I thought maybe "The Democrats" was a satirical account and this new video of Kamala Harris was A.I.

But no, "The Democrats" is really the Democratic Party:


X provides a summary of posts about this: "The video, posted by the Democratic Party, has sparked discussions on social media regarding her appearance and speech, with some users speculating about her sobriety."

The top response I'm seeing is from Meghan McCain, who seems to be trying to help: "Take this down. She’s still the sitting Vice President for Gods sake - this is awful. Like really, really awful."

The US dodged a bullet. Worst candidate ever.

"Don't let anyone or any circumstance take your power from you"

What, like an election?

rehajm said...

If you thought it was AI that’s evidence keeping her isolated was an effective strategy…

wendybar said...

I'm sorry, but SHE is drunk. If not, she has a drug problem. It is plain to see. We dodged a BIG bullet with this one.

Eric the Fruit Bat said...

If I could order up an A.I generated pep talk I think I'd go with Gandalph, not Kamala Harris, but I'm not all that political.

Jaq said...

The rumor is that her people tried to stop her, and she demanded to make the video. Rumors... There were also rumors that Hillary was in her cups already at 10 am on that fateful Election Day, when she believed that she was going to win.

Zavier Onasses said...

Thanks for the warning, Kam. You are near the top of my "do not let this person touch my power" list.

Jaq said...

She sounds like Amy Winehouse in concert, when she's doing the between songs patter.

michaele said...

Kamala must have spent a nice slice of the over a billion dollar haul on make up artists and hairdressers. Left to her own beauty expertise efforts, she looks fairly bedraggled. Maybe it was the time difference if this was done while she was still vacationing in Hawaii. She does Not look well rested.

Jaq said...

For a while I used to go on collaborative writing websites, and people would write stuff and post it for comment. It was 95% completely rotten, and she sounds like these writers. They would make up stories about how a "dark power" had appeared in the woods at the edge of town, and this darkness was evil, and this darkness was... actually, that's a lot better than most of the stuff they wrote, but the point is that her speech about "power" shows a complete lack of any intellectual framework for her worldview. It's all based on feelings and vague intuitions.

rehajm said...

Democrats are arguing laws should only be enforced if they like them. We should take away their power Kamala…

rehajm said...

She sounds strokey…

Kevin said...

When the Democrats send its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.

MadTownGuy said...

When she says "your power," she means the Party's power.

amr said...

They decided to cut the clip right before the camera panned back to reveal that she's talking to a mirror. The next line was "You're good enough, you're smart enough, and doggone it people like you."

typingtalker said...

"Take this down. She’s still the sitting Vice President for Gods sake - ... "

Emphasis on "sitting."

RideSpaceMountain said...

Speculating?

Eva Marie said...

It’s joy-tastic. I look forward to her campaign for Governor of California.

Mike (MJB Wolf) said...

Yes the Peter Principle is real and yes the DNC as an organization has demonstrated for the whole world, thanks to Harris spending $1.5B revealing her best self, that one really can "rise to the level of their incompetence" and that this is especially true for entities that focus more on DEI than on skills and good ideas.

This episode doesn't show how successful Harris is. It shows how absolutely bereft of common sense the Democrat Party is.

tcrosse said...

Her megadonors still have lots of money left, although it's unlikely they'll give her another go at it.

Steve said...

Yikes...I usually dismiss the "he/she's a drunk" rumblings about politicians, but holy guacamole her mannerisms were like a recent conversation I had in a bar with a obviously-inebriated woman.

rhhardin said...

There's no option to skip philosophy. The only option is to philosophize badly.

Dixcus said...

The moral of this story is: Don't be an asshole to your staff or they'll release you actually being you.

Tina Trent said...

The old men will be underground. We’re either Althouse’s people or Kamala’s people, and that’s our power? Her truck needs new tires? Mike is a seed spreader? Willie Horton murdered a teenage gas station attendant. He was let out of prison on a Democrat-sponsored furlough, broke into a house, pistol-whipped, stabbed and strung the husband up on pipes in his basement, and made him listen as Horton tortured and repeatedly raped the man’s wife.

This is why Democrats lose elections, sweetie.

Temujin said...

Well, hell.
She's been the Vice President for near 4 years now. And now people are embarrassed at her demeanor and talk? Certainly we've had sufficient examples of her inability to make it through a thought, or speak it, over the years.
Not to mention our Sack O'Potatoes we know as our President.

