In a recent appearance on Fox News, Senator John Kennedy (R-La.) fearlessly called out Vice President Kamala Harris for her baffling word salads. The discussion centered around the annual Essence of Culture Festival, which took place in Kennedy’s home state of New Orleans. Harris, known for her convoluted and confusing speech, left even her biggest supporters scratching their heads when she attempted to define “culture.”

Kennedy, known for his wit and frankness, did not hold back in his assessment of Harris. While clarifying that he did not hate the Vice President, he pointed out that her frequent word salads revealed a glaring lack of preparation and an inability to communicate effectively with the American people. Kennedy emphasized that even when she is prepared, Harris still struggles to sound intelligent and connect with average Americans. This is a significant issue for someone in her position of leadership.

The Senator also suggested that Harris lacks self-awareness, as she continually tries to appear smart rather than being true to herself. He quipped that some may believe English is not her first, second, third, or even fourth language based on her performances. Kennedy’s advice, not just for politicians but for anyone, is to always be yourself unless you suck. And if you suck, have the self-awareness to acknowledge it and strive to improve. Unfortunately, Kennedy does not see Harris embracing this advice.
In my opinion, Kennedy hit the nail on the head with his assessment of Harris. His comments align with other reports suggesting that Harris has a massive ego and is quick to shift blame onto her staff for her own mistakes. It seems that she lacks diligence when it comes to verifying information before speaking publicly, leaving her staff to deal with the aftermath of her embarrassing gaffes.
From the beginning of her political career, Harris has been her own worst enemy. Her rise in California’s Democratic circles was largely attributed to an affair she had with a married man in power, not for her actual abilities. Her selection as Biden’s running mate seems to have been a calculated move to appease influential black Democrats, rather than a reflection of her qualifications. Harris’s lack of competence and inability to connect with the American people has only been magnified on the national stage, confirming what Californians have long known.
In conclusion, Senator Kennedy’s candid assessment of Vice President Harris’s word salads resonates with many Americans who have grown tired of her elusive and confusing rhetoric. It’s clear that Harris needs to focus on being prepared, communicating clearly, and embracing her authentic self if she wants to gain the trust and support of the American people.
