Kamala Harris borrowed a line from Quavo to go after Donald Trump in response to his criticism of President Joe Biden’s southern border policies.
The Vice President called out Trump at a campaign rally at the Georgia State Convocation Center on Tuesday (July 30).She highlighted her record as California Attorney General before turning the tables on her political rival with a line from the 2018 Migos hit, “Walk It, Talk It.”
“I went after transnational gangs, drug cartels and human traffickers that came into our country illegally,” Harris stated. “I prosecuted them in case after case, and I won.
“Donald Trump, on the other hand, has been talking a big game about securing our border, but he does not walk the walk,” Harris added. “Or as my friend Quavo would say, he does not walk it like he talks it.”

Later in her address, Kamala Harris challenged Donald Trump to a debate after he said he wanted to wait until after the Democratic National Convention.
“Donald, I do hope you’ll reconsider to meet me on the debate stage. Because, as the saying goes, if you got something to say, say it to my face,” she said before the crowd exploded.

Meanwhile, Quavo delivered an impassioned opening speech at the rally, affirming his commitment to ending gun violence.
“One thing I learned about working with Vice President Harris is she always stands on business,” Quavo declared. “From inviting me to the White House last year to discuss these solutions to passing the biggest gun safety laws today.”
He continued, “So, it’s only right in the birthplace of the culture is also the same place to launch the first African-American woman to run for president.”
Quavo concluded with a call to action: “So if you never voted before, make sure you get out and vote right now ’cause it’s the real one.”
