Harris and Trump visit N.C., Biden “garbage” comment on Trump rally sparks outrage

Harris delivered her closing argument against Trump at the same site he encouraged his supporters to “fight like hell” on Jan. 6, 2021, before they marched to the U.S. Capitol and tried unsuccessfully to halt the certification of President Biden’s victory. 

Harris, speaking to a massive crowd at the Ellipse near the White House, is trying to draw a contrast between her vision for the country and Trump’s as she seeks to win over undecided voters a week before Election Day. The campaign said 75,000 people were in attendance, with crowds overflowing on the National Mall all the way to the Jefferson Memorial. 

“We know who Donald Trump is,” Harris said. “He is the person who stood at this very spot nearly four years ago and sent an armed mob to the United States Capitol to overturn the will of the people in a free and fair election, an election that he knew he lost.”

“America, we know what Donald Trump has in mind. More chaos. More division. And policies that help those at the very top and hurt everyone else. I offer a different path. And I ask for your vote,” she said. 

She vowed to work with Republicans and independents alike to help improve Americans’ lives.

Telling the crowd that in less than 90 days, “Donald Trump or I will be in the Oval Office,” and “on Day One, if elected, Donald Trump will walk in with an enemies list.” 

“I will walk in with a to-do list full of priorities for what I will get done,” she told the cheering crowd.

Harris called her Republican rival “unstable,” “obsessed with revenge,” “consumed with grievance” and “out for unchecked power.”
