WILMINGTON : California Senator Kamala Harris made history on Wednesday by becoming the first black women to accept the Democratic nomination for vice president, while joining Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton to launch attacks at President Donald Trump for his profound “failure” as a leader.
\nHarris, the first black woman on a major party’s White House ticket, accused Trump of turning “our tragedies into political weapons.” And she urged Americans to vote for Joe Biden, “a president who will bring all of us together.”
\n“Donald Trump’s failure of leadership has cost lives and livelihoods,” the former California prosecutor charged in her acceptance speech.
\n“We’re at an inflection point.”
\nBiden, who faces Trump on November 3, is due to give his own acceptance speech on Thursday, closing a Democratic convention held wholly online and on television due to coronavirus safety precautions.
\nShortly before Harris spoke, America’s first black president, Barack Obama, delivered his own condemnation of Trump \u2014 and appeal for Biden’s election.
\nObama said that on handing over the White House to Trump in 2017, he thought the Republican “might show some interest in taking the job seriously; that he might come to feel the weight of the office and discover some reverence for the democracy that had been placed in his care.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
