Trump trolls Kamala over skipping event because of him and he appears to hit a nerve

President Trump slammed Sen. Kamala Harris for her cowardly decision to skip a planned speech at a historically black college because he was honored with an award there.

Trump sparked a war of words with the California Democrat, calling her a “badly failing presidential candidate” after she withdrew from a forum at Benedict College in South Carolina where the president was honored for getting a highly praised criminal justice reform bill passed last year.

Harris would not be going “to a very wonderful largely African American event today because yesterday I [received] a major award, at the same event, for being able to produce & sign into law major Criminal Justice Reform legislation,” Trump tweeted Saturday, referring to the First Step Act.

“This and best unemployment numbers EVER is more than Kamala will EVER be able to do for African Americans!” he added.

The 2019 Second Step Presidential Justice Forum at Benedict College was scheduled to have Harris speak on Saturday, but the former California Attorney General backed out Friday, citing Trump in her decision.

“As the only candidate who attended an [historically black college or university], I know the importance that these spaces hold for young Black Americans,” Harris said in a statement.
