Presidential candidates make final speech to voters this weekend

WASHINGTON (Gray DC) – Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are racing from swing state to swing state during the final weekend of the presidential election season.

Former President Donald Trump will hold a series of rallies on Saturday and Sunday in several battleground states, including North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Georgia. He will also make a stop in a state that Vice President Harris is expected to win: Virginia.

But heading into the weekend, Trump has faced a lot of backlash due to comments he made on the campaign trail Thursday about former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY).

“She is a radical war hawk,” Trump said. “Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels firing at her, okay? Let’s see how he feels about it, you know, when the guns are pointed in his face.

Vice President Harris responded to those comments on Friday, calling them violent rhetoric.

“This should disqualify anyone who wants to be president of the United States and who uses that type of violent rhetoric is clearly disqualified and unequal to be president,” he said.

Harris will also spend her weekend touring the swing states of North Carolina, Georgia and Michigan.

Both candidates plan to hold events in Pennsylvania on Monday, the last day of campaigning. Supporters of both Harris and Trump have been knocking on doors there to try to win over remaining undecided voters, including Jeremy Delgado. He is a Harris supporter who decided to campaign in the swing state after the former president’s rally at Madison Square Garden, when comedian Tony Hinchcliffe called Puerto Rico a “garbage island.”

“He just pissed off a bunch of people because… some of them were on the fence. And I must tell you that I am knocking on doors. And people told me, hey, I was going to vote for Trump, but after Tony Hinchcliffe’s comments, I’m not going to do it,” Delgado said.
