In response to the final night of the RNC Convention, <\/em>DNC Chair Jaime Harrison released the following statement: <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis week, convicted felon Donald Trump reminded the American people why they voted him out of office four years ago \u2013 because he doesn\u2019t care about working families, he only cares about himself. In Trump\u2019s Republican Party, there\u2019s only space for unquestioning loyalists who will put him above our democracy, above our freedoms, and above working families. That\u2019s why Trump chose JD Vance to be his running mate, and it\u2019s why Trump\u2019s former vice president \u2013 who he tried to get to overturn the election \u2013 was nowhere to be found this week in Milwaukee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOver the past four days, we\u2019ve seen speakers endorse a far-right, dangerous vision that would see Americans\u2019 basic liberties stripped away and replace the rule of law with the rule of Trump. No amount of desperate spin can change how unpopular and out of touch their disastrous plans are for the American people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTrump and Vance are running on the dangerous Project 2025 agenda to put tax cuts for billionaires above lowering costs for working people, outlaw abortion and threaten other basic rights, and put our democracy at risk. The more voters learn about the Trump-Vance ticket \u2013 the most extreme running mates in modern American history \u2013 the more fired up they are to reelect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris this November.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
