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.

My favorite was him appointed Wilbur Ross to secretary of commerce. The same Wilbur Ross that bailed out Dementia Don when he famously bankrupted a casino DURING THE CASINO BOOM. If you didn’t know, Wilbur is a coal baron.

I get great entertainment from reading/trolling right wing conspiracy boards. I would point out frequently that Wilbur Ross worked for the Rothschilds, their one world government enemies for years, the ones responsible for 9-11, the ultimate Illuminati Powers That Be, according to Alex Jones and his ilk. By their own rationale, Trump must be a Rothschild pawn.

They are fine with that now, I guess.

I’ve concluded that they can’t be free thinkers. They just do what their told by fox “news”. When you show them facts that contradict what they want to hear, they shut down and start talking about some dudes laptop or someones emails. It’s sad and silly.
