Breaking: Putin will eat you for lunch’: Watch Kamala Harris predict Trump would concede to Russian President….See More

Drawing from her own experience, Harris detailed her involvement in rallying support for Ukraine, recalling a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky just days before Russia’s invasion.

In a fiery presidential debate held in September 2024, Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris took direct aim at President Donald Trump, warning that his approach to global diplomacy would embolden Russian President Vladimir Putin. Harris’s remarks, delivered with sharp precision, put Trump on the defensive as she accused him of being weak in the face of authoritarian leaders.

Harris’s critique centered on Trump’s repeated claim that he could end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours. Rather than viewing this as a sign of diplomatic prowess, Harris suggested it was a tacit admission of surrender. “I believe the reason that Donald Trump says that this war would be over within 24 hours is because he would just give it up,” she stated emphatically. “And that’s not who we are as Americans.”

Drawing from her own experience, Harris detailed her involvement in rallying support for Ukraine, recalling a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky just days before Russia’s invasion. She highlighted how, through coordinated intelligence sharing and strategic alliances, the Biden administration had played a key role in bolstering Ukraine’s defense.

Tried through force to change territorial boundaries to defy one of the most important international rules and norms, which is the importance of sovereignty and territorial integrity,” Harris continued. She underscored how the U.S. had helped unite 50 countries in supporting Ukraine, supplying vital military aid, including Javelins, Abrams tanks, and advanced air defense systems.

She then issued a stark warning about what could have happened under Trump’s leadership: “If Donald Trump were president, Putin would be sitting in Kiev right now.” Harris cautioned that the Russian leader’s ambitions extended beyond Ukraine, threatening Europe as a whole.

Further pressing Trump on his cozy relationship with Putin, she invoked the importance of NATO and the security of America’s allies. “Understand why the European allies and our NATO allies are so thankful that you are no longer president,” she said, pointing out that Trump’s past rhetoric had undermined the integrity of the world’s most powerful military alliance.

Harris’s most biting remark came when she addressed Polish-Americans, particularly in Pennsylvania, a key battleground state. She challenged Trump to explain how he would justify abandoning allies in favor of a dictator. “Why don’t you tell the 800,000 Polish-Americans right here in Pennsylvania how quickly you would give up for the sake of favor and what you think is a friendship with what is known to be a dictator who can eat you for lunch?”
