CHICAGO ― In a speech that drew wild applause and left some in tears, Vice President Kamala Harris on Thursday formally accepted her party’s nomination for president, laid out her vision for the country and wasted no time spelling out how dangerous a reelected Donald Trump would be for women, middle-class Americans and the rule of law itself.
Harris cast herself as a seasoned fighter, drawing a through-line from her years as a prosecutor fighting for women and children against abusers, to her stint as the California attorney general taking on big banks and gun cartels, to her fights to win tough elections, to her current fight to protect American democracy from Trump.
“In many ways, Donald Trump is an unserious man,” Harris said. “The consequences of putting Donald Trump back in the White House are extremely serious.”
