Donald Trump’s recent attack on Vice President Kamala Harris has backfired dramatically, igniting a massive backlash on social media that quickly turned against him.

Just one day after President Joe Biden endorsed Kamala Harris for reelection, Trump made headlines by dismissing her as “dumb as a rock.” This remark sparked a trending topic on X.
However, the majority of social media posts did not support Trump’s view. Instead, critics of the former president used the opportunity to highlight some of his most infamous gaffes and controversial statements. They brought up his suggestion of using disinfectants as a treatment for COVID-19, his bizarre claims about windmill cancer, and his decision to look directly at a solar eclipse.
Trump’s comments intended to undermine Harris ended up shining a spotlight on his own past mistakes, creating a wave of criticism that overshadowed his original message.
