President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have been criticized for their divisive rhetoric, particularly targeting former President Donald Trump.

Harris accused Trump of undermining democracy and supporting dictatorial behavior.

“President Biden and I are guided by a fundamental belief: We work for you, the American people. And every day, we fight for you. Sadly, however, that is not true for everyone. Case in point: Donald Trump. Former President Trump has made clear time and time again his fight is not for the people. He fights for himself,” Harris said.

“He openly talks about his intention to weaponize the Department of Justice. He openly says that he is, quote, ‘proud,’ that he overturned Roe v. Wade — proud that he took the freedom of choice from millions of American women.”

“For years, the former President has stoked the fires of hate and bigotry and racism and xenophobia for his own power and political gain. He accused immigrants of, quote, ‘poisoning the blood of our country.’ And after neo-Nazis marched in Charlottesville, he said there were, quote, ‘very fine people on both sides,'” she said.

Notably, some of her claims have been debunked.

“The former President openly talks about his admiration for dictators and has vowed that he will be a dictator on ‘day one,'” Harris said. “Understand what dictators do. Dictators put journalists in jail. Dictators suspend elections. Dictators take your rights.”

“And as the great Maya Angelou once said, ‘When someone tells you who they are, believe them the first time.’ Well, the former President has told us who he is. And it is on us, then, to recognize the profound threat he poses to our democracy and to our freedoms.”

“And let us recognize: There are extremists across our country who have been inspired, encouraged, and even cowered by the former President,” she said.

Harris remains unpopular, with a low approval rating. Concerns about Biden’s age and health have also been raised, with reports suggesting that his potential successor, Harris, is not a favorable option for many.
