Trump blasts ‘all talk’ Harris in furious Truth Social ‘fact check’ of DNC speech

Donald Trump couldn’t let the Democratic National Convention end on Thursday without one last attempt to grab the spotlight from Kamala Harris.

The Vice President became the first Black woman to headline a major party’s nomination for the presidency on the convention stage Thursday evening as she officially took on the mantle of the Democratic Party. She delivered a moving speech that touched on her childhood while also broaching the topic of her 2024 opponent and the threat she says that he poses to the country’s future.

All the while, Trump himself was firing back — not in front of the cameras, but on Truth Social, his social media platform largely populated by his own diehard supporters.

The ex-president fired off a total of three dozen Truth Social posts during Harris’s address, which itself lasted less than an hour. Her address, energetic and punctuated by boisterous cheers, sharply contrasted Trump’s own acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention last month, which touched on somber notes at the beginning as he spoke of his attempted assassination but quickly evolved into a ramble which lasted 92 minutes.

While Trump’s Truth Social barrage was billed ahead of time as a “fact check”, it was instead a collection of recycled attack lines and what appeared to be random thoughts spun off from the ex-president’s mind.

“IS SHE TALKING ABOUT ME?” Trump questioned, seemingly in anger, at one point in her address. He didn’t elaborate further.

Other responses from Trump to lines from Harris’s speech were more direct and in-depth. They fell on themes Trump’s advisors clearly prepared for attacks — abortion rights and the bipartisan border security compromise that he instructed his allies to kill in Congress earlier
