Trump on Kamala Harris

Former President Trump held a rally in California's Coachella Valley, targeting Vice President Kamala Harris and criticizing her record on crime, inflation, and immigration. Trump described California as a 'paradise lost' under Harris and Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom, claiming that her policies have led to increased crime and illegal immigration. He positioned his campaign as a solution to the state's issues, vowing to 'save' California and restore it to greatness. This visit is part of a broader Republican strategy to contest competitive House races in the state, where Democrats currently hold an advantage. Amidst Trump's attacks, Harris's team is reportedly strategizing on how to distance her from President Biden, as polling suggests a need for new direction within the party. The outcomes of these races in California will be pivotal in shaping the national political landscape leading up to the elections.
