The Trump camp left a ticket for Tupac at last week's debate, and the rapper's family isn't amused

The Trump campaign is desperate to dunk on Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, but their hilarious and wildly off-base attempts to paint the pair as puppets of the “radical left” doesn’t seem to landing as they’d hoped. As such, our messy president’s men have sought to own the libs in other, more creative ways. Last week, for example, senior adviser Jason Miller said that a ticket was being left for late rapper Tupac Shakur at the debate between Harris and Vice President Mike Pence. Why? Because Harris called him her favorite “living” rapper in a recent interview.

“I can confirm that we have left a ticket for Tupac Shakur, who as we know is Sen. Harris’ favorite rapper alive,” Miller said, clearly very proud of himself. “I don’t know if he shows up. I’m personally more of a Biggie fan if he’s still alive, but we will have a ticket waiting for Mr. Shakur.”

Miller, who we assume loudly pointed out the ticket to everyone in attendance—“Look! A ticket for Tupac! Haha! Because she thinks he’s still alive! He’s not, though! He’s dead! Haha!”—did not, sadly, get the reaction from the Biden campaign he likely desired. He did, however, piss off Mopreme Shakur, the late rapper’s stepbrother, who called it “clearly disrespectful” in an interview with TMZ.
