Dr Phil McGraw has revealed that his appearance at Donald Trump's Madison Square Garden rally in late October was 'an act of rebellion' against Kamala Harris

Dr Phil McGraw has revealed that his appearance at Donald Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally in late October was “an act of rebellion” against Kamala Harris.

While appearing in an episode of Uncensored by Piers Morgan On a talk show, the 74-year-old television personality insisted he gave his 17-minute speech to stick with Harris, 60, after his requests to interview her before the election were not returned.

“I requested to speak to Kamala Harris over 25 times and never got so much as a yes, no, maybe,” he said.

The father of two continued, “I offered to give the same speech at a Harris rally,” McGraw insisted as he explained that he offered to “cross out Trump’s name, write down Harris’ name.”

During his speech, which he clarified was not an endorsement of Trump, he described the former president as “tough as an old army boot” and said he was not a “thug.”

While speaking with Morgan, McGraw revealed that a Harris campaign staffer finally reached out to him the morning after her speech at the Trump rally in New York.

After being asked if he would be interested in speaking at a Harris rally in Washington, D.C., McGraw said he told the staffer, “Sure, tell me when and where to be, and I’ll bring a transcript of the speech and give it in a Harris rally.

“I never heard another word once they found out I was serious,” he said.

McGraw, then, remained steadfast in his belief that his speech at the Trump rally was not to “endorse Donald Trump.”

“I don’t like celebrity endorsements,” the talk show host explained.

Still, McGraw said he doesn’t “backtrack on what he said” (at the Trump rally) one iota, not one word.

“I would still go to a Harris rally and say the exact same thing,” he added.

When asked directly if she had made a decision about who she would vote for, the star responded: “I think so, but I’ll never say.”

‘No human being is perfect. We do not strive for perfection. We strive for excellence. “But you don’t have to love everything about someone to love them, and the last thing you need is a celebrity endorsement,” she said.

McGraw also talked about how different media outlets cover celebrity endorsements are when a star endorses Trump or Harris.

‘I would love to say there is equality on both sides, but I guarantee you that when Beyoncé, George Clooney, De Niro and Lizzo come out and say they are for Kamala Harris, did you read or hear anything in the media criticizing? he?’ asked. “No, but look what will happen tomorrow morning when people find out I came here to talk to you.”
