WEST PALM BEACH-US presidential candidate Donald Trump falsely accused election rival Kamala Harris of being an anti-Semite who plans to allow the murder of newborn babies, in a speech meant to rally religious supporters that quickly went off the rails.
The vice president, who is married to a Jewish man, has gained ground on Trump in polling since she replaced Joe Biden on the top of the Democratic ticket just days ago.
Former Republican president Trump dedicated much of his address at a religious convention in southern Florida to assailing Harris’s record as a senator and as Biden’s number two, but many of his attacks were smears untethered to reality.
Explaining why 59-year-old Harris had skipped Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to the US Congress on Wednesday to instead honor a prior commitment, Trump accused her, baselessly, of anti-Semitism.
“She doesn’t like Jewish people. She doesn’t like (Zionist entity). That’s the way it is, and that’s the way it’s always going to be. She’s not going to change,” he said.
