Harris praises Kamala Harris' character, takes dig at Trump
Lauding Harris for her “character, experience, and vision to lead us forward,” Hillary Clinton gave a brief inside about her presence at the grant event tonight.
She said that she will uphold Harris's moral integrity during her speech at the convention.
She will discuss her history with Harris during the convention, describing themselves as “young lawyers helping children who were abused or neglected.” "That kind of work changes you. Those kids stay with you. Kamala carries with her the hopes of every child she protected, every family she helped, every community she served.”
Clinton, who lost the presidential race to Trump in 2026, made a comparison between Harris and Trump, asserting that “Kamala cares about kids, families, and America. Donald only cares about himself.”
She recalled Harris' five-word bold statement on her first day in court – “Kamala Harris, for the people” and stated, “That’s something Donald Trump will never understand.”
