Trump Makes Shocking Claims Against Kamala Harris Accusing Her Of 'Anti-Semitism', Wanting 'Chemical Castration' Of Children
He baselessly accused Harris of skipping Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech to the US Congress due to anti-Semitism, despite her attending a prior commitment instead.
In a speech aimed at rallying religious supporters, US presidential candidate Donald Trump accused his election rival Kamala Harris of being anti-Semitic and of planning to allow the murder of newborn babies. This speech quickly went off track. Harris, married to a Jewish man, has gained ground on Trump in polls since she replaced Joe Biden at the top of the Democratic ticket.
Trump's address at a religious convention in southern Florida heavily criticised Harris's record as a senator and vice president, but many of his attacks were unfounded. He baselessly accused Harris of skipping Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech to the US Congress due to anti-Semitism, despite her attending a prior commitment instead, news agency AFP reported.
Trump claimed, without evidence, that she dislikes Jewish people and Israel. "She doesn't like Jewish people. She doesn't like Israel. That's the way it is, and that's the way it's always going to be. She's not going to change," he said, AFP reported.

Days after his campaign claimed that an attempt on his life had inspired him to focus on unity, Trump's divisive rhetoric escalated with this remark and his assertion that Harris "is totally against the Jewish people" in North Carolina on Wednesday.
The speech on Friday has raised legitimate questions over the previous statements of Harris on policing, immigration, and the environment that placed her to the left of current Biden administration policy. But it was drawn by hyperbole and falsehood, AFP's report stated.
Harris Wants To Force Doctors To Chemically Castrate Children: Trump
Trump, who is currently fighting multiple indictments, baselessly suggested that the Justice Department and FBI were targeting Christians and anti-abortion activists for their beliefs. He also described Biden's departure from the election campaign as a "coup" by Democrats and called America a "laughing stock."
Trump saved his harshest criticism for Harris, calling her a "bum" and falsely accusing her of rejecting federal judges for being Catholic and planning to appoint "hardcore Marxists" to the US Supreme Court. He also made the unfounded claim that Harris wants to force doctors to chemically castrate children with drugs and suggested that she might cheat to win the election.
"If Kamala Harris has her way, they will have a federal law for abortion, to rip the baby out of the womb in the eighth, ninth month and even after birth -- execute the baby after birth," he claimed, as quoted by AFP.
78-year-old now the oldest major-party nominee in history, Trump is frantically trying to turn the election around against a candidate two decades his junior after anticipating to take on an 81-year-old incumbent Biden who is plagued by health issues.
