J.D. Vance delivered a rally speech Tuesday inĀ Pennsylvania with a backdrop that made it appear he was campaigning for his arch nemesis, Kamala Harris.

The unfortunate signage appeared to stem from the eventā€™s advance team not accounting for its crowd blocking half of a gigantic poster that sat directly behind Vance, which appeared to read in full, ā€œKAMALA CHAOS.ā€

For those watching on Fox News and other broadcasts, however, the only words clearly visibleā€”in white text on a blue background, in all capsā€”was simply ā€œKamala.ā€

The apparent gaffe quickly went viral on X, where many joked that Harrisā€™ VP choice in Tim Walz, which was announced just prior to Vanceā€™s rally speech, had convinced Trumpā€™s running mate to switch teams.

    Easy mistake to make. The audiences for Vanceā€™s speeches are usually seated and asleep a few minutes in.
