Bill Clinton criticizes Trump, endorses Kamala Harris at Democratic National Convention
Chicago: Former US President Bill Clinton delivered a sharp critique of Donald Trump at the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday, urging Americans to choose Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, over Trump in the upcoming election.
Clinton accused Trump of "creating and curating chaos" during his presidency, saying that the 2024 election presents a "clear choice" between Harris and her Republican opponent, whom he referred to as "the other guy." He praised Harris for her commitment to ensuring every American can "chase their dreams."
