Vice President Kamala Harris yesterday asserted that the United States of America (USA) was ready to elect its first woman President.
Harris, who is vying for the American presidency against former President Donald Trump, downplayed her rhetoric bid, saying she simply wants to turn the page for a nation “exhausted” by Trump.
With two weeks to Election Day, Harris and Trump are saturating swing states with rallies and taking to the airwaves and podcasts on the hunt for an advantage in a race that polls suggest is effectively tied.

With Trump facing multiple pending criminal charges as he competes against Harris to succeed Biden, the White House has been very careful not to weigh in on the Republican’s legal problems.
