Kamala Booed After Beyoncé Bait-N-Switch
Modernity News ^ | 10/26/2024 | Steve Watson

The Kamala Harris rally in Houston last night was billed as a Beyoncé concert. Everyone, including the media, believed the singer would perform after the announcement was made earlier in the week, but all she did was walk out and make a barely audible speech for a few minutes. Then the rally descended into complete chaos.

This is the extent of her appearance:

Firstly, you can’t hear a word she’s saying.

What’s so difficult about taking a direct feed from the microphones? It seems some outlets got the feed but others didn’t. What a mess.

Secondly, 30,000 people showed up and waited in line because they believed it was a Beyoncé concert.

A million people tried to get tickets because they thought it was a Beyoncé concert.

So when it wasn’t, people were pissed.

The rally then descended into absolute chaos as some people left, while others kicked up a fuss about Beyonce not singing.

The media spun this as Trump supporters ‘protesting’, and Harris repeated a line about showing them the way to the “smaller rally down the road,” referring to Trump’s event.

Boos and yelling were heard at the rally as Harris failed to calm down the rowdy crowd.

But the fact is, they weren’t Trump supporters, they were just pissed off that they’d been misled.

My friend went to the Kamala Harris rally with Beyoncé and as soon she Beyonce left people started walking out

Perhaps the most hilarious aspect of this was that the performance they actually got was 91 year old Willie Nelson.

They came for Beyoncé and this is what Harris gave them 🤣https://t.co/iVzu0NlNLs — WestCoast_Life (@westcoast_lyfe) October 26, 2024

They haven’t learned their lesson from last time either.

Fans of pop star Beyoncé are annoyed that a rumour was spread early in the day that she would be a surprise guest at the finale of the DNC, with some fans accusing the Democrats of being “f***ing liars.” https://t.co/57bqvylPF1 — m o d e r n i t y (@ModernityNews) August 23, 2024

I wonder if any of them will change their vote over this?

If you piss off people like this, they are likely to skip the vote, or even vote for your opponent, just to get even with you!
I would say, this will cost Kamala a lot of votes.

Like everything Kamala, the “concert” was a fraud.

I was wondering the same thing. I hope voters remember this come election day.

If that isn't a metaphor for all of Kammy's campaign I don't know what could be more accurate. When you offer somebody free stuff and don't deliver, sooner or later they absolutely will turn on you. Now, about those reparations...

Pretty much epitomizes the entire Democrat party campaign in 2024:

Bait and switch.

Wait, is is possible to even expect less?

Well, in the campaign’s and Kamala’s mind, Kamala > Beyonce. Everything is good, even better than promised.

Could be deliberate sabotage by Beyonce?

Bay once really meant whatever she said in those magical 2 minutes. Even if no one heard them.

Did Willie get the comrade high?

Beyoncé apparently asked for lots of money, which the campaign did not want to spend.
But, Kamala, for all of her sinking in the pools, still has a lot of money!
Why did they not gave her what she wanted?
I speculate, that they do know that they are not going to win in Texas, but they wanted to show Kamala, at least once, surrounded by big crowds, just for the optics of it.
And, they choose Huston, as not hurt her in some battleground state.
Those attendees were really taken for a ride!

Not voting for The New Hillary is 1/2 a vote for Trump.

Another kamala “rally” that bombed—in this case due to Beyoncé’s disappointing the rally-goers!

‘”What can be, unburdened by what has been.” Baloney!

They are beginning to see the light.

Well it doesn’t happen enough, but sometimes the designs of wicked people fall to dust. Note the Trump bombshells seem to have died in the vine. Harris has had this incredible bad streak for the last couple week. Now this. Couldn’t happen to a nicer gal
