Trump Criticizes Harris; Harris Gains Momentum

Donald Trump's attempts to undermine Kamala Harris have largely backfired, with criticisms often perceived as misogynistic or racist. Harris's recent polling success, particularly in key battleground states, has further exacerbated Trump's frustrations. His attacks have ranged from calling Harris a 'phony' during an interview with Elon Musk on X to bizarrely claiming that no one knows her last name. Harris's campaign has effectively leveraged these missteps, mocking Trump's technical difficulties during his conversation with Musk and highlighting his out-of-touch online presence. Additionally, a bombshell report revealed that Trump privately used derogatory slurs against Harris, although his campaign denies these allegations. Meanwhile, Harris has bolstered her campaign by selecting Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate, who has shown growing favorability among voters despite Republican criticism.
