Why Kamala Harris triggers Donald Trump so intensely.
SlateAs Kamala Harris spoke on the last night of the Democratic National Convention, Donald Trump took to Truth Social to ask, “IS SHE TALKING ABOUT ME?” Even for a man notorious for deranged tweets, this was an all-timer. As she delivered her remarks at the DNC, he posted, “WHERE’S HUNTER?” He tried to go after her running mate, Tim Walz, insisting: “Walz was an ASSISTANT Coach, not a COACH.” As Harris’ speech went on and Trump unraveled further, he did what he often does when he wants to vent: He called in to Fox News. When Obama turned the tables and made fun of Trump and his birther conspiracies at the 2011 White House Correspondents’ Dinner, Trump was visibly steamed. And while Harris’ shiny new campaign and the exuberance it brings make headlines, Trump’s campaign is feeling stale, his events filled mostly with die-hards.
