At a rally on Saturday, September 28, Donald Trump escalated his derogatory comments about Vice President Kamala Harris, asserting that she was born "mentally impaired."
Speaking to supporters in Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin, the former president made these unfounded claims as a means to challenge Harris's leadership on immigration issues.
“Joe Biden became mentally impaired. Kamala was born that way,” Trump stated, prompting laughter from the audience. “She was born that way.”
He further remarked, “Only someone mentally impaired could allow this to happen to our country. Anyone would know this,” referring to the recent surge of migrants entering the United States.
Blaming Harris for the increase in migrant crossings has become a key aspect of Trump's campaign, as he contends it is her duty as vice president to address the situation.
