On Friday, a video of a Kamala Harris supporter screaming at a child in a stroller in Houston trended on social media, prompting strong reactions from viewers, including from the Trump campaign.
The video appears to show a white woman wearing a blue crop top and black shorts attacking a blonde girl in the face as she yells, “I don’t care!” Then a black woman who was standing next to an apparent Harris supporter pulled her away from the child’s face and appeared to accuse her of yelling profanities at the toddler. A man in a blue shirt with a microphone was also seen lifting a child from a stroller after the alleged Harris supporter was chided by other rally attendees.
A voice from the crowd could be heard saying, “Aren’t you ashamed?”
Among the responses from social media accounts was one from the Trump campaign, condemning her behavior as a clear supporter of Harris. (Related: Democratic senator marvels at Trump’s support in key battleground states as “surprising”)
“What kind of lunatic would scream at an innocent child like that?” Trump campaign spokeswoman Caroline Levitt said. I wrote on X (previously known as Twitter). “Apparently he’s a supporter of Kamala Harris.”
