Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Barack Obama made the case that Donald Trump is too “out of touch” to be president at her campaign’s biggest rally of the election cycle so far.

During their joint event in Atlanta, Georgia, Obama and Harris painted Trump as a wealthy man who can’t understand the challenges that everyday Americans face.

“Just imagine the Oval Office in three months … there’s a choice everyone has to make,” Harris said. “It’s either Donald Trump stewing over his enemies list. Or it’s me, working for you, checking off my to-do list.”
