- With 12 days to go until the US presidential election, Democrat Kamala Harris and Republican Donald Trump are making their last pitches to voters.
- Trump is heading to the western US for rallies in Arizona and Nevada. Harris will hold a rally in Georgia, where Trump was yesterday, with former President Obama and musician Bruce Springsteen.Democrat Harris pounced on the opportunity to hit her opponent, calling the reports a “window into who Donald Trump really is”.
“Donald Trump is increasingly unhinged and unstable,” she told reporters outside the White House on Wednesday.
Trump fired back at Kelly, calling him a “total degenerate” who “made up a story out of pure Trump Derangement Syndrome Hatred!” in a post on his Truth Social platform.
“John Kelly is a LOWLIFE, and a bad General, whose advice in the White House I no longer sought, and told him to MOVE ON!”, Trump continued.
Trump vows to protect ‘birthright’ to live in ‘richest’ nation
At a rally in Georgia yesterday, Trump emphasised his push to present himself as a defender of American excpetionalism.
“I will never apologise for defending America. I’m not going to do it,” Trump said. “And I will protect the birthright of our children to live in the richest and most powerful nation on the face of the earth.”
Harris says Sinwar’s death ‘opportunity’ to end Gaza war
The vice president says the killing of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar could help bring an end to the war on Gaza.
“I do believe we have an opportunity to end this war, bring the hostages home, bring relief to the Palestinian people and work toward a two-state solution where Israel and the Palestinians, with equal measure, have security, where the Palestinian people have dignity, self-determination and the safety that they so rightly deserve,” she said at the CNN town hall yesterday.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Natanyahu has made it clear that he is not interested in a ceasefire after the killing of Sinwar, vowing to continue the war in Gaza and Lebanon.
Harris has faced mounting criticism over her pledge to continue arming Israel despite the US ally’s well-documented, ongoing abuses.
