Harris has swiftly has united much the Democratic Party behind her candidacy since she jumped into the presidential race on Sunday.
Vice President Harris planned to address an influential teachers union in Houston on Thursday morning before traveling to Washington to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the afternoon, a preview of the delicate political and policy terrain she must navigate during her shortened and frenetic presidential campaign.
“In this election, we each face a question: What kind of country do we want to live in?” Harris says in the video, which campaign officials said would air across social media platforms beginning Thursday. “There are some people who think we should be a country of chaos. Of fear. Of hate. But us? We choose something different. We choose freedom.
Harris’s campaign shot back Thursday by describing Trump as a “78-year-old criminal,” responding to the former president’s appearance on Fox News, in which he accused Harris of staging a “palace coup” against Biden. Biden plans to meet with Netanyahu earlier Thursday and also meet privately with the families of hostages who were among the 250 taken captive during Hamas’s Oct. 7 attack, which killed 1,200 people.
