(UPDATE) WEST PALM BEACH, Florida — Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump falsely accused his Democratic rival Kamala Harris of being an antisemite who plans to allow the murder of newborn babies, in a speech on Friday meant to rally religious supporters that quickly went off the rails.

The United States vice president, who is married to Jewish lawyer Doug Emhoff, has gained ground on Trump in polling since she replaced President Joe Biden on the top of the Democratic ticket just days ago.
