J.D. Vance delivered a rally speech Tuesday in Pennsylvania with a backdrop that made it appear he was campaigning for his arch nemesis, Kamala Harris.
The unfortunate signage appeared to stem from the event’s advance team not accounting for its crowd blocking half of a gigantic poster that sat directly behind Vance, which appeared to read in full, “KAMALA CHAOS.”
For those watching on Fox News and other broadcasts, however, the only words clearly visible—in white text on a blue background, in all caps—was simply “Kamala.”
The apparent gaffe quickly went viral on X, where many joked that Harris’ VP choice in Tim Walz, which was announced just prior to Vance’s rally speech, had convinced Trump’s running mate to switch teams.
Easy mistake to make. The audiences for Vance’s speeches are usually seated and asleep a few minutes in.
And they’re all provided with little portable couches to take home
Made me think of the Two Bad Neighbors banner from The Simpsons 😂
Four Seasons Total Landscaping is back on the menu, boys!
That one is in the hall of fame of political blunders.
When are we going to find out that “Dumb” is his middle name?
Maybe the two main parties decided on a merger?
☠️ Kamala Vance 2024 ☠️
^ This will cost him in the South.
Crime of the century right there.
Why can’t this man just leave those poor inanimate objects alone??
Give the weirdo a break! He doesn’t have time to clean it properly because that would cut into the time he needs to put on his eyeliner.
This was a hilarious lemmy post
Omg when he was introduced to America my fist thought was “is this dude wearing makeup?”.
Now that’s the top-tier insult
I did that once, but I was like 9.
Always have a plan B.
Pretty sure JD isn’t a fan of Plan B. He wavers, at best:
“There is something sociopathic about a political movement that tells young women (and men) that it is liberating to murder their own children,” he wrote.
That’s not “wavering.” He’s 100% on board with Handmaid’s Tale – excuse me, “Project 2025.”
I wish his parents had been more liberated 40 years ago…
Abra cadabra man!
You always got the best references, B!
But at least he managed to get off the couch for a bit.
I read it as KAMALA CHADS
I love how conservatives go out of their way to play identity politics by ensuring there’s a token representation of their opponents in the background of every picture. Like, “look one of you is supporting us! So should you!”
DEI supporters?
The ones here look like they’re thinking “wait a minute, all I saw was the ‘Kamala’ part.”
I don’t think I’d be campaigning for Trump with the word “Chaos”…that is really something that calls back to Trump tweeting nuclear threats against North Korea, hiring Mike Pompeo and firing Rex Tillerson in one tweet publicly before informing them, the Covid mishandling (“re-open by Easter 2020”)…on policy folks might just disagree but it’s standard politics. The Chaos of the Trump presidency was uniquely of his own making.
Yeah but they cannot write the word they and their voters want to use so it is hard to come up with alternatives.
200 showed up.
Buncha low energy weirdos.
You know there’s few when they have to call everyone up around the speaker.
Yeah, where is all the talk about rally sizes from the right? Awful quiet.
I want to call this accidental subversion, but I feel like that’s still ascribing far too much credit to Vance. There was never an ounce of thought about it, it was probably a phrase he saw on twitter a few days before and ordered it for the press conference without even the notion of a thought to how it would appear on tv. Subversion, even accidental, requires some kind of consideration. There was none. If the amount of thought he put into this were an ecosystem, it would be a barren wasteland.
Legit… the idea that he’d ever be caught on camera standing in front of a sign that had anyone else’s name besides his own or his running mate’s is just brain dead branding.
They are sending their best. And it’s a sad time. The sadliest.
“Kamala Chaos” was what they were calling it when the Stock Market shit the bed, but had to walk back when the market took back most of the loss the next day (as the market tends to do)
I love it when a lack of planning comes together.
“KAMALA CHAOS” is actually pretty cool sounding. She should steal that and find a fun positive spin for it.
It’s such a weak attempt at an attack, rubbing it in their faces that they have nothing real they can use against her seems smart.
KAMALA causes
CHAOS for republicans
*traitors or failed dictators or wierdo’s
Shouldn’t alienate moderate Republicans or they will vote for Trump.
Dark Brandon X Kamala Chaos
It’s such a weak attempt at an attack
Not as weak as when Trump called her “Lyin’ Kamala” and felt obliged to spell out “Lyin’” (including the apostrophe) so that his kultists would get it. I guess he was worried they’d think he was saying “Lion Kamala”.
I like it, they need to do ads with the monster truck rally voice.
"KAMALA CHAOS! RRRRRRALLY ON MONDAY!
MONDAY!
MONDAY!
WE’LL GIVE YOU THE WHOLE SEAT BUT YOU’LL ONLY
NEED
THE
EEEEEEEEDGGE"
Should be her version of trump derangement syndrome. For all the crazy critiques leveled at her - they’re just exhibiting symptoms of kamala chaos
TDS was always projection from the right. They claimed their opposition was deranged for paying attention while the actual deranged people were frothily defending him against every applicable accusation.
Where “applicable accusation” = “fact”
Oh of course. Never meant to imply otherwise
I want some Kamala chaos tbh. Let’s shake some shit up and see what happens, I’d bet it’s better than we’ve had.
Imagine an animated campaign commercial with a bunch of panicking ragdoll caricatures of Republican ghouls descending into hellfire as a gigantic Kamala Harris rises up in the background taking over the White House, and the words “KAMALA CHAOS” appears on the screen in exactly the same typeface as what’s behind J.D. Vance.
Paid for by the Harris Victory Fund.
Democrats still aren’t brave enough to do this.
Sounds like a dope thing to shout before ll unleashing your anime attack on someone.
After powering up for three whole episodes, of course.
KAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
(ON NEXT WEEK’S EPISODE)
MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA…
I picture her yelling that out before twirling with her arms out and knocking over large traffic cones.
Dark Brandon vibes.
