In response to Trump’s criticism, Harris defends democratic values.
Vice President Kamala Harris delivered a speech in Washington, D.C., attempting to counter recent criticisms from former President Donald Trump and underscore her stance on preserving democratic values.
As Trump addressed his supporters with familiar themes of skepticism toward U.S. institutions, Harris focused on unity and the importance of upholding the principles of democracy.
Harris argued that American democracy is at a critical juncture, urging citizens to remain engaged and defend the democratic processes that define the nation.
