Vice President Kamala Harris Gears Up for the Democratic Convention
As Trump makes his comeback, Vice President Kamala Harris is preparing to capitalize on a wave of Democratic enthusiasm as she approaches her party’s national convention. The convention is set to begin next Monday in Chicago, and Harris is expected to leverage this event to solidify her position as the Democratic nominee following President Joe Biden’s unexpected exit from the race.

In the coming days, Trump is scheduled to hold a rally in Asheville, North Carolina, focusing on economic issues. This event is seen as a key moment for Trump to rally his base and reclaim some of the momentum he has lost. Meanwhile, Harris will embark on her first joint appearance with Biden since being elevated to the top of the Democratic ticket. They will travel to Maryland on Thursday for an official event centered on efforts to “lower costs for the American people.”
False Claims and Cybersecurity Issues
Trump has been making headlines for more than just his return to social media. On Sunday, he issued a series of posts accusing Harris of using artificial intelligence to create fake images and videos of large crowds. These claims, however, have been widely debunked.
Additionally, Trump’s campaign reported a cybersecurity breach allegedly carried out by Iranian hackers. The campaign asserted that the hackers only accessed publicly available data. Microsoft has confirmed that Iranian hackers targeted a “high-ranking official” on a presidential campaign but has not specified the extent of the breach.
Swing-State Polling and Campaign Dynamics
Recent polling data presents a shifting electoral landscape. A New York Times/Siena College poll released on Saturday shows Harris leading Trump by 50 percent to 46 percent in key swing states such as Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. These states are crucial as they could ensure a Democratic victory even if traditionally Republican states like Arizona and Georgia revert to Trump.
The poll suggests that the transition from Biden to Harris has significantly altered the dynamics of the race, potentially turning the tide in favor of the Democrats.
Senator JD Vance’s Media Blitz
Senator JD Vance of Ohio, Trump’s running mate, has been active on the media circuit. In a series of appearances on Sunday morning news shows, Vance defended Trump’s controversial meeting in 2022 with white supremacist Nick Fuentes. Vance also reiterated his criticisms of the Democratic Party, accusing them of being “anti-family” and defending policies he claims discriminate against farmers.
Biden’s Post-Race Reflections
In his first interview since exiting the race, President Biden spoke to CBS News. Biden stated that he had “no serious problem” with his health and explained that his decision to withdraw was influenced by fellow Democrats’ concerns about potential distractions from defeating Trump. Reflecting on his presidency, Biden expressed hope that his legacy would be defined by the effectiveness of American democracy, the management of the pandemic, and the economic recovery he claims is the greatest in history.
Fundraising Efforts and Campaign Strategies
Amid the shifting political landscape, Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota is set to engage in a series of fundraisers to support Harris’s campaign. Walz will visit several cities, including Orange County, California, Providence, Rhode Island, Boston, Denver, and the Hamptons. Similarly, Vance will focus on fundraising efforts in Houston, San Antonio, and Laredo, Texas.
