Trump Says RFK Jr. Should Be in Charge of Women’s Health and Liz Cheney Should Get Shot in the Face

Will this “closing message” resonate with moderate undecided voters? In the final few days of a campaign, candidates try to project a “closing message” that they believe will win over any remaining undecided voters. Kamala Harris gave a speech outlining her version of this message on Tuesday, which went something like this: Donald Trump wants to be president so that he can order the military to imprison his enemies, whereas I want to be president to do normal Democratic president stuff. The Trump campaign, as always, is approaching things more creatively. (…) Trump, holding a Thursday event with Tucker Carlson, said that he would assign Kennedy “to work on health and women’s health.” This is, frankly, an ominous promise: Among the stories about RFK Jr. and women that circulated during the campaign were decade-old reports about diaries in which he recorded having cheated on his then-wife 37 times in one year, present-day accusations that he helped break up the engagement of a journalist who covered him by “sexting” with her, and a Vanity Fair piece in which a woman who worked for him as a nanny said he had repeatedly harassed and touched her sexually without her consent. (…) At another point during the Carlson event, Trump said the following about former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney, who renounced her support for the former president after the Jan. 6 Capitol riots and has campaigned with Harris: She’s a radical war hawk. Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? Let’s see how she feels about it, you know, when the guns are trained on her face.
