Vice President Kamala Harris joined CNN in Pennsylvania for a town hall with undecided voters on Wednesday, where she compared former President Donald Trump to Nazi Germany dictator Adolf Hitler. Harris emphasized the seriousness of the issue, expressing her concerns about Trump’s admiration for dictators like Kim Jong-Un. Earlier, former Trump administration chief of staff John Kelly claimed that Trump praised “Hitler’s generals” for their loyalty.
Harris reiterated her stance on Trump, calling him “unhinged” and “unstable,” suggesting that he desires unchecked power similar to Hitler. She also labeled Trump as a “fascist” during the town hall with Anderson Cooper. Despite surviving two assassination attempts, Trump has attributed the attacks to heated rhetoric from Democrats.
During the event, Harris engaged with undecided voters and highlighted the differences between her potential administration and Biden’s leadership. She emphasized her unique ideas and experiences, promising a new generation of leadership on various issues, such as housing. Harris also addressed the need to fix the broken immigration system and stressed the importance of bipartisan cooperation.
The town hall event provided a platform for Harris to discuss her policies on abortion and immigration. She criticized Trump’s approach to the border wall, pointing out the lack of progress in its construction. Harris acknowledged the need for a secure border but emphasized the importance of practical solutions and bipartisan efforts.
In response to questions about abortion laws, Harris condemned red state policies that restrict women’s reproductive rights, citing instances where women have died due to such laws. She called for an end to the filibuster to pass laws protecting abortion access nationwide, a move that has faced criticism from lawmakers and conservatives.
As the election approaches, Pennsylvania remains a key battleground state for both Harris and Trump. Harris leveraged the town hall to engage with voters and emphasize her commitment to addressing critical issues facing the country. Despite facing challenges and criticism, Harris remains focused on her campaign and the vision she offers for the future of America.
