Trump and Harris step up their attacks one month before the presidential election

The Democratic vice-president and the Republican billionaire are increasing their media interventions as Tuesday, November 5, approaches. This Sunday, October 6, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump called each other incompetent or “full of lies”.

One month before the presidential election, Donald Trump and Kamala Harris went blow for blow this Sunday, October 6, calling each other incompetent or “full of lies”, as the race for the White House enters its final stretch.

Guest of the very popular podcast Call Her Daddyto the largely female audience, the Democratic vice-president resumed her denunciation of violence against women and defended the right to abortion, in particular, pointing out the “lies” of Donald Trump, who accused her of being in favor of “executing babies” in the eighth or ninth month of pregnancy.

“It is scandalously inaccurate and insulting to make people believe that this is happening, that women are doing this. This man is full of lies,” she insisted.

While the Republican candidate repeatedly tried to pose as a “protector” of women during his campaign, Kamala Harris recalled that “this is the same one who said that women should be punished for having abortions.”

Abortion is one of the major subjects of the campaign, on which the Democrats intend to capitalize while the ex-president tries for his part to avoid taking a clear position, defending the fact that it is the States which must decide.

This podcast marked the first step in a media marathon that will bring Kamala Harris to speak throughout the week on various prime-time television and radio shows, particularly on evening shows, such as The Howard Stern Show or The Late Show with Stephen Colbertconsidered generally supportive of his campaign.

“I only ask you one thing, go out and vote”

Donald Trump went for the fourth time to Wisconsin, one of the key states, for a meeting in the small town of Juneau, where he rolled out his usual campaign themes, from immigration control to reduction from inflation to taxation, and once again accusing his rival of wanting to pursue a “communist” policy.

But the ex-president went further, judging Kamala Harris “grossly incompetent”, taking as an example the lack of federal response, according to him, to help the populations of the southeast of the United States who have been severely affected by Hurricane Helene.

“This is someone who will steal your fortune and abandon you and your family when the waters rise,” he summed up.

In front of several hundred people, the Republican candidate recalled that early voting was open in Wisconsin: “I only ask you one thing, go out and vote.”

Donald Trump lost Wisconsin in 2020 to Joe Biden. Sunday, he was there for the fourth time in eight days, the day after a triumphant return to Butler, Pennsylvania, where he narrowly escaped an assassination attempt on July 13.

Opinion polls show the two candidates neck and neck, fueling a frantic race to try to convince every voter in the seven so-called “key” states that will decide the outcome of the November 5 election.

The indirect universal suffrage voting method means that in the United States, the presidential election is not decided by the votes cast throughout the country but by those of electors whose number varies depending on the state.

Thus, from Michigan to Arizona via Nevada, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Georgia and North Carolina, the key states where Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are concentrating their campaigns, victory should be decided by a few tens of thousands voice close.
