WATCH: Backed by GOP supporters, Harris speaks from site where Washington crossed the Delaware

Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris campaigned Wednesday in pivotal Pennsylvania for the second time this week, this time with a coalition of Republicans who are backing her over their party’s nominee, Donald Trump.

Trump, meanwhile, continues his effort to win over Hispanic voters during an event on the nation’s largest Spanish-language television network.
As the race entered its final three weeks, Harris was campaigning in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, a vote-rich stretch of suburban Philadelphia where Democrats have held a narrow advantage in recent presidential elections.
Harris spoke alongside a group of Republican supporters in historic Washington Crossing, where Gen. George Washington launched his forces across the Delaware River in a turning point of the Revolutionary War.
Among who took the stage was former Congressman Adam Kinzinger, who said it’s time to put “country over party.” Kinzinger said Trump has abandoned Republican values and is a “whiny, weak, tiny man who is scared to death.”
Pennsylvania farmers Bob and Kristina Lange also spoke, describing themselves as lifetime Republicans who’ve had enough. Kristina Lange said “it’s time to turn the page on Trump and on his chaos and the way he divides us.”
The Democratic nominee then took the podium. Harris said the Constitution is meant to guarantee a peaceful transfer of power, and “is not a relic from our past.” She said the Constitution “determines whether we are a country where the people can speak freely, and even criticize the president, without fear of being thrown in jail.”

Trump and Harris campaigned in Pennsylvania Monday, when the Republican was in nearby Oaks while Harris was on the opposite end of the state in Erie County, among Pennsylvania’s most closely divided counties over the past two presidential contests.
Harris’ simplest path toward the 270-vote winning threshold in the Electoral College is by carrying a trio of northern battleground states, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Harris campaigned in Detroit Tuesday and planned to campaign in three Wisconsin cities Thursday.
As part of the series of national interviews Harris has been doing, she also planned to sit for an interview on Fox News on Wednesday.
Trump, too, was scheduled to participate in a widely televised event, a town hall-style event on Univision, as part of his recently stepped up outreach to Hispanic voters. On Saturday, Trump participated in a Las Vegas campaign event geared toward Latino business owners in swing-state Nevada.
The Univision event, to be recorded in Miami, and scheduled to air at 10 p.m., comes as immigration has played a dual and at time contradictory role in Trump’s campaign. Trump has simultaneously counted on increased support from Latinos in his effort to return to the White House even as he has centered his campaign on a darker view of immigration, suggesting migrants are “poisoning the blood” of the nation and that the recent influx at the U.S.-Mexico border amounts to an “invasion.”
Harris participated in a Univision town hall in Las Vegas last week.
