Party. Vice president harris reacting to getting the baking from former congresswoman Liz Cheney and also cheneys father, Dick Cheney. The former Vice President following the warning he heard from his daughter, that its not enough just to not vote for Donald Trump. He will take the next Step And Vote for Kamala Harris.

Donald trump blocked overtime benefits for millions of workers. [ Crowd Booing ] he opposed efforts to raise the minimum wage. As the president said, he appointed Union Busters to the national labor relations board. [ Crowd Booing ] and, dont forget, he supposed socalled right to work laws. I remember a time when republicans talked about things like freedom, they meant it. They would never turn their back on our allies. But thats not these guys.

We are now just a little over two months away

No. Look, i think if people were going to stand up, theyve had now, shall we say, several years to do it. Several people simply have not. Disagree with me or not, but how much of a difference will it make . Its certainly not going to shake trumps base. Im not sure many of thes
