Based on comments he made about failed former president and convicted felon Donald Trump, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro may have just rocketed to the top of the list to be Kamala Harris’s choice as running mate.
Shapiro was speaking at a Harris rally on Monday, and he asked attendees, “You ever see this guy? Like when he’s on stage?”
“He kind of meanders over,” Shapiro continued, copying Trump’s gait and raised arms. “And he goes over to the flag and and he like hugs the flag — I mean I love the flag — but it’s a weird thing he does, right?!”
The crowd roared with laughter, which led Shapiro to add, “But while … while he’s hugging the flag you know what he’s doing? He’s ripping away our freedoms! That’s what he’s all about. Because here’s what I know. It’s not freedom to tell our children what books they’re allowed to read. That’s not freedom. It is not freedom to tell people they can go to work but they can’t join a union. That’s not freedom! It is not freedom to tell women what they’re allowed to do with their bodies. That’s not freedom!”
Others were also impressed with Shapiro’s spot-on impression of Trump.
