Kamala Harris knows she can’t win on substance. So what’s her plan for the upcoming debate? To irritate Trump enough that he interrupts her, giving her the perfect opportunity to deliver her infuriatingly smug line, “I’m speaking.” The debate rules have set the mics to be muted, but Kamala is desperate to change that. Why? Because if the mics are unmuted, she can pull out her favorite trick—provoking Trump, waiting for him to cut her off, and then playing the victim with her patronizing “I’m speaking” act. This is what passes for strategy in Kamala’s world.
Kamala’s Tiresome Playbook
We’ve all seen it before. Kamala Harris loves to rely on a few pre-scripted lines that she repeats over and over like a broken record. “Imagine what can be, unburdened by what has been,” she’ll say with a straight face, pretending to offer some deep philosophical insight. But there’s nothing there—it’s just empty words. And when she feels cornered or needs to shut down her opponent? Out comes the most irritating line of all: “I’m speaking.”
We saw her use this tactic in the 2020 debate against Mike Pence. Every time Pence tried to make a point, Kamala interrupted with her condescending “I’m speaking,” delivered with a bobblehead shake and smug smile. The goal? To throw Pence off and claim some sort of moral high ground. Now, she’s hoping to use the same trick on Trump.
The Real Reason Kamala Wants the Mics Unmuted
So why is Kamala so determined to have the mics unmuted? It’s not because she’s looking for a fair and open debate. It’s because she knows that Trump isn’t one to back down. She’s banking on him interrupting her so she can launch into her well-rehearsed “I’m speaking” routine. It’s a setup—an attempt to provoke Trump, get him to cut her off, and then play the victim card in front of the cameras.
Kamala knows that if the mics stay muted, she won’t have the chance to pull this stunt. If Trump can’t respond, she loses the opportunity to provoke him. But with live, unmuted mics, she can bait him into doing exactly what she wants: cutting her off mid-sentence so she can act like she’s been wronged.
Kamala’s Desperation Is Showing
Kamala is terrified of facing a real debate where ideas matter. She knows she can’t compete with Trump on facts or policy, so she needs this trick to stay in the game. Her whole strategy is built around getting under Trump’s skin just enough to make him lash out. Then, like clockwork, she’ll drop her “I’m speaking” line, shake her head in that insufferable way, and wait for the media to call her a “strong woman” for standing up to Trump.
But here’s the truth: Kamala isn’t strong. She’s not tough. She’s not even likable. Her approval ratings are in the gutter because the American people can see through her act. They’re tired of her fake toughness, tired of her empty rhetoric, and tired of her endless pandering.
The Media Will Be Ready to Crown Her
Let’s be real: the media will be chomping at the bit to declare Kamala the winner of this debate, no matter what actually happens. They’ll spin her “I’m speaking” interruptions as some kind of feminist victory, even if she’s just using it to cover up the fact that she has no real answers. We saw this play out during the 2020 debate, and you can bet it’ll happen again.
But the American people are smarter than that. They know that repeating the same tired lines over and over doesn’t make Kamala a capable leader. It just makes her a scripted, rehearsed, and out-of-touch politician who relies on cheap tricks to score points.
What Happens When Kamala Can’t Use Her Tricks?
This debate could be a turning point for Kamala Harris, but only if the mics stay muted. Without the ability to provoke Trump and then play the victim, Kamala will have to rely on actual policy arguments—and we all know how that will go. Her lack of substance will be exposed, and her inability to offer real solutions to America’s problems will be on full display.
If she doesn’t get her way, she’ll have to face Trump head-on without her usual bag of tricks. And that’s the real reason she’s fighting to unmute the mics—because without her ability to shout over her opponent, she’s got nothing.
Final Thoughts
Kamala Harris is banking on the same old playbook—irritate her opponent, provoke an interruption, and then whip out her condescending “I’m speaking” routine. But the American people are tired of it. We don’t need another politician who relies on cheap tricks and hollow rhetoric. We need someone who can actually lead. And Kamala Harris has shown time and time again that she’s not that person.
It’s time to call her out for what she is: an unlikable, ineffective politician who’s out of her depth.
