The event was arranged after Donald Trump declined to participate in a second debate with her. With less than two weeks to go until the election, here are some key moments from the town hall. Harris says Trump is a fascist She left no doubt that she believes her opponent can be characterized by the far-right authoritarian ideology. Asked by CNN’s Anderson Cooper if she thinks Trump is a fascist, Harris replied bluntly. “Yes, I do,” she said. “Yes, I do.” Her answer came shortly after This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up , Trump’s former chief of staff, used the same term to describe the *********** nominee.

Harris has been reluctant to distance herself from him even though voters appear eager for a change in direction. However, Biden recently gave her a rhetorical green light to break with him more, saying she would This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up if elected. Harris appears to have tentatively embraced the opportunity. She repeatedly said Wednesday night that she would offer “a new approach” to governing when it came to caring for the elderly and bringing down consumer costs. “I’m not going to shy away from saying, hey, these are still problems that we need to fix,” Harris said. Harris talks about her personal ****** The vice president doesn’t usually discuss her religion, but she revealed more during the town hall. Cooper asked Harris to reflect on the day that Biden dropped his reelection bid and endorsed her, particularly a call that she had with her pastor. “I needed that advice,” she said about her conversation with Rev. Dr. Amos Brown in San Francisco. “I needed a prayer.” She also said, “I do pray every day, sometimes twice a day.” Harris said she was raised with the understanding that “your ****** is a verb,” meaning that it’s important to put beliefs into action to help others.
