Trump’s insult to Harris: That she sounds more like ‘Trump than Trump’
Donald Trump has thought up a new insult for his Democratic rival Kamala Harris: that she sounds more like “Trump than Trump.”
In his latest Truth Social rant on Monday, the former president hit out at the vice president by likening her to him and claiming she has “flip-flopped” on her policies.
“Kamala Harris has flip-flopped on virtually every policy she has supported and lived by for her entire career, from the Border to Tips, and the Fake News Media isn’t reporting it,” he wrote on Monday morning.
“She sounds more like Trump than Trump, copying almost everything,” he continued.
“She is conning the American public, and will flip right back. I will MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! There will be no flipping!!!”
Later on Monday, Fox Business host Cheryl Casone claimed Harris is “even copying herself” after showing two clips of the presidential candidate from rallies in Wisconsin and Michigan last Wednesday.
“Is this normal campaigning in politics?” she asked of snippets of the stump speech – a common tactic in politics – and one also employed by Trump.
The bizarre attempt to slam Harris comes off the back of a string of other attacks on the Democratic candidate by Trump, ever since President Joe Biden stepped aside from the ticket and Harris launched her presidential campaign.
A slew of offensive remarks about Harris’s heritage at the National Association of Black Journalists convention even left one Republican strategist declaring the former president was having a very “public nervous breakdown”.
