Criticism of Trump and Vance
While addressing the crowd, Harris took the opportunity to criticize former President Donald Trump and his running mate JD Vance, particularly targeting their track record on manufacturing jobs. She labeled Trump “one of the biggest losers of manufacturing jobs in American history,” in a jab aimed at his handling of the sector.
Harris’s Message of Support for the Middle Class
Harris emphasized her middle-class roots during the rally, stating, “I come from the middle class, and I will never forget where I come from.” She reiterated her commitment to fostering economic growth in cities like Flint, pledging to bring more “good union jobs,” including opportunities that do not require a college degree.
The Teleprompter Incident
However, the speech took an unexpected turn when Harris got stuck on the phrase “32 days,” which referred to the time left until the November 5 election day. This moment of confusion led to further speculation about whether her teleprompter had malfunctioned.
Social Media Reactions to Harris’s Gaffe
The brief gaffe quickly drew reactions online. One user tweeted, “Kamala really can’t speak without a teleprompter! You can see the EXACT moment it malfunctions. She can’t speak without a script! This is HUMILIATING for her!” Another commented, “Kamala’s teleprompter briefly went out at the beginning of her speech — you can tell the exact moment it happened.” Some took a more mocking tone, with one user adding, “Omg Kamala’s teleprompter just stopped working and she completely malfunctioned, repeating the same rehearsed lines aimlessly.”
The incident, while brief, provided fuel for critics and became a talking point on social media, overshadowing some of the key messages Harris aimed to deliver at the rally.
