Kamala Harris Interrupts Donald Trump’s Debate With Laughter

The Kamala Harris-Donald Trump presidential debate, which took place on Tuesday, September 10, drew various reactions from both the debaters as well as the audience. In one such moment, Vice President and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris seemingly interrupted Donald Trump’s claims by laughing, sparking an interesting response from the former president. Shortly after, Trump reiterated one of Harris’ most iconic lines from the 2020 debate and gave his own spin to it, which quickly went viral on social media.

On September 10, Vice President Kamala Harris shared the debate stage with former president and Republican nominee Donald Trump. The two then exchanged their views on multiple issues, including the present economy, immigration and border, and abortion rights. The 90-minute debate saw many highlights, but one particularly went viral, sending the audience on a nostalgic trip.

Trump spoke about several policies that Harris “gave up” on when the latter interrupted his speech with laughter via a muted microphone. In response to the interruption, Donald Trump used Harris’ words against her with a sarcastic spin on it. He said, “I’m talking now, if you don’t mind. Please. Does that sound familiar?”

Notably, the former president was referring to Harris’ line during a 2020 debate between her and then-Vice President Mike Pence. Throughout the debate, Harris confronted Pence’s interruptions and could be heard saying, “Mr. Vice President, I’m speaking.” However, during the 2024 presidential debate, Trump flipped the “I’m speaking” line back at his opposition.

The line essentially became viral in 2020, leading to the slogan being used in merchandise. The 2024 debate also went viral for Harris’ facial expressions as she countered Trump on various points, with several gestures even becoming memes on X (formerly Twitter).

The 2024 presidential election is scheduled to be held on November 5.
