In an interview with Elon Musk on X (formerly Twitter), former US President Donald Trump commented on Democratic Vice Presidential candidate Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.

Trump’s remarks have sparked significant debate among political commentators and the public.

During the interview, Trump criticised Harris, labelling her as a "radical left lunatic" and accusing her of being "far more left than Bernie Sanders.”

He further condemned her policies on Israel, alleging that she is "so anti-Israel" and that her choice of Walz as running mate reflects her "anti-Israel radical left" stance.

According to Trump, the incumbent Vice-President and Democrats candidate for the upcoming US Presidential elections is worse than Biden in regards to her Israel policy and this according to him makes her potentially harmful to both Israelis and Palestinians.

Trump's comments extended to a broader critique of Harris’s approach to foreign policy, suggesting it exacerbates tensions in the Middle East.

He claimed that the current administration, under President Joe Biden and Harris, has alienated both Israeli and Palestinian parties.

Trump expressed sympathy for Israel, which is bracing for potential Iranian attacks, and he criticised the lack of effective leadership from the US.

The former president also discussed his proposed strategies for dealing with Iran.

He emphasised his intention to impose stricter measures on Iran and suggested that his administration would have prevented attacks on Israel had he been in office.

Trump’s remarks on Harris’s suitability have stirred controversy, especially his suggestion that Jewish voters supporting Harris should have their "heads examined."
