Some Republicans Are Not Supporting Trump’s New Attack on Harris’ Mental Health.
(VOR News) – In a meandering speech over the weekend in Wisconsin, Donald Trump launched his latest jab at Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris.
On Sunday, the Republican Party attempted to disasociate itself from these latest remarks. Harris was described by Trump as “mentally disabled.”
Following Harris’ visit to the border between the United States and Mexico, Trump escalated his personal attacks on the vice president during what was meant to be an immigration speech.
Donald Trump claims Joe Biden suffered from mental illness.
It was Kamala’s birth manner. She was born in that manner. Think about the fact that someone with a mental illness is the only person who could have allowed something like this to happen in our country. Anyone could see this coming.
In addition to calling Harris “dumb as a rock,” “weak,” “stupid,” and “lazy,” Trump has also falsely claimed that Harris “turned black.” His supporters actively pushed him to speak out both publicly and privately about other issues, including the economy, immigration, and other worries, with just over a month until the presidential election.
In response to a query on President Trump’s comments, Republican senator from South Carolina Lindsey Graham stated, “I just think the better course of action is to prosecute the case that her policies are destroying the country,” during an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “They are completely open-minded.”
In an appearance with ABC’s “This Week,” Republican Representative Tom Emmer of Minnesota skirted the topic of whether or not he agreed with the comments.
During Trump’s vice presidential debate preparations, Emmer declared:
“I think Kamala Harris is right for America.” My observations lead me to conclude that Kamala Harris is every bit as bad—if not more so—than the government we have been watching for the last four years.
Emmer said, “I think we should stick to the issues,” in response to a question about further details. The issue is that Donald Trump has the answer already. It was damaged. He will make things right more than once. They are, in fact, the issues.
The moderate Republican candidate for the Senate from Maryland, former governor Larry Hogan, brought up Trump’s baseless claims that Harris, a Black woman descended from Indian and Jamaican immigrants, had downplayed her Black heritage in the past. Hogan is a Senate candidate.
Throughout her political career, Harris has continuously identified as South Asian and Black. She attended Howard University, a historically Black college, for her studies.
“I’ve already called him out when he had the one interview where he was questioning her racial identity, and now he’s questioning her mental competence,” Hogan said on CBS’s “Face the Nation.” That is condescending to people who actually do have mental health issues, in addition to being demeaning to the Vice President, in my opinion.
If Harris were elected, this would make her the first Black woman, woman, and person of South Asian descent to hold the presidency.
Responding to a question, she said it was “the same old show.”
She hasn’t, however, offered any feedback on the recent assaults Trump has launched. The same old, stale script that we have been hearing for years, with no plan for how he would address the needs of the American people moving forward.
Trump claimed a month prior that he was “entitled” to criticise Harris personally while the campaign was in progress.
In front of a press conference at the time, he said, “With regard to the personal attacks, I am very angry at her because of what she has done to the country.” She would use the legal system as a weapon against me and other people, and for that I am incredibly angry. She has totally infuriated me. For my part, I think I have the right to be assaulted.
