Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has once again attacked his Democratic opponent Kamala Harris, calling her "stupid", a "lunatic" and a "radical left-wing freak".

"She has a really low IQ", he claimed during a campaign appearance in Atlanta, Georgia. Trump denigrated the incumbent vice president and Democratic presidential candidate as a "lunatic" and a "radical left-wing freak".

Comparison with Bernie Sanders
The Republican compared Harris to Senator Bernie Sanders, who himself had run for the Democratic presidential nomination in the past and stands for very left-wing positions. "She's worse than Bernie Sanders. She's like Bernie Sanders, but not as smart," he mocked. "She's a dumb version of Bernie Sanders, and even further left than him."

She's like Bernie Sanders, but not as smart. She's a dumb version of Bernie Sanders, and even further to the left than him.

Trump calls himself a "very mentally stable genius" 
Trump hurls vile insults at his opponents as standard. In the past, he has also disparaged several people in relation to their alleged low intelligence quotient and in turn described himself as a "very mentally stable genius".

Defiant reaction to a good start to the election campaign
The fact that he is currently stepping up his tone towards his opponent in the presidential election in November may also have something to do with the fact that Harris currently has some momentum in the election campaign.

She is currently generating a high level of donations and is doing better in initial polls against Trump than US President Joe Biden, who originally wanted to run against the Republican but dropped out of the race under pressure from his party.
