Harris Says ‘Resources’ Are Ready In Case Trump Denies Election Again
With two weeks left until the election, Harris said she’s focused on beating Trump, but she’s still prepared in case he attempts to challenge the election or falsely declare victory, according to an interview Tuesday between the vice president and NBC News’ Hallie Jackson.
"We will deal with election night and the days after as they come, and we have the resources and the expertise and the focus on that," Harris said.
Harris pointed to Trump’s role in the Jan. 6, 2021, Captial Insurrection and the possibility of a similar occurrence.
"This is a person, Donald Trump, who tried to undo the free and fair election, who still denies the will of the people who incited a violent mob to attack the United States Capitol, and 140 law enforcement officers were attacked, some who were killed. This is a serious matter," she added.
Tim Walz Calls Elon Musk A ‘Dipshit’
Walz criticized Trump for his plan to elevate billionaire CEO Elon Musk to an influential government position, potentially having say over federal policies that affect his companies. He joked that Musk, who has been stumping for Trump and dangling $1 million checks to voters, was practically serving as Trump’s running mate.
"Elon's on that stage, jumpin' around, skipping like a dipshit,” Walz said. “You know it!” he added.In Walz's words, Musk is “spending millions of dollars to help Donald Trump buy an election.”
Obama Calls Out Trump’s Weird, Musical ‘Town Hall’ As Evidence Of Cognitive Decline
Speaking alongside Walz at in Madison, Wisc., Obama reflected on Trump’s bizarre “town hall” in Pennsylvania last week, where, instead of fielding questions, Trump listened to his favorite songs for nearly 40 minutes, at times mouthing the words and dancing along.
“There are questions about his competence,” Obama said, leading into the anecdote. “He’s out there giving two-hour speeches, it’s like Fidel Castro, just keeps on talking. Just word salad.”
Obama was baffled as he recalled Trump’s behavior onstage.
“So he’s standing there. He’s swaying to Ave Maria and YMCA. The governor from South Dakota, she’s standing there with this weird look on her face like she doesn’t really know what’s going on. It’s like a hostage video,” he said, drawing laughter from the crowd.
“Can you imagine if Tim [Walz] did that, or Kamala did that or I did that?” He asked incredulously. “Now, our playlist would be better. But you’d say to yourself, ‘This is odd behavior!’”
“My point is you’d be worried if grandpa were acting like this. Right?” Obama concluded. “But this is coming from someone who wants unchecked power! Wisconsin, we do not need to see what an older, loonier Donald Trump looks like with no guardrails. America’s ready to turn the page.”
Barack Obama Takes A Dig At Trump's Photo-Op At McDonald's
Former President Barack Obama, campaigning in Wisconsin alongside Walz on Tuesday, took a shot at Trump's visit to a McDonald's restaurant over the weekend.
Harris, Obama said at a rally in Madison, is "somebody who actually worked at McDonald's when she was in college to pay her expenses." He added that the vice president "didn't just pretend like you worked at McDonald's -- when it was closed."
Trump’s stint working at a drive-through window at a McDonald’s northeast of Philadelphia on Sunday was heavily staged, with Trump supporters picking up food from the former president while the restaurant was closed to the public.
