LANCASTER - Kamala Harris turned 60 on Sunday in the final stretch of a knife-edge US election, making campaign stops at Black churches in Georgia as her 78-year-old opponent Donald Trump served fries at a Pennsylvania McDonald's in a bid to earn working-class credibility.
Recently Trump has likened undocumented migrants to animals, threatened revenge against his perceived enemies, praised autocrats like Vladimir Putin of Russia and described America as a ruined nation only he can fix.Speaking at a Baptist megachurch near Atlanta, the Democrat urged a Black congregation to embrace compassionate values while others"spread hate, sow fear and cause chaos."
The campaign stop was intended as a jab at Harris, who has talked about working at the fast-food chain in her youth. "I love salt!" he exclaimed, also throwing some over his shoulder onto the floor, explaining that he is"superstitious.""I think I'll get her some flowers," he quipped."Maybe I'll get her some fries."Both candidates are spending their final campaign days in pivotal states, as are their surrogates.
"The billionaires have the money. They can throw all the money they want in the election, but working-class people have the votes, and votes are the great equalizer in this fight," Fain said.
