Harris calls Trump, who accuses her of inciting violence against him

The American vice president also called Donald Trump on Tuesday “to tell him directly that she was happy that he is safe and sound,” a White House official said. The conversation between the Democratic presidential candidate and her Republican rival was “cordial and brief.” “I told him what I have already said publicly: there is no place for violence in our country. […] “We can and should have healthy debates, discussions and disagreements, but not resort to violence,” the 59-year-old Democrat later reported in an interview in Philadelphia with three reporters from the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ).

For Donald Trump, the suspect arrested Sunday in Florida for the alleged assassination attempt against him, “adheres to the speech of Biden and Harris and acts accordingly.” “Because of this speech of the communist left, bullets are flying and it’s only going to get worse,” according to the 78-year-old Republican.

Billie Eilish Support

The billionaire is scheduled to attend a public meeting on Tuesday in Flint, a city left devastated by the auto industry crisis and infamous for a massive lead-contamination scandal in its drinking water.

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are crisscrossing the six or seven swing states, while the Democrat seems to benefit from a slight ascendancy in the polls since the debate on September 10, during which she generally dominated her opponent. “If we look at the polls conducted after the debate and those conducted before, the dynamic in favor of Harris is clear,” wrote Tuesday a specialist of the site Five Thirty Eight, which aggregates and analyzes many opinion polls, while pointing out however that this trend was precarious.

The candidate, already endorsed by star Taylor Swift, received the support of an immensely popular pop artist, Billie Eilish, on Tuesday. The singer, in a message to her 119 million followers on Instagram, which quickly garnered more than a million likes, declared that she would vote for the Democrat and her running mate Tim Walz “because they are fighting to protect our reproductive freedom, our planet and our democracy.”
