The candidates, their movements and their rallies embody two very different identities, setting up a stark contrast for voters.
By Hannah Knowles and Dylan Wells, The Washington PostRepublican presidential nominee former President Donald Trump speaks to reporters during a news conference, Aug. 8, 2024, in Palm Beach, Fla., left, and Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris speaks at a campaign rally, Aug. 7, 2024, in Romulus, Mich.
A person wears a Kamala Harris shirt during her campaign event in Ambler, Pa., on July 29. worry that Trump will take America backward to a place where women, people of color, LGBTQ+ Americans and others face more challenges. She delivers tightly scripted speeches that prompt her crowds to boo at Trump but also strike sunny tones, such as pointing toward “the future.”
Trump campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt also suggested that Harris represents the past, criticizing inflation and “chaos around the world” during her and Biden’s time in the White House. Heather Beard, 43, was picking up her granddaughter last week when she noticed a Trump rally setting up at Montana State University. She showed up later to protest, upset that her granddaughter has less “bodily autonomy” than she did growing up, now that the Supreme Court - pushed rightward by Trump - overturned Roe v. Wade.“We have been so sad for so long, and suddenly we feel joy and we feel hope,” said Kimberley Colbaugh, 64, a Harris supporter who attended her recent Las Vegas rally.
In Atlanta, the crowd’s excitement reached new heights when rapper Megan Thee Stallion took the stage. A banner unfurled: “Hotties for Harris.” The rapper highlighted Harris’s barrier-breaking potential, saying, “We about to make history with the first female president. The first Black female president.”An attendee listens as Harris speaks in Las Vegas on Saturday. Rapper Quavo, an Atlanta native, endorsed Harris and her work preventing gun violence by saying, “She always stands on business.
Some Harris voters were conscious of the demographic divide between supporters of her and of Trump - and tried to counter it. At least two men wore a T-shirt that read, “OLD WHITE MEN FOR HARRIS AND FREEDOM.” Four days after Harris’s Atlanta event, Trump rallied at the same venue. Pastor Jentezen Franklin, one of Trump’s staunch evangelical allies, led the prayer. The crowd stood, and many removed the red MAGA caps from their heads.
