Former President Donald Trump mocked Vice President Kamala Harris’ staged endorsement call from Barack and Michelle Obama at his campaign rally on Wednesday.
Speaking to a crowd of thousands in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, Trump said the “radical Left Democratic Party bosses have installed a puppet candidate to fight only for themselves.”
“Kamala Harris got zero votes,” Trump said. “She’s totally scripted, owned, and controlled by the donors and the power brokers who created her campaign. Who rip off our government and make billions and billions of dollars.”
“Unlike her, I cannot be bought and I cannot be controlled. I have no interest in that,” he added.
“Because everything about Kamala Harris’ roll out, it’s phony and it’s fake,” Trump continued. “Did you see when President Obama and Michelle called, ‘Hello, hello, yes, yes, who is this? Oh, this is Michelle and Barack. Oh, so surprised to hear. They got four cameras in front.”
Trump continued mocking Harris, acting surprised to hear from the Obamas, noting that the call was on speaker phone.
“‘Oh, I’m so surprised,’” the former president said, imitating Harris’ call. “‘Listen, we just wanted to congratulate you on destroying Joe Biden. I mean, on winning the….”
Trump went on to discuss Harris’ failure as the border czar, allowing the U.S. to be flooded with illegal immigrants.
He also discussed the Biden-Harris administration’s failure to keep Americans safe, control inflation, and improve the economy.
It was Trump’s first time in Pennsylvania since Thomas Mattew Crooks attempted to assassinate the former president at a rally in Butler on July 13. Crooks shot Trump in his right ear, killed one of Trump’s supporters, and injured two other attendees.
