Following her loss, Kamala Harris re-surfaces to voice her opinion on Trump
In a bold move, Vice President Kamala Harris is set to make her first significant public appearance since her election loss to Donald Trump. On Wednesday, she'll deliver the keynote address at the Emerge 20th Anniversary Gala, taking aim at Trump's policies and how they allegedly failed the American people.
Harris has kept a low profile since vacating the vice presidency in January, opting to stay out of the political limelight and eschewing public criticisms of Trump like other prominent Democrats. However, that's all about to change.
The former vice president is expected to slam Trump's economic policies, underscoring the chaos they've caused in the markets and the fears of a trade war they've ignited. She'll also accuse Trump of disregarding court orders, pushing the boundaries of presidential power, and attempting to intimidate independent institutions like universities.
Trump's approval rating has plummeted. According to a recent NBC News poll, 55% of adults disapprove of his performance, with several other national polls echoing similar results. Even Fox News, one of Trump's favorites, has shown disapproval, with Trump's approval rating at 40%.
The former senior advisor for Harris predicts that the vice president's speech will strike a chord, particularly given Trump's dwindling approval ratings and the growing discontent among voters. "There's a clamoring for her voice right now," the advisor noted. "No one can better prosecute the case while inspiring a call to action than the former vice president."
Harris' speech will also emphasize the need for courage in the face of mounting political challenges. She'll draw on her recent themes of fear and courage, encouraging listeners to stand up against Trump and his policies.
The speech also serves to highlight the 20-year legacy of Emerge, an organization dedicated to training Democratic women candidates, particularly those from marginalized communities. By aligning herself with Emerge, Harris signals her commitment to empowering women in politics and encouraging civic engagement.
