On Monday, presidential candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump campaigned in battleground states, with just two weeks until the US election.
Harris toured three key swing states alongside Liz Cheney, the eldest daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, and two of the most prominent Republicans to officially back her, seeking support from moderate Republican voters.
What exactly did Harris and Cheney say
During one of her three “town hall” events with Cheney, moderated by a conservative radio host, in Malvern, Pennsylvania, Harris returned to her recent attack line of questioning Trump’s mental stability and suitability for office.
She also said that Trump “has been manipulated and is so clearly able to be manipulated by favor and flattery, including by dictators and autocrats.”
Harris said if Trump were to win next month, Ukraine would likely fall to Russia. Foreign policy is one area where Cheney often criticizes Trump.
Cheney, meanwhile, said during the event in Royal Oak, Michigan that she had spoken to several Republicans with concerns about Trump who had also said “I can’t be public” in those opinions. But she voiced confidence that “they’ll do the right thing.”
“And I would just remind people, if you’re at all concerned, you can vote your conscience and not ever have to say a word to anybody,” Cheney said.
