Vice President Kamala Harris found herself in an awkward situation during a rally in Michigan on Friday when an apparent teleprompter glitch caused her to repeat the same lines multiple times.
Videos of the incident quickly surfaced on X, formerly Twitter, capturing the vice president as she criticized her opponent, Donald Trump, and his running mate JD Vance, over their record on jobs in the manufacturing industry. Harris labeled Trump “one of the biggest losers of manufacturing jobs in American history.”
Midway through her speech, Harris appeared to pause, before repeating the phrase “32 days” multiple times. The vice president was referring to the number of days left until Election Day on November 5.
“Remember this number. 32. Today we got 32 days until the election,” she said.
After a short pause, she added: “So 32 days… 32 days… OK.”
“We got some business to do,” she continued, as she attempted to regain her footing, but her speech didn’t quite make it back on track as she repeated, again, “32 days.”
“And we know we will do it,” she said, before repeating twice that it is “going to be a very tight race until the very end.”
