Even Vice President Kamala Harris laughed at her own word salads at a post-election speech on Tuesday.
During a visit to Prince George’s Community College in Maryland, Harris encouraged young people to “stay in the fight” since many of her fans were still reeling from her November setback.
“I want you to realize that this conflict is not new. “It dates back nearly 250 years to Lexington and Concord,” the vice president informed the gathering. “Generation after generation, it has been driven by those who love our country, cherish its ideals and refuse to sit passive while our ideals are under assault.”This fight now continues with you. “You are its heirs.”
With a knowing smile, Harris instructed her audience, “I ask you to remember the context in which you exist.” She paused and nodded, “Yes, I did that. “Uh-huh,” he said, laughing.
She appeared to be referring to a prior word salad her campaign had adopted: “You think you just fell out of a coconut tree?” You exist within the framework of your surroundings and what has come before you.
Social media users quickly mocked the vice president.
“She’s in on the joke now, but that doesn’t make it any less of a joke,” National Review senior writer Noah Rothman observed.
Collin Rugg, a political journalist, tweeted a video with the mocking caption, “I must say, this was impressive,” referring to her utterances as “profound comments.”
Juanita Broaddrick responded, “She should be made to sit alone in a room and watch her own videos.” “She is as intelligent as dirt.”
Rugg continued, “This is the woman that 75 million Americans wanted to send to negotiate with world leaders like Putin and Xi.” “This is extremely concerning.”
Steve Milloy of Junk Science urged followers, “If you have not thanked @realDonaldTrump today for saving us from this, please do so.”
“The context in which I exist is one in which your existence is casting a pall over my existence, and yet I feel unburdened by what was or will be,” New York Post columnist John Podhoretz joked. “Que Sera Sera.”
Pradheep J. Shanker, a National Review contributor, joked, “Right now, that context in which I exist is where you will be unemployed in a month or so.”
Republican communicator Matt Whitlock encouraged social media users to “imagine being a young Democrat staffer laid off right before the holidays because of bad campaign budgeting and seeing this.”
