With just two weeks left until the U.S. presidential election, the two candidates—Democratic nominee Kamala Harris and Republican nominee Donald Trump—are fully engaged in their election campaigns. On Sunday, Kamala Harris participated in prayers at two churches in Georgia, while Donald Trump appeared at a McDonald's restaurant with his supporters, where he cooked and distributed French fries.
Kamala Harris's church visits were part of her campaign, where she spoke against the efforts to create division, hatred, and chaos across the country. At the New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Stonecrest, Georgia, she called on the audience to vote for a "compassionate future." Her speech emphasized unity and solidarity, which has become a central message of her campaign.
On the other hand, Donald Trump was involved in dramatic and attention-grabbing activities during his campaign. At a McDonald's in Philadelphia, he cooked French fries and handed them out to supporters outside the restaurant. Wearing a black-and-yellow apron and removing his suit to fry the fries, this incident was highlighted in the media as a typical example of Trump’s flair for creating spectacles. Supporters gathered across the street to enjoy the scene, where he remarked, "I'm really enjoying this."
Trump's visit to McDonald's was also symbolic, as Kamala Harris had previously claimed she worked at a McDonald's in California during her student days. Trump dismissed her claim as "false," although he did not provide any evidence to support his assertion. He suggested that his visit to the fast-food restaurant was intended to "shake up" Harris's campaign, as he does not find her connection with McDonald's credible.
So far, the election campaigns have been focused on competitive battleground states. Kamala Harris is making earnest efforts to secure the support of early voters in Georgia, where she is delivering messages against division and chaos. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump is campaigning in Pennsylvania, attempting to win over supporters with his presence at various locations. Both candidates are intensifying their efforts to win voters' hearts in the final stretch of the campaign, adding to the excitement of the upcoming election.
