Vice President Kamala Harris is gearing up for the final stretch of the presidential race with a focus on highlighting former President Trump’s alleged mental unfitness for office. Harris argues that Trump’s advanced age and a string of bizarre incidents make him dangerous, while Trump’s campaign claims that Harris lacks intelligence. Polls show that public opinion of Trump’s mental fitness is declining, and concerns about his acuity are mounting.
Last week, more than 230 healthcare professionals called on Trump to release his medical records amid worries about his mental acuity. Mental health experts also gathered recently to discuss the unique threat they believe Trump poses due to potential mental illness. Harris’ campaign launched an ad warning that Trump would be “more unhinged, unstable, and unchecked” if re-elected.
Trump has dismissed concerns about his mental fitness, touting his energy and intelligence. However, videos of him dancing awkwardly at a rally and making confusing remarks have fueled speculation. Harris has kept her focus on Trump’s perceived instability. Trump has criticized Harris in response, further driving the narrative that his mental fitness is in question. The upcoming election will showcase a battle of narratives regarding the mental acuity of both candidates, with Harris trying to cement herself as the more stable option.
