Vice President Kamala Harris told a Michigan church on Sunday that God offers America a "divine plan strong enough to heal division," while former President Donald Trump gave a profane and conspiracy-laden speech in which he mused about reporters being shot and labeled Democrats as "demonic."
The two major candidates took starkly different tones on the final Sunday of the campaign. Less than 48 hours before Election Day, Harris, the Democratic vice president, argued that Tuesday's election offers voters the chance to reject "chaos, fear and hate," while Trump, the Republican former president, repeated lies about voter fraud to try to cast doubt on the integrity of the vote and suggested that the country was falling apart without him in office.
Harris was concentrating her Sunday in Michigan, beginning the day with a few hundred parishioners at Detroit's Greater Emmanuel Institutional Church of God in Christ. It marked the fourth consecutive Sunday that Harris, who is Baptist, has spoken to a Black congregation, a reflection of how critical Black voters are across multiple battleground states.
"I see faith in action in remarkable ways," she said in remarks that quoted the Old Testament prophet Jeremiah. "I see a nation determined to turn the page on hate and division and chart a new way forward. As I travel, I see Americans from so-called red states and so-called blue states who are ready to bend the arc of history toward justice."
