Kamala Harris, the US vice-president, has intensified her criticism of former President Donald Trump, warning that a second term for him would pose a significant risk to America. At a campaign rally in Pennsylvania, Harris showed a montage of clips of Trump where he referred to Democrats as “the enemy within” and suggested using the armed forces against them. Trump’s extreme language towards Harris, including calling her “mentally impaired” and “retarded”, has sparked concern about his authoritarian tone. In response, Harris’s campaign released a new ad featuring former Trump administration members warning about the dangers of a second Trump term. The ad emphasizes the authoritarian tendencies and lack of restraint Trump would exhibit if reelected. Harris is also highlighting Trump’s avoidance of mainstream media interviews, contrasting this with her upcoming interview on Fox News, typically seen as unfriendly terrain for Democrats. With the election approaching, Harris is ramping up efforts to paint Trump as a threat to democracy and stability in America. The escalating rhetoric and tactics from both sides reflect the high stakes of the upcoming election and the deep divisions within the country.
