Former President Donald Trump took aim at Kamala Harris during a rally in Coachella, California, criticizing her recent remarks that she wouldn’t change anything from her time in the Biden administration.
Trump referenced comments Harris made on ABC’s The View, where she was asked if there was anything she would have done differently than Joe Biden during the past four years.
Harris responded, “There is not a thing that comes to mind,” noting that she had been involved in most decisions.
CNN just ROASTED Kamala for saying she wouldn’t have done anything different than Biden on The View:

“Kamala Harris said this week she can’t think of one thing, not one thing, that she would do differently,” Trump told the crowd. He then played a video highlighting several controversial moments from the Biden-Harris administration, including the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan, which left 13 American service members dead.
The video also pointed out that over 13,000 illegal immigrants convicted of murder had been apprehended at the border and later released into the United States.
It also mentioned the arrest of an Afghan national, who entered the U.S. on a special immigrant visa in 2021 after the Afghanistan withdrawal, and was later charged with plotting a terrorist attack for Election Day.

The song became an instant hit, reaching the #1 spot on iTunes across all charts within 24 hours of its release and garnering over 10 million views across social media platforms within three days.
Actor Dennis Quaid made a surprise appearance at the rally, offering his endorsement of Trump and telling the crowd, “It’s time to pick a side.”
Quaid stressed the need to choose between supporting the Constitution or platforms like TikTok and between law and order or open borders.
He drew comparisons between today’s political landscape and the 1980 election, noting similarities in the issues, such as inflation and a sense of national decline.
Quaid praised Trump, calling him his favorite president of the 21st century, just as Ronald Reagan was his favorite president of the 20th century.

Rep. Ken Calvert (R-CA) also addressed the rally, reflecting on the state of California.
He recalled how, during his parents’ time, the “California dream” was alive, with affordable housing, good jobs, and a manageable cost of living.
He contrasted that era with today’s California, which he described as a “nightmare” due to the policies of Harris and other Democrats.
Calvert cited the state’s high gas prices, expensive housing, and soaring homelessness rates as evidence of failed leadership.
