Trump says Harris is “waging a campaign of demonization and hatred” in his closing message to Georgia voters

Former President Trump accused his 2024 rival, Vice President Kamala Harris, of spreading a message of “hate” during a rally just over a week before Election Day.

Trump will deliver his final message to voters this week and will spend Monday in the key battleground of Georgia for back-to-back events.

“I am running a campaign of solutions to save our country,” the former president said in Atlanta. “Kamala is waging a campaign of demonization and hatred. Seriously, she’s a hater.’

It’s a shot in the arm for the Democratic vice president after she said Trump was “fanning the fuel of hatred and division” during his massive rally at Madison Square Garden on Sunday.

The former president attacked Harris for calling him a “fascist” while criticizing Democrats for comparing his Sunday evening meeting for a Nazi event.

“Kamala labels more than half the country as enemy combatants, calling them all fascists and Nazis. Okay, but she’s a fascist, okay. She is a fascist,” Trump said.

At one point, the crowd erupted into chants of “Lock her up,” directed at Harris, with which Trump chided: “Be nice.”

The former president pushed aside left-wing comparisons between his New York City event and the German Nazis of the 20th century, arguing that the Harris campaign encouraged such rhetoric and that it was the cause of the recent attempts on his life.

“I had a great father. A tough kid. He always said, ‘Never use the word Nazi, never used that word.’ and he said, ‘Never use the word Hitler.’ …And then I understood. And yet they use that word freely,” Trump said. “I am the opposite of a Nazi.”

“This is the kind of outrageous rhetoric that has resulted in two assassination attempts in the last three months.”

During the speech, Trump also made a direct appeal to Georgia voters to continue voting in favor early personal moodwhich runs from October 15 through November 1 in the Peach State.

“Boy, I hear we’re doing well, but I can’t watch. I don’t want to say it because I want you to move on. We have to finish it,” Trump said. “We just have to concentrate.”
