Former President Donald Trump said Vice President Kamala Harris is running a “campaign of absolute hate” and her divisive rhetoric toward him is “shameful and really inexcusable” after facing two assassination attempts in recent months. Trump was highly critical of Harris, who called him “fascist” this week, during a press conference at his luxurious Mar-a-Lago resort on Tuesday morning. “She’s running on a campaign of demoralization and really a campaign of destruction,” Trump said.

Trump was nearly killed on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania, when Thomas Matthew Crooks shot him in the ear, narrowly missing Trump’s skull during one of his trademark rallies.
