After former Vice President Kamala Harris claimed the US Presidential Elections of 2024 as “the closest Presidential Election in the 21st Century” during her book tour, US President Donald Trump called his Democratic rival “DUMB AS A ROCK”.

“Kamala Harris, who is DUMB AS A ROCK, is going around and using, as a standard part of her Speech on why she lost the Election, that 2024 was the ‘closest Presidential Election in the 21st Century.’ Everyone knows this is a lie and was covered as such by Fox News!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

The US President insisted that he won by a “LANDSLIDE” by winning swing states like Arizona and Michigan and argued that he was up against what he called a “RIGGED” mail-in ballot system in California and called Kamala Harris’ statement false.

He demanded an apology from Harris saying that he won the Electoral College 312–226 and secured the popular vote “by millions” and compared his victory with that of George W. Bush’s 2000 win, which came down to 537 votes.

Kamala Harris while promoting her memoir 107 Days has repeatedly called the 2024 race as the “closest presidential race in the 21st century”. She claimed that there were structural disadvantages with her campaign after President Joe Biden withdrew from the race in July 2024.

She also highlighted that she was left with only three months to mount a challenge against Trump.

“Biden decides not to run. The sitting vice president then takes the mantle, running against a former president of the United States who had been running for ten years, with 107 days until the election,” Harris was quoted as saying by US broadcaster ABC News.
