Harris Visits Georgia Churches for Birthday as Trump Works at Pennsylvania McDonald’s

Share post to:

As Kamala Harris celebrated her 60th birthday on Sunday, she made campaign stops at Black churches in Georgia, while her 78-year-old rival Donald Trump served fries at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania, aiming to connect with blue-collar voters during the final stretch of the closely contested U.S. election.

Music legend Stevie Wonder joined Harris at one of her stops in an Atlanta suburb, serenading her with “Happy Birthday” and urging attendees to vote with a sense of community responsibility. Harris echoed this call, emphasizing the importance of focusing on the well-being of children, families, and helping people out of poverty.

Speaking earlier at a Baptist megachurch near Atlanta, Harris called on the congregation to embrace compassion, while criticizing those who spread division and fear — a subtle reference to Trump, though she did not mention him by name.

Georgia, a key battleground state, could be pivotal in deciding the outcome of the November 5 election. Both Harris and Trump also planned campaign events in Pennsylvania later in the day, another critical state for both parties.

Trump Takes McDonald’s Centre Stage

With the election just over two weeks away, the competition between the Democratic vice president and the Republican former president is heating up. While Harris delivered a hopeful message to Black churchgoers, Trump appeared cheerful as he handed out fries at a McDonald’s near Philadelphia, wearing an apron over his usual shirt and tie.

The stop was seen as a playful jab at Harris, who has mentioned working at a McDonald’s in her youth — a claim Trump has repeatedly questioned without evidence. Trump humorously wished Harris a happy birthday, quipping that he might send her fries as a gift.

Campaign Strategies and Fitness Questions

As the campaign nears its conclusion, both Harris and Trump have raised questions about each other’s fitness for office. Harris has highlighted Trump’s apparent avoidance of debates and interviews, while Trump continues to hold marathon rallies, engaging in spontaneous and sometimes controversial remarks.

With both candidates focusing on key swing states, their supporters are also mobilizing. Elon Musk has been campaigning for Trump, while Harris has garnered support from celebrities like Lizzo and Usher, with Lizzo rallying voters in Detroit by declaring that it’s time for America to have its first female president.
