Harris Has low IQ, Trump Says
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Former US president Donald Trump has said his rival for the November election, Vice President Kamala Harris, is a “low-IQ individual.”
Speaking at the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville, Tennessee on Saturday, Trump called the cryptocurrency a “marvel of technology” and a “miracle of cooperation and human achievements,” RT reported.
The former president went on to praise the Bitcoin community as “very smart people,” and used the opportunity to disparage the presumptive Democratic nominee.
“This room is amazing. The people in this room are high-IQ individuals. I’m running against a low IQ individual,” Trump told the audience. He had insulted Harris in the past, describing her as “dumb as a rock.”
Harris became the Democratic Party’s frontrunner last week after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race. High-ranking Democrats and major party donors urged Biden to withdraw in the wake of his disastrous June debate with Trump, when more concerns were raised over his declining health and ability to win the election in November.
Harris has since secured enough commitments from party delegates to be officially nominated as the Democratic candidate at a convention next month, according to an Associate Press survey.
During a campaign rally in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on Tuesday, she launched a scathing attack on her rival, claiming that she knows “Donald Trump’s type” and listed “all kinds of predators” she dealt with when serving as a prosecutor. She repeatedly called Trump a “convicted felon” and accused him of “restoring to some wild lies.”
The campaign was shaken up by an attempt to assassinate Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13. Trump narrowly escaped death as the gunman’s bullet grazed his ear. The incident prompted the resignation of Secret Service chief Kimberly Cheatle, who admitted that the agency had failed to properly protect the former president.
