Donald Trump on Sunday repeated his personal insults about Vice President Kamala Harris’ mental state as some GOP allies urged him to stay on message and avoid such attacks after he made similar remarks at a rally the night before. “Joe Biden became mentally impaired. It’s sad, but lying Kamala Harris, honestly, I believe she was born that way,” the former president said at Sunday’s rally in Erie, Pennsylvania, reprising attacks from the night before in Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin, where he said, “Kamala is mentally impaired.” Blaming Harris for illegal immigration taking place under the Biden administration, Trump on Saturday went on to say, “If you think about it, only a mentally disabled person could’ve allowed this to happen to our country.” On Sunday morning, some Republicans said the former president should to stick to the issues — a plea they have made repeatedly during his third presidential run. Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, a top Trump ally, told CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union” that he did not think Harris was mentally impaired but that “she’s crazy liberal.” “And here’s what I would tell President Trump: When people look at the state of play, they trust you on the economy, the border, inflation and foreign policy by wide margins. Focus on those,” the South Carolina Republican said.
