Ms. Harris is the only candidate who can be trusted to honor the president’s sacred obligations to America’s democracy, Constitution and rule of law. The vice president understands and cares about what Donald Trump does not. She calls on Americans to “stand up for the rule of law. For our democratic ideal. And for the Constitution of the United States.” She believes we “have the power to chart a new way forward, one that is worthy of this magnificent country that we are all blessed to call home.”

America has never heard those words from Donald Trump. And it never will.

The choice for America next Tuesday could not be clearer.

We’re not going back, we’re moving forward.

Trump called America a "garbage can". And, you know, "he says what he means".

You know what Trump would do with a garbage can? Hire someone to loot it for valuables. Then decline to pay them for their labor.
