Vice President Harris delivered a scorching condemnation of former President Trump’s conviction in the New York hush money trial during her Tuesday interview on ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”.
Harris underscored the gravity of the situation, highlighting the unanimous decision reached by a jury of 12 peers after a thorough and meticulous six-week deliberation process. With a hint of irony, she remarked, “Those who engage in deceitful behavior often dislike being held accountable,” alluding to Trump’s guilty verdict on all 34 felony counts.
Harris’s statements coincide with the Biden-Harris campaign’s intensified criticism of Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee.
President Biden also joined the criticism on Monday, characterizing Trump as “clearly unstable” and warning of the potential dangers he poses in a second term. Biden suggested that Trump’s motivation for running is to avoid accountability for his criminal convictions.
The conviction has become a rallying cry for the Biden-Harris campaign, with national polls indicating a tight race between Biden and Trump. Harris’s comments demonstrate the administration’s unwavering dedication to holding Trump accountable for his actions.
As the campaign gains momentum, the impact of Trump’s legal issues on his presidential bid remains uncertain. However, one thing is clear: the White House is not hesitant to call out Trump’s wrongdoing.
