Kamala Harris delivered her acceptance speech to Democratic delegates at the DNC in Chicago on Thursday, telling an excited crowd that broke into chants of "U.S.A." that they were in "a fight for America's future."

Harris, who is now the Democratic party's official candidate for the 2024 election, made a direct plea, warning that Donald Trump would "take away reproductive freedom" and was a threat to "fundamental freedoms," including gun safety, LGBTQ+ rights, action on climate change, and voting rights.

Trump posted on his Truth Social account around 37 times during Harris's roughly half-hour speech, telling his followers he was "getting ready to be fair but critical of Comrade Kamala Harris."
