The 42nd President of the United States, Bill Clinton, delivered a speech at the Democratic National Convention's day 3, where he spoke about the "clear choice" in the upcoming election. He mocked Donald Trump, calling him a self-interested man who doesn't care about the everyday problems of Americans, citing NBC News.
In his speech, Clinton highlighted the difference between Trump's obsession with the size of the crowds at his rallies and Harris's focus on improving the lives of ordinary Americans.
According to him, Harris is truly a presidential candidate "for the people," while "The other guy is about me, myself and I."
The former US president believes that choosing Harris and Walz would be a true "breath of fresh air" for Americans.
"You'll be proud of it for the rest of your life. Your children will be proud of it. Your grandchildren will be proud of it," Clinton said, adding that he will do his part.
After Clinton's speech, Trump's campaign spokesperson, Steven Cheung, issued a statement harshly criticizing the 42nd US president.
"Bill Clinton is a total loser who is desperately clinging onto whatever spotlight he can get because nobody cares what he has to say. The sad reality is that he, along with Crooked Hillary, suffers from Trump Derangement Syndrome and has let it rot his brain to the point that he is a shell of a shell of a person he once was," Cheung noted in his statement.
