Kamala Harris delivered a speech on Tuesday night, warning that Donald Trump is "unstable" and seeking unchecked power. She compared him to King George III, emphasizing the need to protect democracy from what she called a "petty tyrant." Harris spoke to a crowd of over 75,000 at the Ellipse, a site significant for its connection to the January 6 Capitol attack. She highlighted her campaign promises, including tax cuts for middle-class families and national abortion rights. As the election approaches, polls show Harris and Trump in a tight race. Despite initial enthusiasm for her campaign, recent weeks have seen a shift, with both candidates now nearly tied. Harris urged attendees to vote, expressing her belief in the "Promise of America."
