The Donald Trump campaign is not letting go of Kamala Harris’ gaffe about her favorite “living” rapper.
Trump team decided to troll Harris by supposedly leaving a vice presidential debate ticket available last Wednesday night for Tupac Shakur. Obviously, the rapper didn’t show up since he passed away in 1996.
“We have left a ticket for Tupac Shakur,” Trump’s senior campaign adviser Jason Miller told reporters.
Harris mistakenly called him her favorite living rapper last month, Amber Athey reported for The Spectator.
During an interview at the NAACP’s virtual convention, CNN commentator Angela Rye asked Harris, “Best rapper alive?” Harris then named Tupac, but Rye reminded her that he died. “Not alive. I know, I keep doing that,” Harris chuckled. She attempted to recover from her gaffe but never got around to naming another rapper.
(This is not a joke and and was confirmed by Trump campaign senior adviser @JasonMillerinDC on a press call)

Kamala Harris asked, who’s the best rapper alive?

She answers @2PAC
Then says “Not alive, I know, I keep doing that.”
Tries to think of another living rapper. “There’s some I would not mention right now because they should stay in their lane.” pic.twitter.com/MZJ5FZC4qP
I asked the Trump campaign who Vice President Mike Pence is bringing to tonight's debate.

A spokesperson responded: "Tupac."
Happy Wednesday, everybody.
