Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, are aiming to sustain their momentum as they prepare to resume their campaign efforts following a high-energy Democratic National Convention last week.
Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump is preparing to address Harris’ rising influence while also campaigning with his running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, who targeted their opponents in recent remarks.
Here’s the latest campaign news:
- **Campaign Trail Updates:** Trump will speak at the National Guard Association’s conference in Detroit on Monday. On Thursday, he will address the economy in Michigan and participate in a town hall in Wisconsin. On Friday, Trump will hold a rally in Pennsylvania and later speak at a summit hosted by the conservative group Moms for Liberty in Washington, DC. Harris and Walz will start a bus tour in Georgia on Wednesday, ending with a rally in the Savannah area on Thursday.
- **Harris’ Fundraising Success:** Harris’ campaign announced Sunday that it has raised $540 million since her presidential bid began just over a month ago, setting a record for this time frame. The campaign saw a notable increase in grassroots donations during the convention, totaling $82 million.
- **Vance on the Issues:** In an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Sen. JD Vance expressed no reservations about accepting Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s endorsement of Trump, despite Kennedy’s controversial past. Vance also stated that Trump would veto a federal abortion ban if such legislation were passed by Congress.
- **Kennedy’s Campaign News:** Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who suspended his presidential campaign and endorsed Trump on Friday, announced he will actively campaign for Trump. Meanwhile, anecdotes about Kennedy’s personal life continue to surface, including a recent story about his daughter Kathleen “Kick” Kennedy recalling a 2012 incident where her father used a chainsaw to remove the head of a dead whale that had washed up near their Massachusetts home and transported it to New York on the roof of their minivan.
