Latest MAGA outrage accuses Harris of switching accents for Black crowds

The latest outrage from MAGA supporters has taken aim at how Kamala Harris speaks — accusing her of changing her accent depending on who she's addressing.Several Donald Trump supporters claimed the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee made an effort to sound different during addresses in Detroit and Pittsburgh Monday.The Trump War Room, a campaign account, posted side-by-side videos of the two speeches."You better thank a union member for sick leave, you better thank a union member for paid leave, you better thank a union member for vacation time,” Harris is shown saying in both speeches. "Kamala Harris delivers the same exact line in a speech earlier today in Detroit and again in Pittsburgh a few hours later. Let's see if you can spot the difference..." the Trump War Room captioned the videos in the post to X."Kamala Harris speaking in Detroit earlier today vs Pittsburgh a few hours later,” posted conservative media commentator Greg Price, according to Newsweek.”Same speech. Two entirely different accents. She's the fakest human being that has ever lived."ALSO READ: Something broke Trump’s brainNewsweek reported that internet personality Dom Lucre claimed Harris changed her accent when she spoke to Black people. "Kamala Harris has been caught changing her accent for Black people after she delivered the same exact line in a speech earlier today in Detroit with a southern Black accent and again in Pittsburgh with her regular accent a few hours later," he wrote.The accusations follow Trump’s claims during an appearance with the National Association of Black Journalists in July in which he questioned her racial identity.He said she “happened to turn Black” to gain support.“She was Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden she made a turn and she went—she became a Black person,” he said.Speaking about the comment during a CNN interview last week, Harris said: "Same old tired playbook. Next question please."
