Re “ Kamala Harris ” (Your Views, Aug. 9): A reader suggests video of Vice President Kamala Harris saying the U.S.
has “an alliance with the Republic of North Korea” was being suppressed by the press to give her a pass. It’s not. I easily found it with Google.
It’s also obvious, she misspoke. I wonder if the reader was as critical of former President Donald Trump when he’s misspoken. Trump claimed that the Continental Army, during the Revolutionary War, “took over the airports” 128 years before the Wright brothers flew the first airplane.
Did he actually believe we had airports in 1775? No. He misspoke. Trump said Nikki Haley, his recent GOP primary opponent, was responsible for Capitol security on Jan.
6, apparently confusing her for Rep. Nancy Pelosi. Trump has accused Pelosi of turning down troops, a claim that is false.
He called Hungary’s prime minister, Viktor Orban, “the leader of Turkey.” Recently, during the current campaign for president against then-opponent President Joe Biden, he’s continually referred to Biden as (Barack) “Obama.” He confused Argentina for a person saying, “You know, Argentina, great guy.
He’s a big Trump guy. He loves Trump.” Trump warned that Biden could, plunge the world into World War II, a war we won 79 years ago.
While Harris’ North Korea mistake was unfortunate, it was not an indication that she believes North Korea is our ally. Dave Brechtel, Virginia Beach Re “ Kamala Harris ” (Your Views, Aug. .
