The latest controversy arises from Pennsylvania, a crucial battleground state. Harris, who has already encountered accusations of &#8220;stolen valor&#8221; and scrutiny over her media presence since becoming the leading Democratic candidate, spent her Sunday in the Keystone State trying to win over undecided voters. However, reports suggest that instead of attracting support, she may have pushed potential voters toward the Republican side.<\/p>\n<p>During her visit to Primanti Bros., a local restaurant in Moon, Pennsylvania, Harris and her running mate Minnesota Governor Tim Walz were met by a group of former President Donald Trump supporters. While this isn&#8217;t surprising given Trump&#8217;s narrow loss in Pennsylvania during the 2020 election (Biden won by just over one percent), reactions intensified when social media users began sharing additional context about their encounter.<\/p>\n<p>One user claimed that the Harris\/Walz campaign had removed patrons from Primanti Bros. at 4 PM to bring in &#8220;staged customers&#8221; for Kamala&#8217;s visit. Another user alleged that not only Trump supporters but also families simply looking to enjoy their meal were asked to leave for what they described as a photo opportunity for &#8220;Can&#8217;t Win&#8221; Kamala.<\/p>\n<p>The video shared included audio of frustrated individuals expressing their anger and accusing the campaign of using paid actors instead of genuine supporters. The Harris campaign has yet to respond publicly regarding these allegations about removing patrons from local restaurants for staged appearances<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2327101,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Harris-Paid-Actors.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[38252,32438,38615,38614],"class_list":["post-2327100","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-campaign-controversy","tag-kamala-harris","tag-paid-actors","tag-restaurant-incident"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Harris-Paid-Actors.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2327100","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2327100"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2327100\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2327101"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2327100"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2327100"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2327100"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
