Former President Donald Trump trashed Vice President Kamala Harris in a Thursday press conference — saying she was picked for “politically correct” reasons and “can’t do an interview.”
Trump, 78, said that Harris, 59, was “the most unpopular vice president” and became the Democratic presidential nominee “because of political reasons, or because of being politically correct, even though she never received a vote.”
The ex-president said that Harris was “nasty” to President Biden, 81, when they faced off in the 2020 primaries and was “calling him a racist” — and claimed that Biden, who stepped aside on July 21 and endorsed Harris, is “a very angry man right now.”
