Kamala Harris Responds After Rally-Goer Shouts ‘He’s Going to Jail!’ at Mention of Trump

 

Vice President Kamala Harris responded to a member of the audience at her rally in Pittsburgh on Monday after they shouted, “He’s going to jail!” at the mention of former President Donald Trump.

“As we fight to move forward, Donald Trump is trying to pull us backward,” said Harris during her Labor Day speech. “Including back to a time before workers had the freedom to organize.”

After a member of the audience shouted, “He’s going to jail!” Harris responded, “Well, the courts will handle that and we will handle November. How about that?” as the audience burst into cheers and applause.

“We’ll handle November. Let the courts handle that other thing. But we’re not going back,” she continued, as the audience chanted, “We’re not going back!”

Harris went on:

We’re not going back, and one of the ways we’re going to guarantee we don’t go back is that we remember, right? It is important to remember what that was and what it is. Remember, as president, Donald Trump blocked overtime benefits for millions of workers. He opposed efforts to raise the minimum wage! As the president said, he appointed union busters to the National Labor Relations Board. And don’t forget, he supported so-called right-to-work laws. And if Donald Trump were to be reelected, he intends to give more tax cuts to billionaires and big corporations

Trump tore into Harris in his Labor Day message on Monday, claiming that “all Americans” were “suffering this holiday weekend” due to her “failed leadership.”

“Under Comrade Kamala Harris, all Americans are suffering during this Holiday weekend – High Gas Prices, Transportation Costs are up, and Grocery Prices are through the roof,” he wrote. “We can’t keep living under this weak and failed ‘Leadership.'”
