Harris camp mocks Trump over ‘low energy’ campaign schedule
Vice President Harris’s campaign mocked former President Trump over his “low energy” schedule as the vice president prepares for a multistate tour this week.
The Harris campaign account posted a side-by-side comparison of the vice president’s schedule for the upcoming week and Trump’s campaign schedule.
It shows Harris with campaign stops across Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Arizona and Nevada and shows Trump with one stop in Montana.
“Low energy, @realdonaldtrump?” the campaign wrote.
The only campaign stop listed on Trump’s campaign website as of Monday afternoon is his rally in Bozeman, Mont., on Friday.
When reached for comment, the Trump campaign pointed The Hill to a post from the Trump War Room account on the social platform X.
“Fake news, bass mouth. President Trump’s schedule this week is filled with events, rallies, media interviews, and fundraisers. Kamala isn’t going to give you an interview, no matter how much you carry her water,” the post reads.
Harris is kicking off her five-day, seven-state blitz in Philadelphia on Tuesday, where she is expected to debut her vice presidential pick.
She and her running mate will then travel to Wisconsin and Michigan on Wednesday, North Carolina and Georgia on Thursday, Arizona on Friday and Nevada on Saturday.
Harris earned enough delegates last week to become the presumptive Democratic nominee as her campaign continues to gain momentum.
A new CBS News/YouGov poll on Sunday showed Harris with a 1-point lead over the former president nationally and showed her tied with Trump across key battleground states.
Trump’s running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), will be doing his own multistate swing this week, the campaign announced Monday. He will be hitting many of the same states as Harris, including delivering remarks in Philadelphia on Tuesday.
Vance will appear in Shelby Township, Mich., and Eau Claire, Wis., on Wednesday, which is when Harris is slated to visit both key swing states. He will then speak in North Carolina on Thursday, the campaign said.
