Trump’s Nephew Endorses Kamala

Fred Trump III, nephew of former President Donald Trump, recently declared his intention to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming November election. Trump III, who is promoting his new memoir, All in the Family: The Trumps and How We Got This Way, expressed his support for Harris’s policies, stating he aligns with her views “without question.”

Appearing on ABC’s The View, Trump III was asked about his voting intentions for the November election. He revealed that he would not only vote for Harris but would also be willing to campaign for her if given the opportunity. “I prioritize policy over politics,” Trump III explained. “Kamala Harris’s policies resonate with me, and I would support her without hesitation.”

Trump III also speculated that his uncle might run for president again in the future if he loses the 2024 election, asserting, “He ain’t going anywhere.” This declaration of support for Harris was promptly shared by the Harris campaign on social media.

During his interview, Trump III recounted a personal story from 1999, alleging that his uncle, when informed about a financial shortfall in the medical fund for his disabled son, suggested that he let his son die and relocate to Florida. Trump’s campaign has vehemently denied these allegations, labeling them as “completely fabricated” and a “blatantly disgusting lie.”

In response to the interview, Trump’s campaign issued a strong rebuttal, asserting that anyone familiar with President Trump would recognize that such statements are inconsistent with his character. The campaign’s statement underscored that similar accusations have been thoroughly debunked.

Fred Trump III’s distancing from his famous uncle mirrors the stance of other family members like Mary Trump, who has frequently criticized her uncle and questioned why he remains politically active despite legal challenges.

Recent polling data reflects a modest increase in Kamala Harris’s favorability ratings, which have risen from 35% to 43% following President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the 2024 race. In hypothetical matchups, former President Trump currently holds a slim lead over Harris, with the margin of error in the poll being plus or minus 3.3 percentage points.