My concern is that there were still 75 million people who looked at her and thought, "Yes. She is Presidential."

EdwdLny said...

Interesting strategy. Post a video trying to rally the troops, while coming off a multi-day bender. Hmm, not sure how this will go over. Good grief.

EdwdLny said...

I eagerly await any evidence that 75 million votes were cast by 75 million actual people .

Michael said...

Worst candidate since Michael Dukakis.

Michael said...

Remember Kathy Griffith with the severed Trump head? Broke her career. It's not enough to be smart. One needs have sober-minded confidantes who will get in your face and say, "This is a terrible, stupid, totally no good idea. Don't do it! "

Kamala clearly does not have that type of friend in her circle.

Whiskeybum said...

Looks like Kamala isn’t the only one hitting the sauce a bit early this Thanksgiving.

Quayle said...

Maybe she is gearing up to refuse to certify the election. She has the same power as before November 5th.

Leland said...

Did you hear that Biden? Don’t let anyone take your power. Please, listen to the woman.

Iman said...

“The US dodged a bullet. Worst candidate ever.”

I say the U.S. dodged an RPG.The entire episode would be funny if it weren’t so damned sad.

Sebastian said...

"She’s still the sitting Vice President for Gods sake" So now it's embarrassing to recognize KH for who and what she is? What does it say about Dems that this wasn't obvious to them as it was to everyone else? And what does it say about their sense of responsibility that they didn't recognize that everyone else recognized it, especially of course adversaries outside the U.S., and that they were still willing to hand power to that person, of all people?

Charlie said...

She makes Dan Quayle sound like Socrates.

Howard said...

It's perfectly good advice for people, mostly women, who are suffering from a relapse into terminal TDS. It is sad that people need the type of advice but there you are. I mean come on, this is essentially the same advice that Trump gave to his supporters on January 6th.

ndspinelli said...

In vino veritas.

Tom T. said...

I saw speculation that the party panicked over that poll showing her as the favorite for the 2028 nomination and posted this video to destroy her.

MadisonMan said...

That was my exact reaction. Very strong Stuart Smalley vibes.

Jersey Fled said...

Dukakis was way better.

Howard said...

Thread Winner

Dixcus said...

Her internal polls, according to her campaign manager Plouffe, never showed her ahead. Which makes the Iowa poll released 3 days before the election come into sharp focus.

The Des Moines Register paid noted Iowa pollster J. Ann Selzer to produce a fake poll on the eve of the election all so they could produce a late headline claiming Harris would win Iowa by 3 percentage points. She of course, lost by 9 percentage points.

Selzer then announced her retirement from polling (so of course, she'll never be made to pay any price for producing her fake poll.)

The Des Moines Register didn't demand their money back or sue Selzer. So it's obvious what they were after.

Kamala Harris is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life. And so is Meghan McCain.

Amadeus 48 said...

And Joe Biden. And Donald Trump.

pacwest said...

"My concern is that there were still 75 million people who looked at her and thought, "Yes. She is Presidential."

If she had got 25m votes I would be concerned. 50m would have meant we are in a downward spiral. 75m is a sign that the end times are near. Trump is high risk high reward, but even if everything he is trying to do has a measure of success he won't be able to turn things around on a dime (4 years).

BG said...

She does a very good impression of Estee Palti doing an impression of Kamala Harris, except she forgot to cackle.

Space City Girl said...

This makes me happy. The Dems haven’t learned a darn thing.

Wince said...

Ever notice how Kamala's gesticulations are often subliminally sexual?

Whether it's her hands above her breasts, as here, or in describing the "duality" of democracy" while fellating a microphone with one hand and fondling a scrotum with the other.

donald said...

I hope it mutilates him or her self.

Maynard said...

Kamala has a significant anxiety problem. My best guess is that she abuses anxiolytic meds to tamp down her shakes. If she has any alcohol, she will likely fall asleep.

The main reason for her anxiety is that she knows that she is totally phony and way over her head as VP and Presidential candidate. Nonetheless, the DEI mavens have been promoting her for the last 20+ years.

Michael said...

You know anyone else who dodged a bullet this year?

Gusty Winds said...

Who gives a crap about what Meghan McCain thinks? Leave Meghan, her father, and Kamala on the political history trash pile.
