Kamala Harris Interview With Muslim Influencer Canceled Over Bacon Remarks
Vice President Harris's interview with Kareem Rahma was scrapped after a controversial discussion on bacon, a topic off-limits to Muslims.
- The interview was intended to feature a discussion on airplane etiquette, but Harris unexpectedly shifted the topic to bacon.
- Kareem Rahma, a Muslim influencer, chose not to air the interview due to the inappropriate topic and its potential to offend his audience.
- Rahma had hoped to address the Israel-Hamas conflict, but Harris's team had precluded such questions.
- The Harris campaign allegedly apologized for the bacon comments and offered a reshoot, which Rahma declined.
- The incident highlights Harris's struggles with Muslim voters, as polls show declining support in that demographic.
