Kamala Harris kicks off campaign for US president
23/07/2024
Kamala Harris launched her campaign for president on Tuesday, framing the race with Republican nominee Donald Trump as a choice between freedom and chaos.
From an event hall in suburban Milwaukee, Ms Harris told a cheering crowd: “This campaign is not just about us versus Donald Trump. This is about who we fight for.”
“We believe in the sacred freedom to vote,” she said. “We believe that every person in our nation should have the freedom to live safe from the terror of gun violence. And we trust women to make decisions about their own bodies.”
Mr Trump, by contrast, she painted as someone found guilty of fraud, liable for sexual abuse and who conjures “chaos, fear and hate”.
“Do we believe in the promise of America? And are we ready to fight for it?” she asked.
