Horror novelist Stephen King wrote in a social media post that wearing a shirt in support of Vice President Kamala Harris has convinced Make America Great Again (MAGA) supporters to vote for her instead of former president Donald Trump in the upcoming presidential election.
King, who is a vocal critic of Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, wrote on X, formerly Twitter, on Thursday afternoon, "Wow! MAGA guys and gals saw me in my Kamala shirt and immediately said, 'Okay, I'll vote for her!'"
MAGA supporters are those who rally behind Trump's slogan, which has become synonymous with his political platform and conservative ideals.
King called the alleged experience "amazing!"
Newsweek reached out to Harris' and Trump's campaign for comment via email on Thursday. Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung previously said that "Stephen King is a dumbass" in a statement to Newsweek.
His comments came nearly an hour and a half after he posted a photo of himself in a black shirt featuring an image of Harris in the style of former President Barack Obama's campaign graphic, with the words "I'm Speaking."
Harris famously used the phrase in 2020 during a vice-presidential debate with then-Vice President Mike Pence, when he interrupted her, and she responded, "Mr. Vice President, I'm speaking." After that debate, shirts like the one King is wearing began appearing on online storefronts.
However, in a more recent instance, she used the phrase while at a campaign rally in Michigan last week after several pro-Palestinian protestors interrupted her rally chanting "Kamala, Kamala you can't hide! We won't vote for genocide."
She called out the protesters, saying, "You know what? If you want Donald Trump to win, then say that. Otherwise, I'm speaking."

The face of a dork...a very wealthy, liberal dork.
Lots of MAGA voters going to vote for the Communists.

What the hell, people? Can’t you recognize sarcasm?
He’s so rich the communism won’t affect him - for a while.
Harris-Walz is scarier than “The Shining.”
The lights are on but nobody is honme. Weirder than Walz/Harris.
Geez. Homne = HOME
What drugs is he on?
“Wow! MAGA guys and gals saw me in my Kamala shirt and immediately said, ‘Okay, I’ll vote for her!’”
And the moron King believed them. The MAGA guys were likely laughing their a$$es off.
Well, he is a fiction writer after all.
How could someone with such a brain be for subjugation of the human spirit? He has written such harbinger tales. Did he not believe in some inspiration? I envy his talent, just not his apparent desire to surrender to darkness.
Tell the creepy man what he wants to hear so he will go away.
I call 🐄💩.
Stephen King is a horrorshow.
He can’t take his dough with him; wonder if he realizes that?
Clearly Kings attempt at sarcasm as he doesn’t know a single Trump supporter
>> Lots of MAGA voters going to vote for the Communists.
I don’t believe that *ANYONE* who truly wants to Make America Great Again and understands what that acronym really means will consciously vote for the San Francisco Whore.
>> What drugs is he on?
You name it, he’s on it.
Isn’t it though?
