Kamala Harris hits out at Trump in first major speech since losing election

Former vice-president Kamala Harris has criticised the Trump administration’s agenda in her first major speech since losing the US election.

Speaking at an event run by Emerge, a political organisation that recruits and trains Democratic women to run for public office, she singled out the administration’s handling of the economy and immigration policy.

But, she said, “fear isn’t the only thing that’s contagious. Courage is contagious”.
