Kamala Harris’s campaign took a low blow this week, seizing on President Trump’s reaction to two medical emergencies during his Pennsylvania town hall as a sign of “mental decline.” But in true legacy media fashion, this manufactured narrative unraveled fast—thanks to ABC News itself.

The scene was anything but a meltdown. Attendees at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center, after two supporters fainted from the packed and heated venue, broke into an impromptu singing of “God Bless America.” Trump, quick on his feet as always, directed the technicians to play “Ave Maria,” creating a powerful moment that lit up the atmosphere.

ABC News, of all outlets, dismantled the Democrats’ narrative. Senior correspondent Terry Moran described the scene as lively and intimate, with Trump mingling with supporters, signing autographs, and enjoying the music of James Brown and Pavarotti.

“Inside that hall, people were having a good time,” said Moran, throwing cold water on the Harris team’s attempt to paint Trump as frail or out of touch. Even as certain social media corners tried to describe the event as odd, those who were actually there saw it as Trump showing his connection with everyday Americans.

And that’s exactly what’s driving Harris and the Democrats insane. They’re watching the polls in Pennsylvania—the all-important Rust Belt state—slip away. Trump is eating into Harris’s base, particularly with Black voters in the Philadelphia area.

Pennsylvania Democrats like Sen. John Fetterman are already waving red flags, seeing how Trump’s message resonates with the low- and middle-income voters who could decide the state’s outcome in November. Meanwhile, Harris is struggling to maintain the energy her campaign desperately needs.

While Harris’s camp tries to spin every moment into a critique, Trump is out there doing what he does best—connecting with voters, energizing the crowd, and proving he’s still the unstoppable force the Democrats fear.

If this Pennsylvania town hall was any indication, it’s not Trump who should be worried about a “decline”—it’s Harris and the Democrats scrambling to catch up.
