“I don’t know her family situation,” he continued, referring to Harris. “I read in the media that she has two stepchildren. I wish her stepchildren, and Kamala Harris and her entire family, the best. The problem is not that she is inferior; the problem is that her party has pursued a series of policies that are extremely anti-child.”
