Kamala Harris tears into Trump’s MSG rally, calling it ‘fixated on division’

US Vice President Kamala Harris sharply criticized former President Donald Trump following his recent rally at Madison Square Garden, claiming he is “fixated” on grievances and dividing the country. Harris’s remarks came as she underscored her concerns about the impact of Trump’s rhetoric on national unity.
Speaking to reporters, Harris stated, “Donald Trump’s event in Madison Square Garden really highlighted a point that I’ve been making throughout this campaign. He is focused and fixated on his grievances, on himself and on dividing our country, and it is not in any way something that will strengthen the American family or the American worker.”
The rally, which took place on Sunday night, featured several controversial speakers, including comedian Tony Hinchliffe, who made derogatory comments about Puerto Rico, describing it as a “floating island of garbage.” Harris emphasized that such remarks contribute to a culture of division and hostility, further alienating communities across the nation.
When asked about comparisons between Trump’s rally and the Nazi rally of 1939, Harris remarked, “This is not new about him, but it may be more vivid than usual.”
Harris’s comments reflect an ongoing strategy by the Biden administration to address the growing polarization in American politics, particularly in the lead-up to the upcoming election. As the Democratic nominee, she aims to rally voters around themes of inclusivity and community strength, challenging Trump’s narrative of grievance and division.
With the election approaching, the stark contrast between the two candidates’ messages is expected to shape the political landscape, as Harris continues to advocate for policies that unite rather than divide the American populace.
