Kamala Harris draws large crowd at Ellipse rally, former GOP lawmaker calls it a master stroke

Vice President Kamala Harris held a rally at the Ellipse in Washington, D.C., drawing tens of thousands of supporters. This location is significant as it was the site of Donald Trump's "Stop the Steal" rally before the January 6 Capitol riot. Former Republican Congressman Denver Riggleman praised Harris's choice of venue, calling it a "master stroke." He noted that her rally followed Trump's controversial event at Madison Square Garden, allowing her to present a positive vision for America. Riggleman criticized the current state of the Republican Party under Trump, stating it is not addressing serious issues. He emphasized the importance of focusing on democracy in the upcoming election, appealing to former Republicans and independents.
