Vice President Kamala Harris expressed strong disapproval of former President Donald Trump's recent comments made at a rally in Wisconsin. Trump stated that he would protect women whether 'they like it or not,' a remark that Harris deemed offensive to women and the general population.

Harris emphasized the importance of women's agency, authority, and right to make decisions about their own lives, including their bodies. She highlighted Trump's comment as part of a pattern that reveals his views on women and their autonomy.
