Posted • October 26, 2024: The Harris campaign's event in Houston had been billed as her largest event to date, and there was a reason they could say that. The media called it a "Harris rally" but as it turns out much of the crowd showed up to see and hear Beyoncé. This is part of the Harris-Walz campaign's tone-deaf strategy of bringing in super-rich celebs to tell everybody the economy is great and will get better if the current VP gets a promotion. It couldn't have been more obvious that the reason tens of thousands of people turned out was because of the promise of a Beyoncé performance: Why did Kamala Harris, Ian Sams, NBC News, HuffPost, USA Today, Vanity Fair, and countless others tell us we were getting a performance last night in Houston? What went wrong? https://x.com/JasonMillerinDC/status/1850145193732792594 -- Next came something that couldn't have been a more appropriate metaphor for the entire Harris campaign. Beyoncé spoke briefly, endorsing Harris, and then… left.

Beyoncé really showed up at the rally only to speak for a few seconds and not perform, leaving Kamala Harris to be *booed* by her fans. Watching this campaign operate is like watching a naked man smear himself in honey and run through a bear cage. -- Beyoncé endorses Kamala Harris at Houston rally, but doesn't perform any songs, leaving some attendees frustrated and feeling duped. If they're backing Harris they've been "duped" from the start, but hopefully some of them now realize it. The Harris campaign lied to everyone that there was going to be a Beyoncé concert last night. The media thought that’s what they’d see. But Beyoncé didn’t sing. Harris isn’t enough of a draw so they had to actually lie about the program. Pretty unbelievable. Many in the crowd were clearly not happy when they realized they'd been basically tricked into showing up. So … Democrats used Beyoncé as a draw for Kamala’s rally. But she didn’t perform? No wonder the crowd booed. lol

Can you feel the "joy" as the crowd realized Beyonce had given Harris a brief endorsement and then left without performing? Watch and listen: The Beyonce concert featuring Kamala is off to a great start. 😂🤣 The campaign really should have dug deep into their fundraising war chest to pay Beyonce to sing, because it would have been a much better boost than letting the candidate speak… or try to speak: The Beyonce concert featuring Kamala has devolved into a total and complete disaster in which Kamala is barely audible on the feed. Humiliating! https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1850002860013969409/pu/vid/avc1/1280x720/NESFqHMiMND2CjMo.mp4 (…)
