In a rather surprising turn of events back in September, just weeks before the pivotal election, President Joe Biden was spotted wearing a Trump 2024 hat during a 9/11 remembrance event in Pennsylvania. This visual spectacle quickly gained traction online, leading to rampant speculation that Biden’s actions were a calculated move to undermine Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign efforts.
While Harris maintained a public silence on the matter at the time, sources now reveal that she was far from pleased.
It’s essential to remember that during this period, many on the right were vocalizing concerns about Biden’s cognitive abilities, while Democrats and mainstream media continued to assure the public of his mental fitness.
According to FOX News, the fallout from this incident was significant:
Viral video of Biden wearing a Trump hat reportedly left Kamala Harris fuming
According to the new book by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, former Vice President Kamala Harris was incensed after seeing former President Biden put on a Trump 2024 hat during a September 2024 event. The moment went viral on social media, prompting Harris to question her team with exasperation: “What is he doing? This is completely unhelpful. And so unnecessary.”
The video featured Biden at the Shanksville Fire Station, where he accepted the Trump hat from a supporter and placed it atop his own head. The White House later characterized this as a gesture of unity.
The book, titled “Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again,” notes that this incident marked the end of Harris’s participation in public events with Biden leading up to the election.
Indeed, this was a moment for the history books.

No wonder Kamala Harris was upset; Biden’s antics were hardly what the Democratic Party needed at that critical juncture.
