“They struggled to attack her when she was running and will struggle now,” one former Trump campaign official said.

And Trump himself didn’t seem to know the plan of attack against Harris, even though it was increasingly obvious Biden was going to select a woman of color for the role. At a news conference Tuesday evening, Trump had to ask a reporter to repeat the nickname his own campaign used in advertising and fundraising appeals released minutes after the announcement.

The president also reverted to sexist attacks against Harris, describing her as “nasty” at least four times in as many minutes. That’s a familiar position for Trump, according to one outside adviser, who said he has been comfortable launching those kinds of attacks though it’s unclear how effective it will be.

In the same conversation, Pierson and Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., had difficulty differentiating between the notions that Harris was both too overzealous as a prosecutor and also not tough enough on crime.

We as Republicans don't need to attack any one. We need to bring forth truth about candidates, issues, and make voters aware, and what our party has to offer America. Name calling, NO!

Trump Can't Be Racist Because He Donated Money To Kamala Harris, Says Trump CampaignPresident Trump has already gleefully taken to calling Sen. Kamala Harris—Joe Biden’s official 2020 running mate— “nasty” and “mean,” but he must not have thought she was so bad when he donated $6,000 to her re-election campaign.\n And he’s friends with Kanye. You can be racist if you have acknowledged that someone is black. Noticing someone is black is the pinnacle of anti-racism
