Donald Trump says China's leader will bully Kamala Harris 'like a baby'

Donald Trump said Thursday that China's leader would handle Vice President Kamala Harris like a baby if she's elected to the White House, as the former president and his top allies increasingly have moved to infantilise the Democratic nominee. If somehow Kamala wins, she'd have to deal with Xi Jinping," conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt said of the Chinese president. How would he handle her? Trump replied, Like a baby. He'd take all the candy away very quickly, Trump continued. She wouldn't have any idea what happened. It would be like a grand chess master playing a beginner. Trump has built his political career around name-calling, inventing jeers for his opponents going back to his first run for president in 2016, when he slammed Republican primary rivals like Low Energy Jeb Bush, the former governor of Florida, and Little" Marco Rubio, the Florida senator. The former president also has a long history of belittling women. But Trump has unleashed a special array of personal of

Harris, Trump shift to podcasts moving away from legacy media to campaign

Among the legacy news outlets that have come up empty in their efforts to interview Kamala Harris and Donald Trump during the general election campaign: NPR, The New York Times, PBS and The Washington Post. Yet Harris chose to meet with Alex Cooper for her Call Her Daddy podcast and talk a little Bay Area basketball with the fellows on All the Smoke. Trump rejected 60 Minutes, but has hung out with the bros on the Bussin' With the Boys and Flagrant. During this truncated campaign, some of the traditional giants of journalism are being pushed aside. The growing popularity of podcasts and their ability to help candidates in a tight race target a specific sliver of the electorate is a big reason why. There are certainly exceptions. Harris spoke to NBC News' Hallie Jackson on Tuesday and held a CNN town hall on Wednesday. But political columnist John Heilemann of Puck noticed what he called an ancient, dying beast railing against the diminishment of its status and stature in the new ...

Launching a scathing attack on her Republican rival former president Donald Trump, Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris on Wednesday charged that he is unfit to lead the country. Yesterday we learned that Donald Trump's former chief of staff, John Kelly, a retired four-star general, confirmed that while Donald Trump was president, he said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had, Harris told reporters at her official residence in the American Capital. Donald Trump said that because he does not want a military that is loyal to the United States Constitution. He wants a military that is loyal to him. He wants a military who will be loyal to him personally, one that will obey his orders even when he tells them to break the law or abandon their oath to the Constitution of the United States, she said. In just the past week, Donald Trump has repeatedly called his fellow Americans the enemy from within, and even said that he would use the United States military

Harris to make closing argument at Ellipse outside White House on Oct 29

Vice President Kamala Harris, who is the presidential nominee of the ruling Democratic party, plans to make a closing argument of the electrifying election campaign at the iconic Ellipse, the park just outside the White House on October 29, exactly a week ahead of the November 5 general elections. Expected to be attended by thousands of her supporters, Harris (60) plans to make a passionate appeal to the nation and urge her fellow countrymen to vote for a new vision and turn the page during her address from the historic Ellipse on Tuesday, October 29, multiple media reports said Wednesday. The oval-shaped park is near the White House South Lawn. In doing so, Harris is expected to draw the contrast between her campaign and that of her Republican rival former president Donald Trump, 78. This is the same place where Trump had addressed a rally on January 6, 2021. Following the rally, thousands of his supporters marched towards the Capitol Hill, resulting in one of the darkest moments i

Trump admired generals like Hitler, claims former chief of staff Kelly

Donald Trump's longest-serving chief of staff is warning that the Republican presidential nominee meets the definition of a fascist and that while in office, Trump suggested that Nazi leader Adolf Hitler did some good things". The comments from John Kelly, the retired Marine general who worked for Trump in the White House from 2017 to 2019, came in interviews with both The New York Times and The Atlantic. They build on a a growing series of warnings from former top Trump officials as the election enters its final weeks. Kelly has long been critical of Trump and previously accused him of calling veterans killed in combat suckers and losers. Still, his new warnings came just two weeks before Election Day, as Trump seeks a second term vowing to dramatically expand his use of the military at home and suggesting he would use force to go after Americans he considers enemies from within. He commented more than once that, You know, Hitler did some good things, too,' Kelly recalled to The ..

Around 21 million Americans have already voted in US presidential polls

Two weeks before the US presidential elections, as many as 21 million Americans have already cast their vote in the middle of an intense election campaign between the two candidates: Vice President Kamala Harris from the Democratic Party and the former president Donald Trump from the Republican Party. According to data from the Election Lab at the University of Florida, about 7.8 million votes have come in through early in-person methods while the remaining over 13.3 million votes have been cast through mail ballots. Unlike the Indian general elections, wherein campaigning stops 36 hours before the start of the voting, both campaigning and voting go parallel to each other at least for about four weeks. The US presidential elections are scheduled to be held on November 5. Political pundits say the winner would be decided on the results of the polls in seven battleground States: Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia. Early voting is a unique
