During a recent campaign appearance in Charlotte, North Carolina, former President Donald Trump criticized Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party’s presumptive nominee, after Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 race. The Republican presidential nominee claimed that Harris was a radical candidate “more left than Bernie Sanders,” who is often described as a socialist.
At the critical battleground state, Trump coined a new pejorative term for the vice president, calling her “lyin’ Kamala Harris.” The former president said, “So now we have a new victim to defeat, lyin’ Kamala Harris. Lyin’, L, Y, I N, the most incompetent and far-left of vice presidents in American history. By the way, they did a poll, she was rated the worst vice president in history. I’ve never seen that poll before, but that’s the poll.”
Trump continued calling out Harris for her far-left political stances, labeling her the most liberal politician in the history of the U.S., falling even further left on the spectrum than Bernie Sanders. Trump claimed that her campaign is now trying to backtrack on some of her past positions to be more appealing to a broader base, but she is unable to distance herself from her progressivism.
“Kamala Harris is the most liberal elected politician in American history. Did you know that she’s an ultra-liberal politician? She’s absolutely terrible. She’s, as you know, more liberal than Bernie Sanders. Can you believe it? She’s rated far more liberal than Bernie said. She’s now trying to get rid of her record, but she can’t,” he said.
The Republican presidential candidate then tore apart Harris’ record as vice president, claiming she “destroyed this country so fast,” particularly when it comes to her failure to take substantive action in securing the border.
“She’s going out and saying thank you that she doesn’t believe it, if she ever got it, she destroyed this country so fast. So she was the border czar, but she never went to the border, right? She was appointed by this horrible president, this horrible guy. How, this guy got to be President, in his basement, he stayed in his basement,” he continued.
However, Vice President Harris has recently attempted to highlight her record on law enforcement. “As many of you know, before I was elected as vice president, before I was elected as a United States senator, I was the elected attorney general of California. Before that, I was a courtroom prosecutor. In those roles, I took on perpetrators of all kinds,” Harris said Monday at an event at her campaign headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware,” she said.

Harris also took a shot at Trump after his recent felony conviction, where she claimed she knows Trump’s “type.” She said, “Predators who abused women, fraudsters who ripped off consumers, cheaters who broke the rules for their own gain. So, hear me when I say I know Donald Trump’s type,” while focusing on his incessant legal battles.
