NEW: Harris Campaign’s Plan To Troll Trump At Alabama-Georgia Game Fails Miserably

After former President Donald Trump announced that he would be attending the primetime Alabama-Georgia game in Tuscaloosa, the Harris Campaign told reporters that they planned on trolling their rival during the game. The plan was never able to get off the ground, however, forcing the campaign to scrap it entirely.

Several mainstream media outlets and White House press pool members reported that Harris was planning on flying an ad over the game. The ad, which was to come in the form of a banner carried by a small plane, was supposed to accuse Trump of “punting” on a second presidential debate.

“When Trump is at tonight’s Alabama-Georgia game, the Harris campaign has arranged to have a small plane fly over Tuscaloosa with a banner declaring, ‘Trump’s Punting on 2nd Debate,'” CNN’s Kaitlan Collins reported. Trump has refused to do another debate with Harris, pointing to her decision to skip a September debate that was supposed to be hosted by Fox News.

The former president believes he won the first encounter with Harris — despite help from biased moderators — and has also pointed to the fact that early voting is already underway.

Multiple outlets reported on the Harris Campaign’s planned ad, generating excitement among left-wing social media users and pundits.

The plan backfired spectacularly, however, as the Harris Campaign told the New York Times that it was scrapped due to poor  weather conditions.

In addition, the campaign planned to air a national ad aimed at convincing Trump to agree to another debate. “Winners never back down from a challenge,” the ad’s narrator says. “Champions know it’s any time, any place. But losers, they whine and waffle and take their ball home.”
