Enthused Democrats have embraced Harris’s late entry into the race, while Trump and his allies have scrambled to hone attacks on her.
ST. CLOUD, Minn. — Donald Trump supporters lining up to enter a rally here passed the usual tents hawking MAGA merchandise, but suddenly most of the gear attacking President Biden was gone. A few straggler “Let’s go Brandon” stickers remained. New swag targeting Vice President Harris, the new presumptive Democratic nominee, had yet to arrive.
Harris allies responded with a new spot touting her work as a prosecutor, state attorney general and vice president. The super PAC Future Forwardit would spend $50 million boosting Harris ahead of the Democratic National Convention in August. Another group, American Bridge 21st Century, is resuming Trump attack ads in battleground states.Harris allies are leaning into attacking Trump’s new running mate, Sen.
Walz, in an interview with The Washington Post, said he wasn’t trying to drive a political message, just making “an observation.”“This is weird stuff — they’re way too obsessed with our bedrooms,” he said. “All of a sudden it feels like to me, people are pausing and saying, ‘You’re right, this just doesn’t feel right.’”
At the fundraiser in Pittsfield, Mass., Harris told the crowd that Trump and his allies have been resorting to some “wild lies” about her record. And she picked up the Walz line of argument as well. “She made a commitment to come here before this all happened,” said co-host Sherwood Guernsey, an attorney and former state legislator who leads the Rural Freedom Network political action committee. “She could have easily said ‘I’ve got to go to the swing states.’ … She’s got lots of other places to go.”
