MILWAUKEE - Donald Trump and his Democratic rival Joe Biden traded tough blows Monday as the White House race entered its final stretch, with the Republican leader branding his opponent"stupid" - and the Democrat firing back that the president lacked the"guts" to tackle the Covid-19 pandemic.
Touting an upswing in job creation - after tens of millions lost jobs - and claiming the US is turning the corner on the pandemic, he called Biden"stupid," saying he"wants to surrender our country to the virus, he wants to surrender our families to the violent left-wing mob, and he wants to surrender our jobs to China."
And the sometimes violent anti-racism protests and counter-protests - the latest a pro-Trump motorcade rumbling Monday on the outskirts of Portland - lend an explosive element to the campaign. "I'm not saying the military is in love with me - the soldiers are," he told reporters at the White House. Harris, in her highest-profile campaign sortie yet, headed to the state where she followed in Biden's footsteps by meeting with the family of Jacob Blake, the African American man whose shooting by police touched off widespread protests last month.
Trump, blaming the violence on"radicals" and"anarchists," has positioned himself as a law-and-order champion.
