Former President Donald Trump has ramped up personal attacks against Vice President Kamala Harris, calling her a “dummy” after her appearance on The View, and mocking her intelligence in several speeches. Over recent days, Trump has referred to Harris as “grossly incompetent” and “dumber than hell,” suggesting her presidency would be disastrous for the country.
Despite concerns from some Republicans that his derogatory rhetoric could alienate voters, especially women and independents, Trump has dismissed these warnings, focusing his attacks on Harris’s qualifications. Some GOP strategists believe Trump’s approach is aimed at framing Harris as unfit for office. However, Democrats argue these repeated insults could backfire, pushing voters away from Trump.
Polling data shows Harris has a slightly more favorable view than Trump among voters, with a New York Times/Siena College poll finding 50% of voters holding a favorable opinion of Harris compared to 46% for Trump. Harris has largely brushed off the attacks, emphasizing resilience and urging voters to move beyond Trump’s divisive rhetoric.
