Harris offers closing argument, promises protective presidency and fairness beyond Biden’s administration

Washington: Democratic Presidential candidate Kamala Harris offered her campaign’s closing argument on Tuesday from the Ellipse, near capitol grounds. She expressed pride of being the vice president less than Joe Biden’s presidency, Harris emphasized that her presidency will probably be different because the nation has new challenges in recent years.

In her address, Harris basically is termed herself a “uniter”, an advocate of the working people and a fierce protector and voiced her opposition to policies favoring the rich, contrasting herself with former President Donald Trump who she basically is termed as a “divider” and accused him of being “liable to flattery and favours”.

“I in truth have been honoured to function Joe Biden’s Vice President,” Harris said, “but I may bring my very own experiences and ideas to the Oval Place of business. My presidency will probably be different, it is because challenges we face are different. Our top priority as a nation four years ago became to end the pandemic and rescue the economy. Now our biggest challenge is to lower costs, costs that were rising even earlier than the pandemic, and which may well be still too high”.

Though, Trump and his campaign have sought Harris to the failures and shortcomings of the administration of Biden. She has struggled to distance herself from the President without looking disloyal. Harris has made few appearances with the former President Barack Obama.

In a virtually 30 minute speech, Kamala Harris contrasted her values and missions with Trump’s approach of dealing with social issues. She raised concern that the world leaders see Donald Trump as an “easy mark, easy to manipulate with flattery or favour” adding that autocrats like Russian  President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong (Un) are rooting for him on this election. She promised to uphold security, advance national interest and make certain the U. S. of America will be forever a champion of liberty world wide.
