Like a one-trick pony, Vice President Kamala Harris served up yet another helping of word salad on Monday while visiting Children’s National Hospital in Washington, D.C. with U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy.
The Biden administration officials were on hand to issue “a warning Monday about burnout among the nation’s health care staff after more than two years of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the potential for severe worker shortages in the years ahead if the situation is not addressed,” PBS News reported.
They were also pushing for “new investments” — see more spending — into responding to the effects of the pandemic and talking about repetitive behavior, in delivering her remarks Harris continued a pattern of repeating herself as if she was in high school speech class and short on meeting a minimum word requirement.
“And I will tell you, I — I — most of my career — in fact, all of my career — children have been one of my main areas of focus — what we can do to protect them, to keep them safe, to protect their wellbeing, and to nurture them in all the ways we know we have a responsibility as a society to do,” Harris told health care workers who were on hand.
“You know, when we talk about our children — I know for this group, we all believe that when we talk about the children of the community, they are a children of the community. And in that way, we should all feel a direct sense of responsibility for their wellbeing.”

Fox News host Tucker Carlson ridiculed Harris’ performance on Monday’s program, calling her “a low-I.Q. wine mom.”
“So, you never heard anything about Kamala Harris during the 2020 presidential campaign that wasn’t about her inspiring firstness. She’s Black and Indian. She’s a first, she must be excited,” he said.

“So she gets elected in the country, wakes up the next morning and realizes, ‘Wait, we just elected a low-I.Q. wine mom as vice president.’ So the administration tried to give her jobs. ‘Hey, fix the border. Wait, get Russia to pull back and not invade Ukraine.’ That didn’t work. So now she’s become, and a lot of people do become this in middle age, just kind of a freelance philosopher. She’s like a dyslexic poet with a limited vocabulary, she just kind of bombs around the country emitting words. And they’re hilarious.”
The one thing that really stood out on social media was the look of self-satisfaction Harris gave at the end of her repetitive remark about children:
The funniest part of these bits with her is always the self satisfied expression on her face she makes through these gaffes. As if she is sharing some profound truth.

Some programs in the Matrix are glitchier than others, clearly.
The self-satisfied grin at the end of this is *chef’s-kiss* perfect. https://t.co/TKVRW6gjqy

The only thing scarier than a second term of @JoeBiden is a first term of @KamalaHarris. #Trump2024
