Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina emphasized the importance of policy in the Republican Party's bid for the White House, urging former President Donald Trump to focus on policy discussions rather than personal attacks on opponents. Graham expressed confidence in Trump's ability to win the election based on his policies, stating that a policy debate would favor the former president over his opponents.
Graham's comments came in response to a question about Trump's remarks regarding Vice President Kamala Harris, where he advised Trump to concentrate on outlining his plans for the country, such as addressing border issues and lowering inflation. The senator highlighted the economic challenges faced by Americans under the current administration, including rising gas prices, mortgage rates, and grocery costs.
During a recent Q&A session, Trump faced criticism for his comments about Harris, prompting him to post an image of her birth certificate on the social media platform Truth Social. In his remarks, Trump questioned Harris' heritage and judgment, emphasizing his concerns about her policy proposals.
Both Harris and Trump were actively campaigning in Pennsylvania, a key battleground state, over the weekend. Harris is expected to formally accept the Democratic presidential nomination at the upcoming 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
