‘Does That Sound Familiar?’: Trump Uses Kamala Harris’ Own Line Against Her
During a recent debate hosted by ABC News in Philadelphia, former President Donald Trump borrowed a phrase from Vice President Kamala Harris, who had previously used it during her vice presidential debate in 2020. The exchange occurred when Trump, while responding to a question, dismissed Harris’s attempt to interject by saying, “I’m talking now. Does that sound familiar?” This line echoed Harris’s earlier assertion of “I’m speaking!” aimed at then-Vice President Mike Pence.
The incident quickly gained traction on social media, with many viewers praising Trump’s response and suggesting that it detracted from Harris’s performance in the debate. Some commentators noted that Trump appeared to dominate the debate, referring to it as his best yet, while others highlighted his skill in leveraging the moment to outmaneuver Harris. The public reaction showcased the ongoing competitive dynamic between the two candidates.
Former President Donald Trump stole a snarky one-liner from Vice President Kamala Harris during Tuesday night’s debate.
The ABC News-hosted Philadelphia debate was the first between the two candidates.
According to the New York Post, up until debate night, Harris’s campaign had been lobbying for “hot mics,” i.e. for the candidates’ microphones to remain on even when it’s not their turn to speak.
Many believed this was because Harris wanted to sneak in the one-liner that she had previously used during her 2020 campaign with President Joe Biden.
The vice president gained “sympathetic coverage” after telling then-Vice President Mike Pence “I’m speaking!” during a vice presidential debate.
During Tuesday’s debate, while Trump was in the middle of answering a question, Harris attempted to interject.
In response, Trump hit back with a rather “familiar” line.
