Vice President Kamala Harris slammed former President Donald Trump early at their first debate on Tuesday night during a back-and-forth on the economy.
When asked if Harris would like to respond to Trump’s attacks on the economy with what he called record inflation under the Biden administration, she retorted “let’s talk about what Donald Trump left us.”
Donald Trump left us the worst unemployment since the Great Depression. Donald Trump left us with the worst public health epidemic in a century. Donald Trump left us with the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War. And what we have done is clean up Donald Trump’s mess.”
Harris said she intends to build on Americans’ aspirations and hopes — and then warned Americans will hear the “same old tired playbook.”
“A bunch of lies, grievances and name-calling. What you’re going to hear tonight is a detailed and dangerous plan called Project 2025 that the former president intends on implementing if we are elected again.
