This remark was seemingly triggered by a Wall Street Journal column by Peggy Noonan that praised Harris’s appearance, describing her as “beautiful” and “radiant.” Trump, however, used the moment to mock the Vice-President, cautioning Republican Senate candidate David McCormick, “David, please don’t ever call a woman beautiful, because that will be the end of your political career.”
Noonan has written about Harris’s appearance in recent weeks, saying that, “Her beauty, plus the social warmth that all who have known her over the years speak of, combines to produce: radiance.”
“She said one thing that got me,” Trump began, seemingly talking about Noonan’s columns.“She said Kamala has one big advantage, she’s a very beautiful woman. She’s a beautiful woman.” The crowd reacted with boos.
He then added, “But I say that I’m much better looking than her. Much better. I’m a better looking person than Kamala,” to cheers from his supporters.
The rally audience erupted in applause as Trump reiterated his comment, drawing out the comparison further.
Trump didn’t stop there. He ridiculed a Time magazine cover featuring Harris, likening her image to iconic actresses like Sophia Loren or Elizabeth Taylor. He also took aim at Harris’s economic policies, branding them the “Maduro plan” and warning that they would “usher communism in the US.”
This attack on Harris is part of a pattern, with Trump recently labeling her “crazy,” a “lunatic,” and questioning her ethnicity. Justifying his sharp words, Trump asserted, “I’m entitled to these personal attacks because she makes me angry, and she’s attacked me as ‘weird.'”
