The Harris campaign decided to take a stroll down memory lane, revisiting the 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. They clumsily attempted to paint former President Donald Trump with their preferred brush, claiming that he referred to “very fine people” on both sides regarding those protests. This narrative is about as accurate as claiming the sky is green during a hurricane.
In their latest attempt to twist history, Kamala HQ took to X to remind everyone of a tragic event and link it directly to Trump. However, their enthusiastic recollection conveniently ignores the facts. Contrary to the caricature they try to paint, Trump made it clear he was referencing peaceful protesters who opposed the removal of the Robert E. Lee statue, not the neo-Nazis or white supremacists who crashed that party.
LMFAO 🤣 🤣
this liberal propaganda outlet @MeidasTouch made up a story about the trump campaign to glorify kamala harris

Fact-checking website Snopes, which is not exactly a bastion of conservative thought, has even tackled this faux pas head-on, clarifying that Trump was distinctly NOT referring to the skinheads when he mentioned “very fine people.” It’s almost a comedy routine at this point—watching the left keep repeating a debunked mantra as if saying it louder will somehow make it true.
Trump’s campaign hit back at Harris’s post with a well-aimed shot, accusing her of treating voters like they’re dense enough to believe a narrative that has been scrutinized and found lacking in any foundation. After all, if repetition were the key to truth, the Democrats would already be the reigning champions.
This little dance by the Harris campaign exemplifies the ongoing struggle on the left: how to grasp at straws and maintain a narrative that’s further away from reality than a Democrat’s chances in a Southern state. Injuries aside, it appears the goal here is less about truth and more about keeping their supporters in a frothy, emotional frenzy—because who needs facts when you can throw shade and project historical inaccuracies? It’s a strategy as old as politics itself: if you can’t win on issues, keep shouting stale talking points until everyone forgets what actually happened.
