Original Note:
DELIBERATELY MISLEADING: this is a "stump speech", where a politician gives the same speech on the campaign trail. It's a mainstay of basic American politics since the early 1800s*. "Caught red-handed" falsely implies some attempt by Harris to conceal where none exists. https://americanhistory.si.edu/explore/exhibitions/american-presidency/online/communicating-presidency/president-communicates/stump-speeches https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/stump-speech *https://tnmuseum.org/junior-curators/posts/stump-speaking-at-knoxville
