Donald Trump and Kamala Harris crisscrossed several swing states
Democrat Kamala Harris says recent comments by her opponent, Republican Donald Trump, are “offensive” and that it’s clear he doesn’t understand women.
She was responding to Trump, who said Wednesday that he will protect women. The subtext of both Trump’s and Harris’ comments appears to be a 2022 decision by the U.S. Supreme Court that overturned federal abortion rights. Trump appointed three of the justices to the court who formed the conservative majority.
Trump tells New Mexico he will fix problems at the border
At a New Mexico rally, Trump tells his supporters that his advisors told him he didn’t need to come to New Mexico because he wouldn’t be able to win the state.
But he asked for rally goers in Albuquerque to turnout the vote for him in the border state.
“One of the reasons we will win this state is you have one of the worst border problems of any state, and I’m the only one who will fix it,” he said.
Trump campaign seizes on remarks about women by key Harris supporter
Donald Trump’s campaign is seizing on remarks from top Harris surrogate Mark Cuban, who said, “You never see” Trump “around strong, intelligent women — ever.”
The statement, made in an interview with “The View,” drew immediate rebuke from Republican women, including Trump’s campaign chief, Susie Wiles.
“I’m told @mcuban needs help identifying the strong and intelligent women surrounding Pres. Trump. Well, here we are!” she wrote in a rare media post. “I’ve been proud to lead this campaign,” she said, while also pointing to Linda McMahon, who is co-chairing Trump’s transition effort, and Trump’s daughter-in-law Lara Trump, co-chair of the RNC.
Campaign spokesperson Karoline Leavitt also went after Cuban.
“This is extremely insulting to the thousands of women who work for President Trump, and the tens of millions of women who are voting for him,” she said in a statement.
JD Vance says COVID vaccine made him sick
JD Vance told podcaster Joe Rogan he became “red-pilled on the whole vax thing” when he got sick after being vaccinated against COVID-19.
He said it was the sickest he’s been in the past 15 years, adding he contracted COVID-19 five times and likened those illnesses to a sinus infection.
Scientists say severe complications from the COVID vaccine are rare and outweighed by the benefits, which include more mild symptoms from a COVID infection. However, much of Trump’s base is distrustful of the vaccines.
Mark Cuban claims Trump’s tariffs will make holiday gift prices soar
At a rally Thursday for Kamala Harris, Mark Cuban claimed that Donald Trump used to be “a little bit coherent.”
“But I don’t know what happened to him,” said Cuban, an owner of the NBA’s Dallas Mavericks and celebrity investor on “Shark Tank.”
The rally Thursday was at Recreational Eagle Center, the main sports and recreation facility on the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse campus. The school has about 9,400 undergraduates and about 930 graduate students. A large sign on one end of the arena reads, “A New Way Forward for La Crosse.”
JD Vance says Trump floated VP idea at rally where he was shot
Sen. JD Vance told podcaster Joe Rogan on Thursday that Trump first broached the topic of the Ohio lawmaker being his running mate on the morning of the July 13 Pennsylvania rally where Trump was shot.
The former president then suggested that Vance accompany him to the Butler rally later that day where they would announce the vice-presidential pick together on stage.
“He looks at one of his staff members and says, ’actually, wouldn’t it really set the world ablaze if we just made the decision today,” Vance told Rogan.
Trump ended up changing his mind and going to the campaign stop on his own.
