Vice President Kamala Harris gave her “closing argument” speech for American voters on Tuesday evening, speaking from the Ellipse in Washington, D.C., to remind Americans of the events of Jan. 6, 2021.

Trump campaign National Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt criticized the performance in a strong rebuke of the vice president’s weak approach.

“Kamala Harris is lying, name-calling, and clinging to the past to avoid admitting the truth — the migrant crime crisis, sky-high inflation, and raging world wars are the result of her terrible policies,” Leavitt stated.

“Kamala’s first day in office was over 1,300 days ago, and she has spent the past four years working hand-in-hand with Joe Biden to destroy our country – but now, she is lying about her record because she has zero policy solutions to offer. As for President Trump, his closing argument to the American people is simple: Kamala broke it; he will fix it,” she added.

Despite already allowing millions of migrants to cross the southern border, Harris doubled down on mass amnesty, including some illegal immigrants who have been deported.

Harris also noted that her campaign has not been the normal path for a presidential nominee.

“I recognize this is not been a typical campaign,” she stated.

Harris was instead approved as the Democratic Party’s nominee without a single vote after President Joe Biden ended his reelection campaign.

A separate Trump campaign statement released Tuesday reminded American voters that Trump’s focus is on the issues that matter most.

“While Kamala peddles division, President Trump is honing in on the issues that matter to voters — fixing the economy, securing the border, protecting Americans’ freedoms, and re-establishing America’s strength around the world,” the campaign statement declared.

“It’s one of many reasons why President Trump will emerge victorious on Tuesday,” it continued.

As RSBN reported Tuesday, the latest speech by Harris comes after USA Today revealed on Monday that it will not endorse Harris despite endorsing President Joe Biden in 2020.

The news adds to a growing list of mainstream publications backing away from the Harris-Walz ticket in the final days ahead of the election. Other publications include The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, The Chicago Tribune, The Detroit Free Press and the Minnesota Star Tribune.
