The Grammy-winning artist recently joined Kamala Harris at a rally in Houston, where she spoke in support of the Vice President.



 

Trump highlighted her appearance to his supporters, characterizing the event as nothing more than a "dance party."

"You know, last night my opponent had one of these. And they bussed in people, but you know, they got Beyonce–and you know Beyonce–Beyonce, ugh. They got Beyonce," Trump said to his Michigan audience as the Daily Beast reported. 

He further criticized the Vice President, describing her presence at the Houston rally as "out partying" and "celebrating!"

Trump added, "Joe Biden is asleep. Kamala is at a dance party with Beyonce. This person cannot be a president."

In response, Harris' X campaign account reposted a clip of Trump’s comments, captioning it "An unhinged Trump attacks Beyonce for endorsing Kamala Harris."

"The brink of history. I’m not here as a celebrity. I’m not here as a politician. I’m here as a mother. A mother who cares deeply about the world my children and all of our children live in," Beyonce added.



 

"A world where we have the freedom to control our bodies, a world where we are not divided," she told the audience.

She told the audience, "Your voice has power and magnitude. Your vote is one of the most valuable tools, and we need you. Your freedom is your God-given right, your human right."

However, many fans were reportedly upset that she didn't perform.
