Walz-ing into battle! Harris and her VP pick taunt rival Trump at first rally

Vice-president Ms Harris introduced the Minnesota governor to the US at a campaign rally in the battleground state of Pennsylvania last night. She said: “He’s the kind of person who makes people feel like they belong and then inspires them to dream big.”

Mr Walz swiftly took a swipe at Trump and his running mate J D Vance. “Just an observation of mind, I just have to say it. These guys are creepy and, yes, just weird as hell,” he jibed.

Revving up the crowd of Democrats for what is expected to be a high-octane campaign against the Republicans, he added: “We’ve got 91 days. My God, that’s easy. We’ll sleep when we’re dead.”

Ms Harris and her vice-president pick Mr Walz were today rallying Democrats across the Midwest, a politically divided region that is crucial to their effort to win the White House on November 5.
