Harris campaign co-chairman Mitch Landrieu called Trump a “cray cray” and said the former president could barely say anything meaningful anymore.
When asked about Kamala Harris allowing cameras into her fundraisers, Landrieu said on MSNBC’s “Weekend”:
Unless you like Donald Trump, the more you see him, the more you see him. The more you see Kamala Harris, the more you like her. Let’s come to more.
I’m watching those clips of President Trump. It was an old, tired, grumpy guy who was just a lunatic. He could barely say anything meaningful anymore. I think they should care about his mental acuity and the choices he makes. Last Sunday, when President Biden decided not to run again, the vice president suddenly jumped into the race. she growled. She took off like a rocket. She holds the pulse of the country in her hands.
She raised $200 million. We have 150,000 new volunteers. Yesterday we held over 2,000 events across the country. She’s ready to go. As you know, President Trump is Mr. Trump anytime, anywhere, and he looked at his calendar and realized he had something going on that day. He couldn’t argue with her because he was afraid of arguing.

The strategy is simple. The Harris campaign is lambasting Trump for what he is. Democrats also have a huge advantage in the age discussion right now, so they’re taking advantage of it.
Most Americans think Trump is an ancient, weird, crazy extremist, rapist and felon. Democrats are not normalizing Trump. They won’t treat him like any former president. Trump can’t talk in normal language. He is not an ordinary former president and he is not an ordinary candidate.
The Democrats are not playing games with Trump, they are accusing him of insanity.
