The Facts

  • Vice Pres. Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, Tuesday night in a speech given before an estimated 75K people at the Ellipse in Washington, D.C. made a please to undecided voters to "turn the page" and "stop pointing fingers and start locking arms" by voting for her instead of her Republican opponent, former Pres. Donald Trump.

  • Speaking from the same area where Trump famously addressed his supporters before the Jan. 6, 2021 riots at the US Capitol, Harris told the crowd she will listen to everyone, "even if you don't vote" for her.

  • Harris also struck out at Trump, mentioning him 24 times, and calling him a "petty tyrant" who's "unstable, obsessed with revenge, consumed with grievance" and determined to obtain "unchecked power."
