At the Democratic National Convention, Kamala Harris officially accepted the nomination for President, emphasizing her commitment to protecting social programs and addressing border security issues. Former President Donald Trump criticized Harris's record on border security and her tenure as Vice President, particularly focusing on a 'migrant crime epidemic' impacting swing states. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. endorsed Trump and joined him at a rally, citing shared goals like addressing chronic diseases and opposing the war in Ukraine. Media coverage highlighted the DNC's higher viewership compared to the Republican convention, reflecting significant public interest. Analysts noted Trump's reactive behavior to Harris's rise and ongoing attempts to re-enter the political discourse.
