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."
However, Clinton cautioned Democrats against overconfidence, stressing the importance of not underestimating their opponents. He urged them to be resilient in the face of any challenges during the campaign.
In his address, Clinton also acknowledged the decision of President Joe Biden not to seek re-election, comparing Biden's legacy to that of George Washington.
