In the closing stages of the US election campaign, Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris has called for an end to the chaos, division and drama under Donald Trump. “This is an unstable, revenge-obsessed person who is consumed by resentment and seeks unrestrained power,” Harris told a mass rally at the White House in Washington. There, in 2021, Trump roused his supporters with a speech before storming the US Capitol.

Harris used the appearance in front of a large crowd of supporters — 75,000 according to organizers — in the symbolic spot days before the election to call for unity in the country and warn against another Trump presidency. He described his opponent as a “tyrant” and a “would-be dictator”.

On January 6, 2021, Trump incited his supporters with the baseless claim that Democrats had denied him victory in the 2020 presidential election through fraud. A violent mob then moved to nearby Capitol Hill and attacked the Parliament building. There, Congress is working to formally confirm the election victory of Democrat Joe Biden against Trump.

Trump has yet to concede his election loss to Biden and continues to say that Democrats used unfair means to steal the victory from him in the current election campaign. With the elections to be held next Tuesday, there are fears that similar disturbances may recur after the 2020 elections. Statements made by Trump during the election campaign raise strong doubts that he will accept defeat this time.

Harris said Trump sent armed mobs to the Capitol at the time. If he returns to the White House on January 6, 2021, freeing violent extremists and taking criminal action against his opponents will be among his priorities. Trump wants to use the US military against Americans who disagree with him. Harris warned that previous generations had not fought for basic liberties, and now subject the country to the whims of a “tyrant.” And America is not an arena for “dictatorship” behavior.

“For a decade, Donald Trump has tried to divide the American people and make them afraid of each other,” the 60-year-old criticized. This has to end. “It is time to put drama and conflict, fear and division behind us.” It is time for a new generation of leadership in America.

“I promise to be the president of all Americans and to always put country before party,” Democrats shouted to the crowd. She likes to seek compromises and uses common sense to find solutions. “I'm not perfect. I make mistakes,” Harris admitted. “But I promise I'll always listen to you. Even if you don't vote for me.” She does not see those who think differently as enemies.

Harris struck a serious tone during the appearance, whereas in recent weeks he has tried to add some lightness and good humor to counter Trump in campaign appearances. His performances were attended by thousands of people of all ages. They waited in long queues for hours to get to the site. The mood was calm, with many waving American flags. The Democratic Party was repeatedly interrupted by chants of “Kamala”.

Individual audience members appeared thoughtful and quiet in response to Harris' powerful words. Some held each other's hands. A large number of people gathered outside the fenced area. Occasionally shouts of demonstrators who wanted to disrupt the event were heard. Their words were primarily against the Middle East policy of the Biden-Harris administration.

Harris clearly tried to distance himself from Biden during the speech. He said it was an honor to serve as its vice president. “But I will bring my own experiences and ideas to the Oval Office. My presidency will be different because the challenges we face are different.”

Biden did not attend his running mate's appearance, giving way during the campaign under pressure from his party. The 81-year-old continued his White House speech. Asked by reporters why he wasn't participating, he preemptively said, “It's their night.”

Biden has not typically appeared on Harris' campaign. Keeping the number of his appearances low seemed to be the Democrats' strategy — after several of his embarrassing appearances in recent months led to his withdrawal.

Trump's campaign team criticized Harris' performance as underhanded: he wanted to distract from his own failures during his time in office with Biden. Trump appeared at the same time in Allentown, 300 kilometers away, in a particularly hot and decisive swing state, Pennsylvania. The 78-year-old ended his regular campaign program there. He vowed to end the “invasion of criminals” into America, accused Harris and Democrats of destroying the country and called his election victory “the greatest moment in the history of the world.”

The Republican did not comment further on criticism of the comedian's tasteless joke, which he called the US territory of Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage” at a major Trump rally in New York. The sentence sparked outrage in Puerto Rico — and Pennsylvania alone is home to about 500,000 Puerto Ricans. Trump tried to minimize the damage there and called a politician from Puerto Rico on stage to praise him. And he said no one loves the Puerto Rican community more than he does.
