US Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said on Wednesday that Americans should “remove” Republican candidate Donald Trump from politics, just two weeks after a second assassination attempt was made on his life.
Raimondo spoke to MSNBC's “Morning Joe” about Trump's promise Speaking at a rally in Pennsylvania on Monday, she said she was “infuriated” and degraded Trump's comments about being the “protector” of women, and blamed him for the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade in June 2022. She called on American voters to “change course” and put aside Trump's “vengeance” and “hatred of women.”
“When I saw it, when I saw The Guardian, it was infuriating and it was horrifying, and it's bullshit. Not only is it wrong and a lie, it's degrading to us,” Raimondo said. “We're not that stupid. We know he's lying, and we don't need this bullshit that he's going to protect us. We know for a fact how he feels about women. He's disrespectful to women, to say the least, and he's the one who overturned Roe… What he's saying is the exact opposite. It's another lie. How did we get to this? Let's erase it.” [Trump] “Forever. The answer is there. We have a very talented candidate who is honest, realistic and open. Let's just get it done.”
Co-host Mika Brzezinski asked the Commerce Secretary to clarify whether he was saying Trump should be voted out of office and banned from American politics.
“Vote him out. Yes, vote him out of American politics. Just vote him out and he'll be gone,” Raimondo continued.[Vice President Kamala Harris’] “Let's move forward with a new path, her vision, turning the page on his confusion and madness, his desire for revenge, his flawed economic strategies and his hatred of women.”
