Donald Trump, Republican presidential candidate, He says that, given Kamala Harris’ poor performance as vice president of the nation, he has the right to criticize her.
Unlike the California Democrat, who has spent almost four weeks without establishing a direct dialogue with the media to explain the government plan she intends to establish if she wins the elections, the 78-year-old Republican invited the press to his residence in Bedminster, New Jersey, where he gave a speech for almost an hour.
Trump announced that his campaign would hire several new strategic aides, including Corey Lewandowski, who ran his campaign for a period in 2016.
However, he dismissed any possibility that the additions imply a change in strategy, as he is convinced that Kamala Harris’ campaign will eventually slow down.
In response to questions about the recommendation made by several of his party’s coreligionists to stop fiercely criticizing the woman who is seeking to become the nation’s first female president, the New York tycoon said he was within his rights to do so.
“I am very angry with her for what she has done to the country. I think I am entitled to personal attacks. “I don’t have a lot of respect for her. I don’t have a lot of respect for her intelligence, and I think she would be a terrible president,” he stressed.
In fact, He clarified that as long as they continue trying to make him look bad in the eyes of the public, their disparaging comments will also continue.
“Whether personal attacks are good or bad, she certainly attacks me personally. In fact, she called me weird,” he argued.
Surprisingly, Kamala Harris’ campaign continues to raise money through donations and some polls show her even ahead of Trump in states such as Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.
However, the real strength of his campaign will be defined on September 10 in the first of two debates he will have with the former president.
At one point, Joe Biden also showed greater strength than Trump, but when he was in front of him, his behavior ended up burying his candidacy.
