President Trump kept up his attacks on Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), who has named former Vice President Joe Biden’s running mate for the Democratic presidential ticket, saying early Wednesday she is “the kind of opponent everyone dreams of.”

“@KamalaHarris started strong in the Democrat Primaries, and finished weak, ultimately fleeing the race with almost zero support," Trump tweeted.

"That’s the kind of opponent everyone dreams of!”

Harris ended her presidential campaign last December after struggling to convert early enthusiasm into sustained support.

Trump's tweet came after his reelection released two ads attacking Harris, painting her as a far-left candidate. In an ad sent out on Twitter quickly after the Democratic ticket was finalized, the Trump campaign dubbed them "Slow Joe and Phony Kamala.”

In a statement, the Trump campaign attacked Harris over swipes she took at Biden during the primary debate and her history as a prosecutor, which has drawn criticism from progressives.

Harris will be the first woman of color on a major party’s presidential ticket after she is nominated during the Democratic National Convention next week.

Obviously Joe’s concerned about Trump taking California, so the candidate from an east coast mini state chose from that west coast mega state to protect his west flank.</S>

Someone said that Trump in past years had donated to her campaign. If so, he should use that to poke fun at her:

"You all know that I used to be a democrat before I saw the light. I know politicians like KH. She's just another pay to play democrat who spends her time shaking down people like me. That's one of the reasons I decided to run myself. I got tired of all the grifters. KH had no problem taking my money back then. You'd think she'd show a little gratitude."

Senator Rand Paul
@RandPaul
Remember when
@TulsiGabbard
reminded Kamala Harris of her terrible record of locking up thousands of young minorities, of being an overzealous drug warrior and of her record as a harsh prosecutor?

I do.

I must disagree with Trump on this. #1, she is black. #2, a black woman. 100% liberal whites, and 95% of blacks will vote for that reason alone because she will be president when Biden steps down sometime (likely) during his first term.

Where is Jeb and Mittens to publicly denounce DJT for being mean to the elderly and to a woman of color?

If Juan McCain had gone after the Bamster with any political gusto, the country might have avoided 8 years of terrible policy (Obamacare) and moral decline...

Glad to see that DJT is pouncing and telling the truth about this phony and communist...

We know that the Bamster rose very quickly through the Left’s ranks as the son of the CIA...

My guess is that Cameltoe was also targeted from an early age to be positioned for the Presidency...

She is the female Bamster, and will be the Left’s enforcer once installed as POTUS...

As Rush always says, “Don’t doubt me on this”....

If ANITFA/BLM were not doing their level best to destroy this country, in the literal sense, then I and most folks would be 100% with you on that statement. But, these are some strange times. And I think, as the year goes on and if the President’s numbers(which I believe are incredibly manipulated) keep getting better, as they appear to be, the violence and chaos will only increase.

I’m doubting there will be an election, actually. I’m betting that the aforementioned group will show up on election day and start destroying polling places. Then the Dem’s will try to figure something out in court. If you think about it, it would play right into the hands of someone like Abrams.

Governors/mayors have to put cops or National Guard at polling places. Voter intimidation/ Voter Suppression.

Liberal areas have the election, everything gets destroyed and they say that everyone voted for Biden/Harris. Prove them wrong.

Blacks generally don’t like Harris, that’s one reason she did so poorly in the primaries.

It was a very stupid pick for Biden.

What's even better is that Biden started weak and beak a weak field and remains weak.

Biden isn’t capable of picking anything besides his nose and his rump. This decision was made by another entity.

Biden chose a reject...........

<><> Kamala's the one primary candidate who received ZERO delegates from her own party.

<><>Kamala was rejected by the DNC rank and file,

Joe's no great shakes by himself but thinks Kamala'll boost the ticket.

The campaign trail will be the first time Harris has wore a mask that didn’t have a rubber ball attached.

Yes, that's exactly what this is about.

Harris isn't Trumps opponent.......Biden is! Using Harris’s own words to knock Biden is the way to go.....Not how the media is trying to frame this that she's Trumps opponent.
