Asked to name three of her rival’s virtues, the vice president says, ‘I think Donald Trump loves his family, and I think that is very important.’

Vice President Kamala Harris participated in Univision’s presidential town hall in Las Vegas on Oct. 10 as part of her campaign’s final push to win over undecided Latino voters, who could hold significant sway in the upcoming election.

Enrique Acevedo, a Mexico-based anchor, moderated the town hall, which featured nearly 100 Latino voters from across the nation.

Harris fielded questions about healthcare policy, immigration, inflation, abortion rights, and the federal government’s response to recent hurricanes. She defended her record on immigration and repeated her support for “Dreamers,” stating that they should be on a path to earn their citizenship.

She also talked about the border bill negotiated in the Senate early this year, blaming former President Donald Trump, her election rival, for derailing it.

One notable moment occurred when a voter asked the Democratic candidate to name three virtues of Trump.

“I think Donald Trump loves his family, and I think that is very important,” Harris responded.

She said, however, that she didn’t know the Republican nominee well enough. “I don’t have much more to offer you,” Harris said.

In another notable moment, an undecided voter expressed his frustration over the way President Joe Biden quit the race and questioned how Harris became the party’s nominee.

Harris thanked the voter for being “candid” and praised Biden for making a decision she believed history would recognize as “one of the most courageous that a president could make.”

The vice president added that she had been “partners” with Biden for the past four years and was “honored to have earned the Democratic nomination.” She also mentioned that numerous individuals and organizations, including some Republicans, had endorsed her.

After the event, Harris flew to Phoenix for a rally in another battleground state.

Latino voters have historically favored Democrats and played an important role in key swing states. In Arizona and Nevada, Latinos account for 25 percent and 22 percent of eligible voters, respectively.
