Former US President and Republican nominee Donald Trump reacted strongly to Kamala Harris‘s speech during the final night of the Democratic National Convention on Thursday. As Harris formally accepted the Democratic presidential nomination, Trump accused her of ‘lying’ and shared his live reactions on X through his Truth Social account.
In anticipation of her address, Trump clearly expressed his intent to denounce Harris by posting on Truth Social, “I’m getting ready to be fair but critical of Comrade Kamala Harris.My Play by Play will be on TRUTH Social, starting SOON!”
As Harris began her speech, Trump wasted no time taking to social media to share his thoughts. He blasted her opening remarks, posting, “Too many ‘Thank yous,’ too rapidly said, what’s going on with her?”
Trump went on tweeting spree on the vice president, focusing on her early remarks about her childhood and career aspirations. He urged her to address other pressing issues, writing, “A lot of talk about childhood, we’ve got to get to the Border, Inflation, and Crime!”
As Harris made a forceful defence of Ukraine and Nato in her speech, she attacked Trump’s past comments on the war in Ukraine.
“As President, I will stand strong with Ukraine and our Nato allies,” Harris declared, highlighting her commitment to international alliances.
She also said that five days before Russia invaded Ukraine, she warned President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and helped lead the US diplomatic response, rallying “more than 50 countries” to support Ukraine.
In response, Trump defended his record on Nato, tweeting, “Nato wasn’t paying their Bills, almost every Country was delinquent. When I said, ‘If you don’t pay, we’re out, the United States is tired of being a sucker,’ the money came rolling in by the BILLIONS, and I saved Nato!”
Trump also seized the moment to criticise Harris on domestic issues, particularly immigration. As Harris also addressed about reforming America’s broken immigration system in her speech at DNC.
He accused her of wanting to grant citizenship to all undocumented immigrants. “She just called to give all Illegals CITIZENSHIP, SAY GOODBYE TO THE USA! SHE IS A RADICAL MARXIST!” Trump tweeted.
Continuing his social media onslaught, Republican nominee posted, “She talked about the Rule of Law but, as Border Czar, she allowed 20 Million people into our Country, many of them Criminals, who are MAIMING and KILLING our people!”
Trump, with other top Republicans, has frequently labelled Harris a failed “border czar” in attacks on social media and during rally speeches, despite the fact that she never officially held this title. In March 2021, President Biden tasked Harris with addressing the “root causes” of migration to the US, a role distinct from direct oversight of border enforcement.
Kamala Harris also highlighted Trump’s past praise for Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un during her speech, asserting, “I will not cozy up to tyrants and dictators.”
In reaction, Trump tweeted, “The Tyrants are laughing at her; she’s weak and ineffective. For three and a half years, she has done nothing but enable them to become STRONG, RICH, and POWERFUL!”
He further criticised Harris, stating, “There will be no future under Comrade Kamala Harris because she will lead us into Nuclear World War III! She will never earn the respect of the Tyrants of the World!”
Harris on the final night of DNC said that she would “always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself,” while also pressing for the release of hostages and a cease-fire deal.
She also acknowledged the dire situation in Gaza, saying, “At the same time, what has happened in Gaza in the last 10 months is devastating, so many innocent lives lost. Desperate, hungry people fleeing to safety over and over again. The scale of suffering is heartbreaking.”
On her statement, Trump criticised Harris’s statements on Israel, posting, “SHE HATES ISRAEL – Wouldn’t even show up to Congress for Netanyahu’s session!” He also made inflammatory claims, asserting, “She caused the Attack of October 7th. Iran was BROKE – Didn’t have money for Hezbollah!”
Harris took the center stage to officially accept her nomination, nearly a month after she entered the race following President Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw.
