Donald Trump took aim at Vice President Kamala Harris on Saturday night during a rally in Minnesota, saying he chose as president to try to stop Black Lives Matter rioters in 2020 while Harris used her social media to raise money for a fund that bailed them out.

“I sent in the National Guard to save Minneapolis, while Kamala Harris sided with arsonists and rioters and raised money to bail out the criminals,” Trump told a raucous crowd in St. Cloud, Minn.

Then-Sen. Harris used her social media in 2020 while running for vice president to urge her supporters to donate to the Minnesota Freedom Fund, which provided bail money to BLM rioters as well as other violent criminals.

“If you’re able to, chip in now to the @MNFreedomFund to help post bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota,” Harris posted in June 2020 on the platform then known as Twitter.

The link and the associated fundraising page remain active four years later.

Trump’s mention of the BLM bail fund is part of a larger effort to portray his likely fall opponent as a far-left activist out of touch with every day Americans.

“Now we have a new candidate to defeat; the most incompetent, unpopular, and far-left Vice President in American history,” he told the crowd.
