Miami.- United States Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump doubled down Sunday on his attacks on Democratic counterpart rival Kamala Harris at a rally in the key state of Georgia.
«Go away. Go away. You’re fired,» after calling her «the worst vice president in the history» of the country.
«Kamala talks about fixing the economy, but why doesn’t she do it? She’s not going to do anything. She’s incapable of doing it. Her plan will impose the largest tax increase in US history on families,» the former president said in the city of Macon, in the swing state of Georgia.
He then ridiculed the Democratic presidential candidate for having said in a recent television interview that she would not do anything different from what President Joe Biden did.
«Is our country 90 percent on the wrong path, the highest in the history of our country, and she says ‘oh, I wouldn’t do anything different’?» Trump said, two days before the presidential election.
The former president held rallies in three small towns in decisive ‘swing’ states to mobilize, in particular, rural voters, a significant part of his electoral base.
On Sunday morning in Lititz, Pennsylvania – the swing state that provides the most electoral votes at 19 – Trump said he should not have left the White House after losing the 2020 elections, a defeat he has never recognized. In the evening in Macon, he said Tuesday «will be Liberation Day» for the US.
He accused Harris of leading a Democratic campaign based solely on «hate» and «demonization.»
The two central themes that Trump returned to again and again during his rally in Georgia were illegal immigration, which has turned the US into «an occupied country,» and the economy, which suffers from «rampant inflation.»
«We will manage inflation. We will drill, drill. We will pay off the debt. We will reduce your taxes even more. We will get the biggest tax cut in history,» said Trump, who added that this week the US had «the worst jobs report in modern history, with only 12,000 anemic jobs created.»
Trump and Harris continued to wage an intense battle Sunday for a handful of key swing states, with polls showing a very tight scenario.
This close fight has caused both political rivals to focus in recent days on the seven swing states: Pennsylvania, which provides the most electoral votes; North Carolina and Georgia with 16, Michigan with 15), Arizona with 11, Wisconsin with 10 and Nevada with six.
The average of polls compiled by FiveThirtyEight show technical ties and within the margin of error between Trump and Harris, so victory could be determined by very narrow margins or require recounts to see who reaches the necessary 270 electoral votes.
With polls showing a technical tie in the seven key states, everything is open.
