Former President Trump fired back at President Biden’s remark that his supporters are “garbage” during a rally in North Carolina on Wednesday. He took aim at Vice President Harris too, stating, “You can't lead America if you don't love Americans.”
“Kamala has been comparing her political opponents to the most evil mass murderers in history,” Trump declared. He criticized Harris for accepting former Chief of Staff John Kelly’s claim that Trump wanted “Hitler's generals.” Last week, from the White House, she labeled Trump as “unhinged” and said he craves “unchecked power.”
Trump didn’t hold back. “Joe Biden finally said what he and Kamala really think of our supporters. He called them garbage,” he said. He argued that his supporters are of “far higher quality than crooked Joe Biden, Kamala.”
“My response to Joe and Kamala is very simple,” Trump continued. “You can't be president if you hate the American people.” He asserted that there’s a lot of hatred coming from the current administration.
“Kamala Harris is not fit to be president of the United States,” Trump stated. He questioned her capabilities, saying she lacks “the intellect, the stamina, or that special quality that real leaders must have to lead.”

According to Trump, leadership requires “a special power.” He emphasized that real leaders possess qualities that Kamala simply doesn’t have.
Trump’s remarks come as he continues to challenge the Biden administration's treatment of his supporters. He believes this disdain reflects a deeper issue with leadership in America today.
As the rally drew to a close, Trump reiterated his belief that love for the country is essential for any leader. “You can’t lead America if you don’t love Americans.”
