Former US President Donald Trump said that he would return to Pennsylvania’s Butler for a rally where he narrowly survived an assassination attempt. Trump made this announcement on his Truth Social platform, referring to the upcoming event as a “BIG AND BEAUTIFUL RALLY.”
In the meantime, Vice President Kamala Harris concluded her week-long campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination, receiving the endorsement of former President Barack Obama.As the first Black woman and Asian American to hold the position of vice president, Harris quickly garnered support from Democrats after being chosen by President Joe Biden as his successor last Sunday. Recent public opinion polls indicate that Harris is starting to close the gap with Trump’s lead.
According to a Wall Street Journal poll released on Friday, Trump holds a 49% to 47% lead over Harris, with a three-percentage-point margin of error. This marks a shift from the newspaper’s earlier poll this month, which showed Trump leading Biden by 48% to 42%.
Barack and Michelle Obama joined a growing list of prominent Democrats who rallied behind Harris’ White House bid after Biden, at 81 years old, ended his reelection campaign due to pressure from the party. The Obamas expressed their pride in endorsing Harris and their commitment to supporting her throughout the election and into the Oval Office, as seen in an online video posted by the campaign.
Harris, who would become the nation’s first female president if she wins the November 5 election, expressed her gratitude for the endorsement and their long-standing friendship, saying, “Thank you both. It means so much. And we’re gonna have some fun with this too.”
The Obamas remain highly popular figures within the Democratic Party, nearly eight years after leaving office. A Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted earlier this month revealed that 55% of Americans and 94% of Democrats view Michelle Obama favourably, surpassing Harris’ national approval rating of 37% and her 81% approval within the party.
The endorsement from the Obamas has the potential to boost support and fundraising for Harris’ campaign, and it suggests that Barack Obama is likely to actively campaign on her behalf.
