Former President Donald Trump is facing backlash after remarks made about supporters of Vice President Kamala Harris during a recent rally in Wisconsin. The speech, which featured Trump battling a fly and criticizing his own campaign team, included a concerning comment that shocked political observers.
At the rally, Trump posed a rhetorical question to attendees: “Is there anybody here who’s going to vote for lyin’ Kamala?” He quickly added, “Actually, I should say don’t raise your hand; it would be very dangerous. We don’t want to see anybody get hurt. Please don’t raise your hand.”
The Harris campaign promptly shared the clip on social media, highlighting Trump’s warning that identifying as a Harris voter could lead to harm.
The response online was immediate, with many users voicing their support for Harris in defiance.
