Harris’s big statement after nomination confirmed

Addressing an election rally in Atlanta, Georgia, Harris (59) said the nature of the presidential election has changed after she joined the race. Harris officially announced her candidacy when incumbent President Joe Biden announced his withdrawal from the race for a second term on July 20. Harris said, “The course of time is changing.” There are signs that Donald Trump is feeling it. You must have seen last week, he pulled out of the debate in September, which he had earlier agreed to. He told the enthusiastic crowd, “Donald, I hope you will reconsider meeting me on the debate stage, because if you have something to say, say it in front of me.” Harris rejected the allegations of Trump team According to Harris’s campaign team, about 10,000 people attended her rally in Atlanta, an important electoral ground. Harris said, “The road to the White House goes straight through this state and you all helped us win in 2020 and we are going to do it again in 2024.” At the same time, Trump’s campaign team has released a new advertisement in important electoral states, alleging that “dangerously liberal” Kamala Harris failed to stop the infiltration of illegal immigrants on the southern border of America. However, Harris’s campaign team has rejected this allegation. These allegations have been made by Trump against Harris

Trump’s campaign team’s senior advisor Daniel Alvarez said, “Kamala Harris’s failure has made America less safe. Migrant crime has increased, terrorists have entered the country through the open border, human trafficking is affecting every state. Harris is dangerously liberal and Americans are paying the price for it.” Trump’s campaign team said, “Trump built the most secure border in the history of our country. But in just a few years, Kamala Harris opened the doors for millions of illegal immigrants.”

Harris’ campaign team rejected the allegations and said, “After ending the toughest border agreement in decades, Trump is running on his trademark lies because his own record and ‘plans’ have been unpopular.
