'I’ll see you at your trial,' Kamala Harris Hits Back At Trump
Sen. Kamala Harris hit back at President Donald Trump Tuesday after he mocked her sudden exit from the 2020 Democratic primary race on Twitter.
Trump, who has previously found joy when democratic opponents exited the 2020 campaign trail, decided to allegedly mock Harris after his former campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, tweeted about Harris leaving the race.
"Too bad. We will miss you Kamala Harris!" Trump tweeted.
Harris’ response came immediately.
"Don't worry, Mr. President. I'll see you at your trial," she shot back at Trump referring to the potential impeachment trial.
On Tuesday, the House Intelligence Committee released its draft report, detailing the findings of the lawmakers' weeks-long investigations, which accused Trump of abusing his power to get Ukraine to investigate his political rivals.
Should Trump be ultimately impeached for his actions, Harris would serve as a juror in the Senate.
Harris had earlier announced on Tuesday that she would be dropping out of the 2020 campaign trail, making her one of the biggest names to exit the race following withdrawal of former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke. The California Democrat who had entered the race as a top candidate with a strong donor base cited dwindling poll numbers as one of the reasons to drop out of the race.
"In good faith, I can’t tell you, my supporters and volunteers, that I have a path forward if I don’t believe I do. So, to you my supporters, it is with deep regret -- but also with deep gratitude -- that I am suspending my campaign today," Harris said.
Her campaign was also spending more than what was coming in. Harris was forced to dramatically cut her staff in New Hampshire, to focus her efforts on Iowa, as media coverage of her campaign struggling continued.
“I’ve taken stock and looked at this from every angle, and over the last few days have come to one of the hardest decisions of my life. My campaign for president simply doesn’t have the financial resources we need to continue,” she said. “I’m not a billionaire. I can’t fund my own campaign. And as the campaign has gone on, it’s become harder and harder to raise the money we need to compete.
Former Vice President Joe Biden, Senators Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. are currently leading the race for Democratic Presidential nomination.
