Kamala Harris raised concerns about Donald Trump’s mental state after his latest town hall in Oaks, Pennsylvania, devolved into an unexpected music session. “Hope he’s okay,” Harris posted on X, signaling her campaign’s shift to targeting Trump’s health and age with just three weeks until the election.
During the town hall, moderated by South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, Trump mistakenly referred to the election date as January 5. The event took a peculiar turn when two audience members required medical assistance, prompting Trump to joke about audience members fainting. He then suggested, “Let’s just listen to music. Let’s make it into a music. Who the hell wants to hear questions, right?”

For over 30 minutes, a playlist played while Trump stood on stage, exhibiting a gradual shift from jerky dance moves to a more relaxed sway. Following the event, Harris’s campaign released a post highlighting Trump’s apparent confusion and calling attention to the early departures of audience members.
In response, Trump’s campaign spokesman, Steven Cheung, claimed that something “very special” happened during the event. Meanwhile, some supporters defended Trump, stating that it was his idea to play music.
Trump retaliated on his Truth Social platform, asserting he is “far healthier” than several former presidents, including Harris. He criticized her for questioning his health, stating, “Kamala’s Medical Report is really bad,” and claimed his own health report is “perfect.”
Despite being the oldest presidential candidate after Joe Biden exited the race, Trump has not released a recent comprehensive health report. In contrast, Harris, who turns 60 this Sunday, released a medical evaluation affirming her “excellent health” and readiness for the presidency.
