Kamala Harris is ready to energize our base. She has the prosecutor’s grit and the charisma to go head-to-head with Trump. Young people, women and communities of color will see themselves in her fight. Don’t buy the tough talk from Trump’s camp. They know they’re in for a real battle. This is an entirely new race with an entirely new tone.
The singular focus for Democrats now is about getting voters off their couches and into voting booths. We have a golden opportunity here. While the GOP is trying to drag us backwards — banning abortions, attacking birth control and undoing basic civil rights — we can rally around what really matters: defeating Donald Trump. This is not about finding a perfect candidate or getting everything we want. It’s about protecting our nation and every American who calls it home. Fear and timidity in the face of autocratic ambitions only emboldens those who would undermine our republic.
