JD Vance roasted for embarrassing rally gaffe where he appeared to campaign for Harris

JD Vance is being roasted online over an embarrassing gaffe at a rally on Tuesday, where he appeared to be campaigning for Democratic rival Kamala Harris.

Donald Trump’s running mate appeared on stage at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to deliver a speech in front of national news cameras and Republican supporters.

Behind him was a stage backdrop reading: “KAMALA CHAOS.”

But Vance’s attempt to trash the Democratic presidential candidate spectacularly failed, as the backdrop was partially covered by rallygoers leaving only the name “KAMALA” visible.

The image quickly went viral on social media, with critics roasting Vance for unwittingly appearing to campaign for his opposition.

“Those people look extremely unhappy”, wrote one X user. “Based on the sign, I guess they were expecting Kamala.”

Making reference to a rally in Atlanta, Georgia on Sunday, another commented: “So first he talked in front of ‘You’re fired’ signs. And now he speaks in front of a sign advertising his opponent.”

The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) also mocked Vance in a post that racked up thousands of likes and reposts.

“Here’s why you should hire union stagehands and stage designers: (They did not),” the union wrote.

Even Fox News didn’t hold back, with host Jessica Taylor bringing up the viral moment when discussing the Trump-Vance campaign’s apparent confidence in beating the Democrats in November.

“Yeah they’re definitely projecting that. I saw JD Vance this morning in front of a huge Kamala sign where you couldn’t even read the ‘chaos’ so everything is going really well for that side of the aisle,” she quipped.

Trump’s choice of VP pick has already raised eyebrows in recent weeks.
