'She's Crazy': Republicans Attack Shift From Joe Biden To Kamala Harris

The vice president is facing Republican attacks befitting a Democratic presidential front-runner.
The Democratic party baton has not officially passed from Joe Biden to Kamala Harris, but already, the vice president is facing Republican attacks befitting a presidential front-runner.
Only moments after Biden announced he would not be seeking reelection on Sunday, upending the 2024 race, GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump and his allies unleashed an offensive against Harris, seeking to tie her to Biden’s record on immigration and criticizing her views as too liberal.
“Kamala was in on it. She covered up Joe’s obvious mental decline,” said a narrator in an ad released Sunday by a Trump-supporting super PAC. “Kamala knew Joe couldn’t do the job, so she did it. Look what she got done: a border invasion, runaway inflation, the American Dream dead.”
Trump, the GOP’s presidential nominee, also previewed coming attacks against Harris at a campaign rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan, on Saturday.
“I call her Laffin’ Kamala. You ever watch her laugh? She’s crazy. You can tell a lot by a laugh… She’s nuts,” Trump said in his first rally since becoming his party’s standard-bearer.
