Video | Harris vs. Trump: The campaign’s setbacks in one week

Kamala Harris spoke her first words as a candidate for the Democratic nomination last Monday, just one day after Joe Biden announced his withdrawal from the presidential race and gave his support to her. In the week since then, the US vice president has raised record amounts of donations, improved her popularity and significantly reduced Republican Donald Trump’s lead in the polls. Carlota García Encina, a researcher at the Elcano Royal Institute, and Pedro Soriano, a political analyst specialising in the US, assess in this video Harris’s chances of putting together a campaign that will allow her to win the elections on 5 November.
