Vice President Kamala Harris gave a powerful speech in which she said we cannot count on Trump to keep Americans safe, noting that President Joe Biden strengthened NATO while former President Donald Trump’s embrace of Putin makes America weak.
“Understand that Trump’s surrender to dictators weakens America and is unqualified,” the vice president said Thursday at James B. Dudley High School in Greensboro, North Carolina.

Harris pointed to the fact that traditional media has not reported that we cannot trust Trump to keep us safe:
We just know that we can’t count on Donald Trump to help keep America and Americans safe, not in your home, not on the world stage, and yes, I was talking about national security as well.
The vice president encouraged embattled President Joe Biden, noting his support for NATO’s impact on democracy around the world:
This week, our President Biden will host more than 30 global leaders in Washington, D.C., for the NATO Summit.
Today, NATO is the greatest military alliance in the world, thanks to our President Biden, thanks to Joe Biden, If there’s one person in the world who deserves credit for strengthening NATO and making it stronger, more united and more effective, it’s Joe Biden. That’s Joe Biden.
While it might be tempting to dismiss this as vice president’s partner talk, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer said Biden was in “very good shape” and Ukraine’s foreign minister said it was clear from Biden’s speech two days earlier It is obvious that the United States is in trouble. French President Macron said when asked by reporters about his impression of the US President, “I don’t understand your question about President Biden. He is my opponent. He is the President of the United States and we are happy that he is the President of the United States.”
Jake Sullivan (Foreign Policy Correspondent Laura Rosen): “Yesterday, at the North Atlantic Council meeting with NATO allies, what I heard at the negotiating table was glowing praise for the United States. , but also for President Biden personally, for his efforts to strengthen NATO, especially as president, but also throughout his career. Leaders have really emphasized their gratitude for him at this point. Feelings.
Harris noted that it was because of Biden that we stood up to dictator Putin and kept Americans safe, while convicted felon Donald Trump embraced Putin.
Joe Biden makes it even more effective, and together with our allies around the world, we will stand up to dictator Putin to keep America strong and Americans safe.
On the other hand, look at Donald Trump embracing Putin, and look at this not just happening today. This is what happened when Trump threatened to abandon NATO and encouraged Putin to invade our allies.
Harris calls Trump’s appeasement and weakness in front of Putin “disqualifying”:
He even said, and I’m going to quote him now and excuse the use of this word, but he said: Russia can “do whatever it wants.”
He wants to be President of the United States.
Understand that when Trump gives in to dictators, he makes America weak, which is disqualifying for those who want to be Commander-in-Chief of the United States of America.
This is disqualification.
The vice president was right when Donald Trump said in February that he would encourage Russia to “do whatever it wants.”
During a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, the president announced a new aid package worth $225 million that includes Patriot missile systems, National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System munitions, Stinger anti-aircraft missiles, high-mobility artillery rockets ammunition systems, etc., to help Ukraine resist Russia’s ongoing war of aggression and expansion.
In this speech, Kamala Harris dismisses the doubters and mumbo-jumbo and highlights the clear threat Donald Trump poses to our national security.
