Democrats make clear they plan to put up a strong fight against their Republican rivals, and have some fun doing it too
Bywith newly-minted running mate Tim Walz.
You could sense it before Harris and Walz even showed up at Temple University in Philadelphia to speak to a crowd of 10,000. She added: “Our campaign is not just a fight against Donald Trump. This campaign is a fight for the future.” Trump won all three in 2016, but Joe Biden won them back in 2020, some of them by just by just the narrowest of margins.
That sort of fun was one of the reasons Democrats said they had raised more than $20m in grassroots donations in the hours since Harris announced she was opting for the 60-year-old former school teacher and military veteran.It was certainly very different to how Trump was seeing things. Writing on Truth Social just as Harris was set to appear, the former president posted a comment that appeared strained even by his standards.
The pair will campaign on issues such as access to abortion care, common-sense gun control, and not banning certain books simply because a small group of activist parents kick up a fuss.
