Donald Trump hurled his worst slur yet at Vice President Kamala Harris while speaking to his supporters in a small Wisconsin town on Saturday.
The former president insulted Harris as he ranted about illegal border crossings, describing her as ‘mentally impaired.’
‘Kamala is mentally impaired. If a Republican did what she did that Republican would be impeached and removed from office and rightfully so for high crimes and misdemeanors,’ Trump began.
Trump claimed the Democratic nominee was responsible for migrants who have come into the country illegally and have committed crimes.

Trump described Harris as ‘mentally impaired. ‘Pictured, Harris at the Douglas Port of Entry at the US-Mexico border in Douglas, Arizona on Friday
‘Think of it – 13,099 convicted murderers. They’re all our country now. And I’ve been saying this for three years. She let in rapists, gang members, drug dealers, child predators and traffickers in women,’ he ranted.
‘Joe Biden became mentally impaired. Kamala was born that way. She was born that way,’ Trump repeated.
‘And if you think about it only a mentally disabled person could have allowed this to happen to our country.’
Trump’s comments come amid a torrent of racist and sexist attacks from him and his allies against Harris, the first woman and first black and South Asian person to serve as U.S. vice president.
Trump has called Harris ‘crazy,’ ‘nuts’ and ‘dumb as a rock,’ and claimed that the Jamaican-Indian vice president previously downplayed her black heritage.
Last month he came under fire for sharing a post suggesting his opponent was only successful because of a ‘blowjob.’
During Saturday’s rally Trump added that Harris could never be forgiven for ‘erasing our border.’ Pictured, arris, center, talks with John Modlin, the chief patrol agent for the Tucson Sector of the U.S. Border Patrol on Saturday

The original comment was made by another Truth Social media user, who wrote, below a picture of Harris and Trump’s 2016 Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton: “Funny how blowjobs impacted both their careers differently…”
Trump, meanwhile, inherited significant wealth from his father, Fred Trump, a successful New York real estate developer.
While Trump expanded his business, he faced financial challenges, with six of his companies filing for bankruptcy between 1991 and 2009, mainly in the casino industry.
The bankruptcies were used to restructure debt, never affecting his personal finances directly.
Trump has often claimed success in real estate and branding despite these setbacks while the true extent of his wealth remains a subject of debate.
One thing Trump is not short of is insults and nicknames. Last month he took another thinly veiled jab at Harris as he described himself as ‘better looking’.
Trump, 78, began musing on Harris’ recent image on the cover of Time magazine, which he has previously compared to his wife Melania.
‘I am much better looking than her,’ Trump said, drawing laughs from the crowd. ‘I’m a better looking person than Kamala.’
During Saturday’s rally Trump added that Harris could never be forgiven for ‘erasing our border.’
‘She must never be allowed to become president of the United States,’ he went on.
‘She’s letting in people who are going to walk into your house, break into your door,’ he said.
Trump also professed to not understand what Harris meant when she said he was responsible for taking children from their parents.

Under his administration, Trump separated children from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border in a policy that was condemned globally as inhumane and one that Trump himself ended.
The former president is hoping frustration over illegal immigration will translate to votes in Wisconsin and other crucial swing states.
The Republican nominee has denounced people who cross the U.S.-Mexico border as ‘poisoning the blood of the country’ and vowed to stage the largest deportation operation in American history if elected.
‘I will liberate Wisconsin from the mass migrant invasion,’ he said. ‘We’re going to liberate the country.’
Trump has repeatedly portrayed migrants as criminals and blamed Harris for failing to stem an unprecedented surge in illegal immigration, although border crossings fell since President Joe Biden instituted an executive order limiting asylum claims.
Democrats, in turn, have blamed Trump for persuading allies in Congress to kill bipartisan legislation that would have funded more border agents and given the Homeland Security secretary authority to prohibit entry for most people over a daily limit.
On the Wisconsin rally stage with Trump were three mugshots of men in the U.S. illegally accused of a crime, including Alejandro Jose Coronel Zarate, a case Trump cited in his speech
On the Wisconsin rally stage with Trump were three mugshots of men in the U.S. illegally accused of a crime, including Alejandro Jose Coronel Zarate, a case Trump cited in his speech.
Wisconsin Republicans in recent days have held up the story of Coronel Zarate’s arrest in Prairie du Chien as more evidence that people in the country illegally are committing crimes across the United States, not just in southern border states.
Prosecutors charged Coronel Zarate on September 18 with sexual assault, child abuse, strangulation and domestic abuse.
Police Chief Kyle Teynor posted statements on Facebook saying that Coronel Zarate is not a U.S. citizen and that he had two fake immigration documents, including a fake Social Security card.
The chief added that Coronel Zarate’s tattoos indicate he’s affiliated with the Tren de Aragua gang, which started in Venezuelan prisons and is posing a growing threat in the U.S.
