Trump suggests California clearing homeless camps to make Harris look better
Former President Donald Trump on Thursday suggested that Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., had issued an executive order offering guidance on the removal of homeless camps to clean up the state ahead of the election and improve Vice President Kamala Harris's image.
Newsom issued the executive order on Thursday, offering guidance on the removal of homeless camps in the wake of a Supreme Court decision clearing the way for such action by local governments, the Associated Press reported. The order does not require that local governments take action to clear the homeless camps, but does direct state agencies to prioritize the clearing of camps that pose safety risks.
"Why didn't Gavin Newscum do this a long time ago?" Trump asked. "He's only doing it because, just like Crooked Joe Biden, his Radical Left Democrat Presidential Candidate, Lyin' Kamala Harris, is losing BIG in the Polls."
"They just did it for Political Reasons, because she comes from California, and looks terrible. Right after the Election, it will go back to SLUM LIKE condition, unless we WIN — THEN, AMERICA WILL BE GREAT AGAIN!" he went on.
Harris formerly represented California in the U.S. Senate. While Trump suggested the move could have been motivated by politics, some analysts see little prospect for the move to benefit the vice president.
"Harris' problem isn’t in California, because California is a done deal. Where she needs to do well on issues like this are in swing states," California political analyst Brian Sobel told the AP.
