Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign trolled former President Donald Trump on his own social media platform, Truth Social, Tuesday.
The campaign’s official Kamala HQ page posted a comparison between two rallies – Trump and Harris – at the same arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
At Trump’s rally, empty seats could be seen in the top layer of the arena. At Harris’ rally, the seats appeared to be fully occupied.
“Harris rally vs. @realDonaldTrump rally,” read the caption on the post, which received more than 800 likes. “Same arena in Philly.”

Harris announced on Tuesday that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz would serve as her running mate in the 2024 presidential election.
At their first joint rally in Philadelphia on Tuesday evening, Walz tore into former President Donald Trump and Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance.
“Violent crime was up under Donald Trump – that’s not even counting the crimes he committed,” said Walz, before criticizing Vance for being “funded by Silicon Valley billionaires” and writing a “bestseller trashing” his own community.
