Harris Hosts Enthusiastic Rally Of 10,000 In Atlanta For First Visit To Georgia Since Clinching Nomination

Vice President Kamala Harris (D) held her first rally in Atlanta since becoming the presumptive Democratic nominee.

On Tuesday, Harris and numerous notable guests spoke to a crowd of 10,000 at Georgia State University’s Convocation Center.

Numerous Democrats spoke before Harris, including former state Rep. Stacey Abrams, Mayor Andre Dickens, Rep. Nikema Williams, Sen. Jon Ossoff and Sen. Raphael Warnock.

Additionally, rapper Megan Thee Stallion spoke in favor of Harris and performed a few songs for the crowd.

“Now I know my ladies in the crowd love their bodies,” she said. “And if you want to keep loving your body, you know who to vote for.”

Quavo, a rapper in the group Migos, also spoke to the crowd. Quavo has worked with Harris regarding gun violence following the death of his nephew due to a shooting.

Harris addressed her record as a prosecutor, district attorney and the attorney general of California. She also attacked former President Donald Trump, saying that she knew his type due to her role as a prosecutor.

“In those roles, I took on perpetrators of all kinds, predators who abused women, fraudsters who ripped off consumers, cheaters who broke the rules for their own gain,” Harris said. “So, hear me when I say, I know Donald Trump’s type.”

Harris also spoke about Trump refusing to debate in September after President Joe Biden dropped out as the Democratic nominee.

“Here’s the funny thing about that: So, he won’t debate, but he and his running mate sure seem to have a lot to say about me,” Harris said. “And, by the way, don’t you find some of their stuff to just be plain weird? Well, Donald? I do hope you’ll reconsider to meet me on the debate stage, because as the saying goes, ‘If you’ve got something to say, say it to my face.'”
