VP Harris embraces new attack role, draws Republican fire FMTNews FMTWorld
BOSTON: US vice-president Kamala Harris has shown a punchy side during a tour of nearly a dozen US states in recent weeks, attacking Florida governor Ron DeSantis for backing “revisionist history” about slavery, telling Iowa healthcare workers to rebel against the state’s new restrictive abortion laws and rallying Latinos in Chicago to fight “extremist” Republicans.
She will engage in many more campaign-style events in months to come, designed to reacquaint Harris with loyal supporters, burnish her image with independents and reach out to Democrats’ who haven’t been hearing the Biden administration’s message.
A recent NBC News poll showed 49% of registered voters hold a negative view of Harris, compared to 32% with a positive view, a net-negative rating of 17 that is the lowest for a vice-president in the history of its poll. His campaign accused another Black Republican who criticised the changes, which include teaching that slavery had possible benefits to the enslaved, of being a Harris supporter.
