Kamala Harris officially accepted her nomination for president Thursday evening at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
As Harris delivered a moving 38-minute speech, Trump fired off more than 50 messages on his social media forum, which was populated mainly by his diehard supporters.
Trump teased that he would be on Truth Social to “fact-check” his opponent — but instead he only repeated previous attacks on Harris.
Trump posted, without elaborating: “Is she talking about me?”
Some of his other messages were based on broader themes that he and the 59-year-old Harris have spoken back and forth about — including abortion rights and border security.

Harris brought her husband Doug Emhoff, running mate Tim Walz and Walz’s wife Gwen to the DNC.
On abortion rights, he said, “Everyone, Democrats, Republicans, liberals and conservatives, wanted to END Roe v. Wade and bring it back to the United States.”
For the most part, President Trump appeared to be following Harris’ speech and responding in real time.
But there was one theme he returned to more than others — the fact that Harris has had three years as vice president to implement the policies her campaign is now promoting.

Trump, 78, wrote: “The Border Bill is one of the worst ever written, would have allowed millions of people into our country, and it’s just a political ploy on her part!
“It legalizes illegal immigration and is a TOTAL DISASTER, WEAK AND INEFFECTIVE! She doesn’t need a bill. As president, Crooked Joe and her could have just said, ‘CLOSE THE BORDER!’ like I did – I didn’t have an account, I didn’t need an account.
“The Border Patrol respected me, they did their job. We had the most secure border in history!”

He said in another post: “She’s done nothing but talk for three and a half years and that’s what she’s doing tonight, complaining about everything but doing nothing! She should leave the speech right now, go to Washington, DC, the Border, allow fracking in Pennsylvania and other places, and start doing things she’s complaining about that haven’t been done.”
Trump wrote in yet another: “No specific programs, ALL TALK, NO ACTION – Why didn’t she do it three and a half years ago?”

While Trump was busy with Truth Social, other audience members went to X to respond to his attacks.
One fan wrote: “Trump is going crazy on Truth Social tonight. He is in complete panic, knowing he is going to lose to a black woman and possibly spend the rest of his life in prison. “
Another tweeted: “Trump’s Truth Social feed rivals all the memorable tweetstorms of the past. Defcon posts on 4 levels here.”
