Harris says Trump’s rifle comments about Liz Cheney are ‘disqualifying’

Vice President Kamala Harris Friday claimed former President Trump's Thursday remarks about Liz Cheney being a "war hawk" who wouldn't want "guns trained on her face" in war "disqualifying."

She called Cheney, who has endorsed Harris and has been campaigning with her, a "true patriot who has shown extraordinary courage in putting country above party. Trump is increasingly, however, someone who considers his political opponents the enemy, is permanently out for revenge and is increasingly unstable and unhinged." 

In calling Cheney a "radical war hawk" at an event in Arizona on Thursday, Trump said: "Let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face. They're all war hawks when they're sitting in Washington in a nice building saying, ‘Oh, gee, well, let's send 10,000 troops into the mouths of the enemies,’ but she’s a stupid person and I used to have meetings with a lot of people and she always wanted to go to war with people."
