New York: Kamala Harris, the US vice president and Democratic nominee, made a bold appearance at DNC on Thursday to deliver the biggest speech of her career.<\/p>\n
She entered the 2024 presidential contest following President Joe Biden\u2019s withdrawal from the campaign after his dismal debate performance against Donald Trump.<\/p>\n
During her address, Harris first paid tribute to Biden, who paved the door for her to attend tonight\u2019s DNC.<\/p>\n
\u201cI love you so very much to our President, Joe Biden,\u201d the US VP asserted. \u201cWhen I think about the path that we have traveled together, Joe, I am filled with gratitude.\u201d<\/p>\n
Calling the record of POTUS \u201cextraordinary\u201d, she said, \u201cYour character is inspiring.\u201d \u201cDoug and I love you and Jill and are forever thankful to you both.\u201d<\/p>\n
Before her DNC appearance, Biden and former First Lady Jill Biden spoke to Harris over phone. Later in a post on X, Biden asserted: \u201cKamala and Tim will inspire a generation and lead us into the future.\u201d<\/p>\n
Harris, who formally accepted the Democratic nomination for president, told the crowd: \u201cI accept your nomination to be President of the United States of America.\u201d<\/p>\n
She promised to be the president for \u201call the Americans\u201d, adding that \u201cYou can always trust me to put country above party and self.\u201d<\/p>\n
As the Democratic contender has been drawing on her experience as a state and local prosecutor, she noted: \u201cMy entire career I\u2019ve only had one client the people.\u201d<\/p>\n
Harris\u2019 catchphrase during her unsuccessful 2020 presidential campaign was \u201cFor the People.\u201d<\/p>\n
She presented herself as a \u201crealistic\u201d and \u201cpractical\u201d leader and pledged to serve as \u201ca president who leads and listens, who is realistic, practical and has common sense and always fights for the American people.\u201d<\/p>\n
Targeting her Republican opponent, the US VP declared, \u201cDonald Trump is an unserious man.\u201d<\/p>\n
She further invoked Jan. 6 to warn about the \u201cextremely serious\u201d consequences of Trump\u2019s return to the White House.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn many ways, Donald Trump is an unserious man. But the consequences, but the consequences of putting Donald Trump back in the White House are extremely serious,\u201d she asserted.<\/p>\n
She told the crowd that Trump attempted to \u201cdiscard your ballots\u201d. \u201cWhen he failed, he sent an armed mob to the United States Capitol, where they assaulted, law enforcement officers.\u201d<\/p>\n
Harris continued with a list of grievances directed at Trump, claiming that he would have no \u201cguardrails\u201d in the event of a second term because of the Supreme Court\u2019s decision on presidential immunity.<\/p>\n
She vowed to stand firmly by Ukraine if she wins the run for the White House.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs president, I will stand strong with Ukraine and our NATO allies,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n
She furtherattackedTrump for his previous endorsements of autocratic opponents in an attempt to position herself as a steadyhand in international affairs.<\/p>\n
Harris said she will never hesitate to take important actions required to defend the American forces and the US\u2019 interests against Iran and Iran-backed terrorists.<\/p>\n
\u201cI will not cozy up to tyrants and dictators like Kim Jong-Un who are rooting for Trump,\u201d she declared.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey know he is easy to manipulate with flattery and favors,\u201d she continued.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow is the time to get a hostage deal and a cease-fire deal done!\u201d she said, amidst thunderous cheers.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd let me be clear, I will always stand up for Israel\u2019s right to defend itself,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
