‘No one is safe in Biden’s America,’ Trump said

2016 Election Senate Harris Kamala Harris

President Donald Trump’s campaign has been planning for appropriate comments and attacks ever since Joe Biden chose California Senator Kamala Harris for his running mate. After launching a birther controversy about Harris, Trump on Friday said, wish Biden had picked ‘beauty’ Pocahontas instead, referring to Elizabeth Warren. Pocahontas is the jibe Trump has been using against Warren, in reference to her Native American roots. 

Trump also attacked Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his running mate Kamala Harris saying, “no one will be safe in Biden's America” adding that Harris is a “step worse”. “If Joe Biden would become the President, he would immediately pass legislation to gut every single police department in America. “She is of Indian heritage. I have more Indians than she has," he added.

As per an ANI report, Trump, in his speech referred to Kamala Harris as being hostile to police, and suggested that she and Joe Biden were at the centre of “a left-wing war on cops”. “This guy has been taking your dignity away and your respect…,” Trump said.  

Trump went on to say that Harris treated Biden very badly during the Democrat debates. "I watched those debates. They were very boring, but they were debates nevertheless. And I watched, you know, pretty good parts of them, and she treated Biden worse than anybody else, by far. There was nobody — including Pocahontas — nobody treated Biden so badly as Kamala," he said and added that he did not feel threatened by Harris’ nomination at all.

In recent weeks, Trump has repeatedly asserted that Biden supports defunding the police.
