"Simply paid to act"- Netizens react as Cardi B's teleprompter malfunctions while endorsing Kamala Harris for President

On November 01, 2024, Cardi B gave a speech endorsing Kamala Harris in a rally in Wisconsin wherein she appeared at the "When We Vote We Win" concert in Milwaukee. The concert featured performances by GloRilla, Flo Milli, and MC Lyte, among others. While Cardi's speech endorsing Kamala Harris garnered a lot of attention, videos of the rapper's teleprompter being broken went viral as well.

In the video, Cardi B is seen pointing toward the teleprompter and saying "One second guys, one second" not knowing what to do for some time until someone ran onto the stage to give the rapper a phone to read the speech from.

Internet users were quick to react to Cardi's teleprompter malfunction and took to X (formerly Twitter) to express their opinions on the same. Commenting on how the incident could be staged, an X user tweeted:

"Nothing genuine to say. Simply paid to act. Pathetic"

"Cardi B is a product of a fake world where talent doesn't matter. If you can't even talk without a teleprompter, you're just another puppet" an X user stated

"This tells you everything you need to know. These people are reading what somebody else wrote. 🤡 they don’t give a s*it about Kamala they care about what she’s paying them." another X user commented

"It just doesn’t get more fake and cringe than this" an internet user mentioned

"If Trump hired a hacker to attack the Kamala teleprompters, honestly, that would be both hilarious and genius at the same time. I love that Trump and his people don’t need any teleprompters. 😂 TRUMP FTW" another internet user said

Additionally, netizens also made fun of Cardi B for not being able to speak anything in Kamala Harris' favor when her teleprompter malfunctioned:

"Cardi B made herself look like a complete fool here!" an X user stated

"Talk about a major flop! If Cardi B can’t even get her lines straight." another X user mentioned

Additionally, Cardi B shared that she wasn't planning to vote in 2024's presidential elections and stated:

“I wasn’t gonna vote this year, I wasn’t... I did not have faith in any candidates until she joined the race and said the things that I wanted to hear, that I want to see next in this country.”

Moreover, the Punteria rapper complimented Kamala Harris' economic plan against price gouging along with the Democratic party nominee's proposal for down payment assistance for first-time homebuyers. Cardi said that Harris is promising a lot and that she believes her.

During her endorsement of Kamala Harris, Cardi targetted Donald Trump and called him "Donny Dump" further criticizing his claims to protect women's rights. The rapper said that if Trump's definition of protection is ensuring daughters of the country have fewer rights than their mothers, she doesn't want it.
