crime is down sharply under Biden-Harris than it was under the felon. In his rambling, bizarre RNC speech he said illegals have 'murdered hundreds of thousands of Americans", which is a porker of astonishing magnitude. He really needs his Mendacity Director of his campaign to try to come up with lies that are at least plausible.

 

Also, his and the Repubs racist and misogynistic attacks on Harris are backfiring so badly, that RNC officials have warned R pols and pundits to knock it off.

 

The kind of energy Harris is eliciting is reminiscent of Clinton in '92 and Obama in '08. It is taking on a momentum all its own. Harris had an A+ week, and looks likely to continue, while the felon is looking older and even more bizarre. Harris is not letting anything the felon says slip by, and that is getting deeper into his bloated body, which is likely to make him behave even worse.

 

His plank of "I am your retribution" fails when Harris is talking positive and upbeat. His call for a return to some imaginary past falls flat when Harris talks about the future. His campaign is going to flounder like his electric boat driver trying to avoid the circling sharks.

 

Harris will rise in the polls, which will remind the felon that he still faces a number of court cases that come to the docket if he loses and cannot pardon himself. The prospect of dying in jial will loom larger and larger as the months tick by. He will hit a whole new level of crazy.

The polls, and more importantly the bookies, do not agree with you.  Current odds are 65-70% Trump victory. And that will only increase once Kamala starts to campaign. Same as in 2020. 

 

And Harris wont pick Shapiro because he is Jewish. Did you see what happened at Netanyahu's speech? something like 50 Democrats didnt even show up, including the VP. The Democratic party is in thrall to their anti-semitic base.

Whatever you are 'consuming', if you have any left I would like some.   Although perhaps not if it makes a person so paranoid and delusional.

I feel sad for someone like you who makes such comments that are so misguided. The assassination attempt was not a hoax. I can not comprehend how you even consider this given that CNN captured the image or the bullet going to his head.

 

Also, Biden was hardly successful unless you mean at doing nothing to deter wars starting in other countries or allowing millions of illegals into the country undocumented.. Or maybe he was highly successful at increasing the cost of living to an all-time high. He quit running for President after the world laughed about his incompetence during the debate with Trump. His own party demanded it simply for their fear if a Democrat is not president then all the other Democrats in high office will be given the boot after Trump is elected. Harris will win the right to run for President now.

 

God help America if she wins. She is actually quite bad at interviews and at rallies. She relies on repetition and is lost easily in her inability to know how to answer a question that is not in her repertoire. Even when with world leaders she was speechless about the reason why she was there and relied on another world leader to give replies even when she was asked for a reply.

Imagine how the world will respect this woman? Will they listen to her rhetoric? Will they push her to give in to their demands? She is a wimp. She does what she is told to by her handlers.

 

Trump is not the best choice. But Harris is the worst. This will be an election where we should see NONE OF THE ABOVE checked. But, people like you will be ticking support for idiots to run the country. I just hope no-one attacks the USA while she is president. She will probably welcome them with open arms as she does with the border situation. Oh wait, Harris is in control of the border already but has never been there. Hmm.. 

 

the Democrat Party has officially lost me. they forced Hillary on by cheating in the primaries, they forced Kamala on by ineptitude. the Democrat Party is determined to lose its constituents and this race. the only hope they have is to energize the youngest generation to flood the polls. why does every election get sh**tier than the last!? I don't see a reason to vote this cycle, may the worst candidate lose

Not pandering to a war criminal is a good look.

No more than referring to the freely elected leader of one of America's staunchest allies, and the leader of the only functioning democracy in the Middle East (and the only one with rights for LGBT, women, and minorities) as a 'war criminal'.

How about you respecting the right and freedom of American Representatives to decide who they do and do not wish to pander to, without you spewing the allegation or ‘anti-semitism’ and ‘pandering to Hamas’?

 

Give it a try.

 

 

Trump targets Harris.

 

I trust it has been explained to him he’s just walked into a two way street.

By the look of that photo you should be on a stretcher right now 🤔

If that's the opening argument, it's only going to sit well with those suffering learning difficulties. The entire world went through a pandemic lock down when central banks started a cash infusion program with low interest rates that caused inflation everywhere as a follow on result. It would have happened whichever political party was running a country.  Any campaigner who keeps spouting nonsense gets found out eventually.

Same old rally speech not without his favourite line about Hannibal Hector that bored his supporters to leave. His party seek an image overhaul and proclaimed that Trump was a changed man after the shooting but alas it is the same old same old Trump with his tired incoherent speech.

One can only hope ... and vote. Quote from Trump, "... Trump was unrelenting in his criticism. "We have a new victim to defeat – Lyin Kamala Harris," he declared.  Yes, "victim" of Trump's documented history of lies and name calling ...

And under the Biden administration we have a 2.8% growth this year best on the planet and inflation under 3% thanks to competent leadership the only question is does trump realize just what an abject failure his administration was?doubt his mental illness would allow him to……
