The Democrats' candidate has been utilising social media in her bid to prevent Donald Trump from becoming a two-time president.

Several of the TikToks from her official campaign page have gone viral, including a montage with Alan Shearer's iconic commentary after England's penalty shootout victory over Switzerland at Euro 2024.

The video starts with unflattering pictures of Trump and his running mate JD Vance as Shearer says: "[Cole] Palmer, [Jude] Bellingham, [Bukayo] Saka, [Ivan] Toney, Trent [Alexander Arnold]. Pressure?"

The TikTok then transitions to snaps and clips of Harris and her running mate Tim Walz as Shearer says: "What pressure?"

Another said: "Great sound choice."

Moments after he finished cracking up, fellow podcast host Micah Richards said: "That was one of the great lines, that is.
