Donald Trump has launched a scathing attack on Kamala Harris following her appearance on The View.
During the show, where she was promoting her forthcoming memoir titled “107 Days,” Harris described Trump as a ‘con man’ and suggested that the 2024 election would be a tightly contested one.
In response, Trump took to his social media platform, Truth Social, unleashing a capital-laden tirade against the former Vice President. His post was typical of his outspoken style, yet it did not directly address Harris’ accusation of him being a ‘con man’ featured in her new book.
Instead, Trump’s ire seemed to be directed at Harris’ comment about the competitiveness of the 2024 election.
He took particular offense to her assertion, going so far as to label Harris as ‘dumb as a rock’. On his Truth Social account, Trump stated: “Kamala Harris, who is DUMB AS A ROCK, is going around and using, as a standard part of her Speech on why she lost the Election, that 2024 was the “closest Presidential Election in the 21st Century.” Everyone knows this is a lie, and was covered as such by Fox News!”
He added: “I won the Electoral College, 312-226, a LANDSLIDE, Counties Nationwide, 2,600 to 525, a LANDSLIDE, all seven Swing States, a LANDSLIDE, and, despite the fact that California’s Fake Mail In Ballots came in at ridiculous numbers (It was RIGGED!), I still won the Popular Vote by MILLIONS! Bush, as an example, won the Election by 537 Votes, and many other Elections were very close.”
Trump concluded by demanding an apology: “Kamala’s ‘closest in the 21st Century’ soundbite was, like everything else in the Democrat Party, A TOTAL LIE! I expect an apology. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
While Trump did win all the swing states and their electoral college votes, the margins in many of these states were quite narrow.
In particular, the states Trump managed to flip saw slim margins with Michigan at 1.4 percent, Wisconsin at 0.9 percent, and Georgia at a 2.2 percent difference.
This led to a comfortable victory in the electoral college, but the narrow margins in these pivotal states suggest a closer contest rather than the overwhelming landslide some of Trump’s supporters claimed.
