Joe Biden Campaign Isn’t Selling ‘I’m Speaking’ Shirts, But Here’s Where You Can Buy Them
After the debate between Vice President Mike Pence and Joe Biden’s running mate Kamala Harris on Wednesday evening, T-shirt and other memorabilia commemorating the event began to surface on the internet.
Catchword phrases such as “I’m Speaking” adorned several T-shirts on Etsy sellers’ shops after Harris called Pence out for interrupting her during the debate.
Other references to the debate that found their way on to T-shirts, face masks, and coffee mugs among other products included “Excuse me, Mr. Vice President, I’m speaking” and “The fly doesn’t lie,” which referred to a rogue fly that landed on Pence as he spoke during the debate.
Biden’s campaign site also began selling fly swatters for $10 that said “Truth Over Flies.”
Capitalizing on the fly moment with Pence, Biden created a campaign fundraising event by posting a photo of himself with a fly swatter on Twitter, asking for $5 donations to “help this campaign fly.”
Biden also tweeted a second post on Twitter that gave the link “flywillvote.com” that directed users to iwillvote.com – a site where they could check if they were registered to vote among other voting information.
This is not the first time that the Biden campaign jumped on a key debate comment. The presidential hopeful started selling “Will You Shut up, Man” T-shirts after making the comment during the first debate with Trump after the president also interrupted him. The T-shirts went on sale before the debate was even over, selling for $30 each.
Trump’s fight with COVID-19 has also been documented in a promotional piece from the White House Gift Shop, which has no affiliation with the White House or the Trump campaign. The shop is selling commemorative coins in a “Trump defeats COVID” design. The coins are said to have a “superheroes motif” and sell for $100.
