Kamala Harris: "I will do everything to defeat Donald Trump" 

US Vice President Kamala Harris announced Sunday, after President Joe Biden bowed out of the race, that she plans to run for president and beat Donald Trump in the elections.

While Biden’s endorsement of Harris is significant, prominent Democrats including former President Barack Obama and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) have not yet shown their support for Harris. Additionally, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, a potential competitor, has refrained from endorsing her.

Harris, who aims to become the first female president of the United States, remarked, “I am honored to have the 81-year-old president’s endorsement and that it was my intention is to earn and win this nomination.”

She went on to state: “I am honored to have the President’s endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination. Over the past year, I have traveled across the country, talking with Americans about the clear choice in this momentous election. And that is what I will continue to do in the days and weeks ahead. I will do everything in my power to unite the Democratic Party—and unite our nation—to defeat Donald Trump and his extreme Project 2025 agenda.

“We have 107 days until Election Day. Together, we will fight. And together, we will win.”
