Donald Trump made a significant public appearance at a Turning Point Action summit in West Palm Beach, Florida, where he criticized Vice President Kamala Harris during his speech. This marked his first public event since an assassination attempt that left him with a graze on his ear, which he revealed by appearing without a bandage for the first time.
Trump did not hold back in his remarks, labeling Harris a “bum” and emphasizing her perceived failures as Vice President, particularly in her role as the “Border Czar” amid rising immigration issues.
During his address, Trump expressed his disdain for Harris, calling her “worse than Joe Biden” and asserting that she is “much more liberal” than the President. His comments indicated a clear strategy to target Harris as a key opponent in the upcoming 2024 presidential race.

Kamala Harris
Trump’s rhetoric highlighted his belief that Harris is a significant figure in the Democratic party, especially after she secured enough delegate support to be named the nominee.
Trump also took aim at Harris’s name pronunciation, mocking it as part of his speech. He mentioned that there are multiple ways to pronounce her name, claiming to be indifferent about the inaccuracies he has used in the past. This continued play on words seemed to resonate with the audience, further illustrating Trump’s combative approach toward his political opponents.
In addition to his jabs at Harris, Trump reflected on the recent assassination attempt that left him with an injury on his ear. He noted that he had removed the bandage specifically for the event, joking about his recovery and the need to present himself to the audience without the bandage. This moment served to both humanize him and reinforce his resilience in the face of adversity.
As the political landscape shifts following President Biden’s decision to step aside and endorse Harris as the Democratic nominee, Trump has ramped up his attacks. He has labeled Harris as “Lyin Kamala Harris” and has described her as “vicious and dumb,” characterizing her traits as a “bad combination.”
Meanwhile, Harris has begun to counterattack, criticizing Trump during her campaign rallies, indicating a fierce battle ahead in the 2024 election.
