Shane’s mother Linda spoke for Donald Trump at the RNC. Kamala Harris, the presumptive Democratic nominee, addressed a rally in swing state Georgia on Tuesday. As she spoke in Atlanta, joined by stars like Megan Thee Stallion and Quavo, some users suggested that she spoke in a ‘fake Southern accent.’
A video is being shared on social media of Harris’ speech from the rally, where she says: “You all helped us win in 2020 and we won’t do it again in 2024.” Some users called her accent ‘bizarre’ and accused her of code-switching.

It has been noted that Harris taunted former President Donald Trump to meet her on a debate stage ahead of the November election while she campaigned in Atlanta on Tuesday night.
“He won’t debate, but he and his running mate sure seem to have a lot to say about me,” Harris said.
“Well, Donald, I do hope you’ll reconsider to meet me on the debate stage because, as the saying goes, if you got something to say, say it to my face.”
It has been noted that a debate between Trump and Biden was planned for September 10 before the president dropped out of the race. On Monday, Trump told Fox News he wanted to debate but that he could also “make a case for not doing it.”
Harris has portrayed herself as the underdog in the race against Trump but said the “momentum in this race is shifting and there are signs that Donald Trump is feeling it.”
It’s Harris’ first visit to Georgia since President Biden ended his reelection campaign. Her campaign is trying to keep the battleground state in play. Harris, the presumptive Democratic nominee, noted the importance of the state moments into her speech.
“I am very clear: The path to the White House runs right through this state,” Harris said. “You all helped us win in 2020 and we are going to do it again in 2024.”
Biden very narrowly won the state against former President Donald Trump four years ago and it was a rare victory in a state that hadn’t backed a Democrat for president in nearly three decades. It was Biden’s disastrous debate performance in Atlanta against Trump in June that ultimately led to his withdrawal from the race.
Harris also laid out some priorities for her potential administration, including bringing back a bipartisan border bill that Trump lobbied Republican members of Congress to sink, taking on price gouging, and capping “unfair rent increases” and prescription drug costs. Her mention of the border security bill was aimed at blunting a criticism increasingly leveled at her by Republicans.
