President-elect Donald Trump has offered to help pay off the $20 million campaign debt of Vice President Kamala Harris and the Democratic National Committee (DNC). Trump stated that this gesture is aimed at fostering unity in a politically divided nation. He emphasized the importance of unity and expressed concern that the Harris campaign and the DNC are under financial strain from vendors and other creditors. Trump's offer, which involves using his leftover campaign funds and potentially GOP donor money, marks an unprecedented move in U.S. politics where an opponent extends financial support to a rival party. This initiative is seen as a significant step toward bridging partisan divides and promoting national cohesion. Trump's magnanimous gesture follows Harris's campaign spending of $1000 million during the election.
