Until the last day, 60-year-old Vice President Kamala Harris and 78-year-old former President Donald Trump will continue to campaign –
OR Kamala Harris and Donald Trump start today, Saturday in full force the last weekend of the campaign for the US presidential election, the outcome of which is unpredictable and highly anticipated.
The Democratic vice president who may be the first woman to become president of the United States will find herself again in key states that will determine the outcome of Tuesday’s election: in Georgia (south), North Carolina (southeast) and Michigan (north), Harris will try to convince the last undecideds that she is the “antidote” to the Republican former president, as its VP nominee Tim Walsh put it yesterday.
Last night, at three consecutive rallies in Wisconsin, another critical state, Harris called for “the page to finally be turned on a decade of Donald Trump” that has shaken American democracy and that has “exhausted us.”
The populist leader, with increasingly authoritarian rhetoric, convicted and facing charges in several criminal and civil cases, hopes to realize his dream of returning to the White House to promote his “America First” policies.
During campaign rallies today in Virginia and North Carolina, Trump is expected to present a bleak picture of a US that has been “overrun” by millions of illegal immigrants, the “criminals” he has promised to deport. Yesterday in Michigan, the New York billionaire accused the administration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris of failing economically. He predicted a “1929 recession” if his opponent is elected.
Until the last day, the 60-year-old vice president and the 78-year-old former president will continue to campaign: on Monday night, she will be in the critical state of Pennsylvania, he in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
The election is held on Tuesday, a non-working day for the US, and 70 million Americans have already mailed in their ballots or voted early by voting.
However the atmosphere is highly electrified, with a daily political and media confrontation and fears of incidents after November 5, especially if the result is inconclusive as all the polls predict.
In a country politically divided, nothing seems to be able to move the lines between the two rivals that everything separates them.
Trying to attract tens of thousands of voters in Pennsylvania, Michigan or Arizona, which hold the ‘key’ of the election, Harris and Trump are escalating their verbal confrontation.
For the former conservative president (2017-2021), his opponent “loathes” Americans, while according to the current vice president, her opponent is “volatile and obsessed with revenge” for the 2020 election, which he never he didn’t admit he lost.
The 2024 campaign, on which the eyes of the whole planet, especially Europe and the Middle East, have been out of the ordinary: in the space of a few weeks this summer, the 81-year-old president Joe Biden withdrew from the race to anoint Democrats and gave his seat to Harris while Trump was the target of two assassination attempts.
Since then, the two rivals have been doing everything they can to woo women, young people and African-American, Arab-Muslim and Latino voters.
Harris has garnered the support of many figures in the political and financial arenas — including former Republican officials — as well as movie, music and sports stars such as Beyoncé, Bruce Springsteen, Jennifer Lopez and LeBron James.
And today, former first lady, the wildly popular Michelle Obama, will be at a campaign event in Philadelphia with singer Alicia Keys.
Tuesday’s election could prove so inconclusive that it will likely take days for a definitive nationwide result. Donald Trump’s entourage has already started fueling rumors of election irregularities and even “fraud”.
