In the video, as Harris boarded her jet, she waved to the cameras and then went inside. She had a wired earplug attached to her phone. “If you’re going to pretend that you’re on your phone in order to avoid answering questions from the press, you should probably do a little bit better on an acting job than holding your phone up to your ear while wearing wired headphones,” Trump War Room posted.
The Trump campaign linked Kamala Harr’s action of ‘pretending to be on the phone’ with Tim Walz walking away on Sunday when he was asked to comment on the hostages found dead in Gaza.
“Yesterday: Tim Walz runs away from a question about dead hostages found in Gaza.
Today: Kamala pulls the old “I’m on my phone” trick to avoid the press.
If it’s too difficult for you to answer questions, you probably shouldn’t be running the country,” Trump War Room posted.
Tim Walz was at the Minnesota State Fair in his home state on Sunday as protests erupted over the death of six hostages including one American whose parents spoke at the recent Democratic National Convention. “What’s your reaction to the six hostages being found dead in Gaza?” Walz was asked. “All right, thanks everybody,” Walz said as he walked away. Right before the hostage question, however, Walz was answering. It was not clear whether Walz could not hear the question like it’s not known in today’s video whether Kamala Harris was actually on the phone.
Biden-Harris administration came under fire for the hostage crisis as they headed into the situation room. Biden blamed Israel PM Benjamin Netanyahu for not doing enough to push for a hostage deal.
