United States Vice President and Democratic Party nominee Kamala Harris has taken a swipe at Former president Donald Trump over abortion laws during the ongoing debate, saying the ex-president hand-picked three members of the Supreme Court
According to Harris, “Donald Trump hand-selected three members of the Supreme Court with the intention that they would undo the protections of Roe v. Wade—and they did exactly as he intended. And now, in over 20 states, there are Trump abortion bans.”
Trump has vehemently denied the allegations, saying he would allow abortion in some states.
Kamala Harris hit Donald Trump over his lack of support from people who once worked for him, listing off former officials who have decried their former boss.
“If you want to really know the inside track on who the former president is — if he didn’t make it clear already — just ask people who have worked with him,” Harris said.
She listed off several former Trump administration officials who have come out against Trump, including his second chief of staff, John Kelly, who said the former president has “contempt” for the Constitution.
Trump hit back by saying: “I’m a different kind of a person. I fired most of those people, not so graciously. They did bad things or a bad job. I fired them.” He added the Biden administration “never fired one person.”
He said the Democratic administration should have fired those “having to do with Afghanistan,” referring to the deadly August 2021 US withdrawal from the country. Trump added, “look at the economy. Look at the inflation. They didn’t fire any of their economists.”
I took a bullet to the head because of the things they say about me, says Trump
Former President Donald Trump claimed that he “probably took a bullet to the head” because of the rhetoric Vice President Kamala Harris and others have said about him.
Trump was pushing back against Harris’ claim that the former president would weaponize the Justice Department against his political enemies if reelected.
“This is the one that weaponized, not me. She weaponized. I probably took a bullet to the head because of the things that they say about me. They talk about democracy — ‘I’m a threat to democracy.’ They’re the threat to democracy,” he said.
