Vice President Kamala Harris on Friday explained in extremely vague terms “what's at stake” in the 2024 election, telling Arizona voters “something's up!” before bursting into laughter.
Harris, who appeared to be speaking without a teleprompter, began her speech at a Scottsdale campaign event by saying that as Election Day approaches, America's status as a “model” of democracy “sometimes weighs heavily on me. '' he told supporters.
However, about five minutes into his speech, the vice president decided to explain the importance of the presidential election in simpler terms.
“So when you think about what's at stake in this election, there are a few things at stake!” Harris said, her voice breaking immediately afterwards.
“It's got some fundamental things in it,” Harris continued.
“I said it pretty clearly,” she added, seeming to realize how wordless the statement was.
However, the crowd applauded her oversimplification.
Social media users were far less forgiving.
“Possibly the worst presidential candidate in history…” FOX News contributor Joe Concha I wrote to Xsharing clips of viral moments.
Former President Trump Advisor Steve Cortez tweeted He said the clip was “cruel to watch.”
“Kamala Harris without a teleprompter is the Democratic Party’s worst nightmare,” he added.
Another X user described the vice president's speech as “a PTA president-level speech,'' and one person noted the “crazy laughter'' and “loud laughter'' that followed the speech.
Later in her speech, Harris promised that if elected, she would “create a bipartisan council” of advisers who would provide feedback on policy.
“I don’t want anyone to say ‘yes,’” she said. “We want people to participate and work on ideas.”
The event was attended by several Arizona Republicans who supported Harris in the election, including Mesa Mayor John Giles.
