Kamala Harris, the US vice president and Democratic nominee, made a bold appearance at DNC on Thursday to deliver the biggest speech of her career.

She entered the 2024 presidential contest following President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the campaign after his dismal debate performance against Donald Trump.

During her address, Harris first paid tribute to Biden, who paved the door for her to attend tonight’s DNC.

“I love you so very much to our President, Joe Biden,” the US VP asserted. “When I think about the path that we have traveled together, Joe, I am filled with gratitude.”

Calling the record of POTUS “extraordinary”, she said, “Your character is inspiring.” “Doug and I love you and Jill and are forever thankful to you both.”

Before her DNC appearance, Biden and former First Lady Jill Biden spoke to Harris over phone. Later in a post on X, Biden asserted: “Kamala and Tim will inspire a generation and lead us into the future.”

Harris, who formally accepted the Democratic nomination for president, told the crowd: “I accept your nomination to be President of the United States of America.”

She promised to be the president for “all the Americans”, adding that “You can always trust me to put country above party and self.”

As the Democratic contender has been drawing on her experience as a state and local prosecutor, she noted: “My entire career I’ve only had one client the people.”

Harris’ catchphrase during her unsuccessful 2020 presidential campaign was “For the People.”

She presented herself as a “realistic” and “practical” leader and pledged to serve as “a president who leads and listens, who is realistic, practical and has common sense and always fights for the American people.”

“In many ways, Donald Trump is an unserious man. But the consequences, but the consequences of putting Donald Trump back in the White House are extremely serious,” she asserted.

She told the crowd that Trump attempted to “discard your ballots”. “When he failed, he sent an armed mob to the United States Capitol, where they assaulted, law enforcement officers.”

“They know he is easy to manipulate with flattery and favors,” she continued.

Harris went on to declare that she will “stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself,” but also insisted that a cease-fire in Gaza must be “done.”

“Now is the time to get a hostage deal and a cease-fire deal done!” she said, amidst thunderous cheers.

“And let me be clear, I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself,” she said.

She blasted Trump for giving his congressional friends the order to sabotage the agreement. She vowed to revive the bipartisan border security bill that Trump “killed” and ensure that it becomes law.
