She can utter about more than just coco trees .
If you’re on the side of TikTok where people are making the now-infamousBrat-themed edits of Vice President Kamala Harris, or you follow@KamalaHQ, you’ve probably seen one or two viral videos of Harris debating, questioning, or giving arguments. Likethis one, which currently has over 1.2 million likes:
And if not, congratulations on not being chronically online! Or, maybe you’re familiar with Harris’s old debates and arguments because you watched them live and not because you saw them alongsideTikToks of herset to Chappell Roan’s “Femininomenon.“Good for you!
Whatever the case, with Vice President Kamala Harrissecuring supportas the presumed Democratic nominee andramping up on the campaign trail, people are honing in on her debate skills before a potential Trump face-off, especially after President Joe Biden’s disastrous debate that ultimately led to the (successful) campaign to get him to exit the race. Womp womp.
I, too, would like to see more than one debate ~actually~, because I fear she might eat him up. So, cracks knuckles let’s take a closer look at some of her most cutting moments:
1.When Mike PenceinterruptedKamala Harris during the 2020 vice presidential debate, and she called him out so matter-of-factly, women everywhere sighed a huge relief:
2.When Brett Kavanaughcould not answerHarris’s question, “Can you think of any laws that give government the power to make decisions about the male body?” during his Supreme Court confirmation hearing in 2018…
…despite VERY clearly stating the question…TWICE:
3.Similarly, when Harris had former Attorney General William Barrstammeringwhen questioning him about the Mueller Report:
Basically:
4.When Harris, fed up with Gina Haspel’s (then-nominee for CIA director)refusal to answerwhether the interrogation tactics committed by the CIA post 9/11 were immoral — which reportedly included acts of torture likewaterboarding, confinement, exposure to extreme temperatures, sleep deprivation, and forcedrectalinfusions— put her finger to her head, exasperated, and asked, “Could you please answer the question?”
5.That time in 2020 when Republican Senator John Cornynseemingly triedto embarrass Kamala Harris on the Senate floor…and she was having NONE OF THAT:
You can still feel the silence in that room four years later.
6.In 2017, when senatorstried to quietHarris from questioning former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein over whether he would sign a letter to give Special Counsel Robert Mueller full independence from the Justice Department, but she didn’t back down:
7.And lastly, also in 2017, when former Attorney General Jeff Sessionstold Harrisher rapid questioning was making him “nervous” at a Senate Intelligence Committee hearing:
Anyway, with these old clips resurfacing and going viral (this videoposted three days ago has nearly 7 million views and 1 million likes on TikTok), Harris supporters are pretty pumped to see her debate:
Lots of non-Americans chimed in with support, too:
