During a campaign rally in Las Vegas on Friday, former President Donald Trump made a bizarre claim that Kamala Harris had received questions prior to the week’s debate.
Trump stated, āDid she get the questions? Ya think? So I hear she got the questions and I also heard she got something in the ear, a little something in the ear. āNo, Kamala, do this. Say it this way, Kamala. OK, be quiet, too many people watching,āā as he speculated about someone communicating with Harris through an earpiece.
These remarks followed Trump’s appearance on āFox & Friendsā where he hinted at this baseless claim just days earlier.
When contacted by JS for comment on the claim, the Trump campaign was not immediately available.
The conspiracy theory about Harris using an earpiece was also promoted by conservative commentator Laura Loomer, who recently faced criticism for her involvement in a 9/11 memorial event with Trump.
On Wednesday, Loomer tweeted, āInteresting choice of earrings tonight, @KamalaHarrisā¦ā along with a photo of Harris at the debate and a screenshot of a story about āaudio earrings.ā
