Summary
Kamala Harris is the Democratic presidential nominee for the remaining 100 or so days in the 2020 campaign. She's a firecracker of a woman who could easily be the next president of the United States. But how would she do it if she was running against Joe Biden?

00:00:00.000
The Democrats are now considering what will be unburdened by what has been, namely Joe Biden.
00:00:06.420
It's been the honor of my life to serve as your president, but this sacred task,
00:00:13.040
Kamala Harris is the presumptive nominee for the remaining 100 some odd days in the 2024
00:00:18.800
presidential race. So we have dug up some of Kamala's most soaring orations to give you a
00:00:25.940
little glimpse into a woman who could be president. We've been to the border. So this whole thing about
00:00:33.700
the border, we've been to the border. We've been to the border. You haven't been to the border.
00:00:38.840
And I haven't been to Europe. I don't understand the point that you're making.
00:00:44.620
Kamala does this thing where she just repeats the same sentence like seven times because she doesn't
00:00:49.920
have that much to say because she doesn't really know anything. So she'll just, she has her line
00:00:54.020
and she'll repeat it seven times. And this is very awkward when the line is not true.
00:00:57.560
We have been to the border. We have been to the border. Lester, we have been to the border.
00:01:01.400
Lester, why are you, we have been to the border. Have you been to the border though?
00:01:06.760
No. What's your point? What are you talking about? Not a good start.
00:01:14.120
I think that to be very honest with you, I do believe that we should have rightly believed,
00:01:22.400
but we certainly believe that certain issues are just settled. Certain issues are just settled.
00:01:27.440
Clearly we're not. No, that's right. And that's why I do believe that we are living,
00:01:40.480
Whenever someone says, to be honest with you, I'm going to be honest with you, let me be honest
00:01:45.280
with you, that person is admitting that they are not regularly honest with you.
00:01:53.780
The words that Kamala Harris utters don't even rise to the level of speech.
00:02:00.280
They're just sounds that vaguely resemble speech.
00:02:03.740
So me think, why waste time? Say lot word when few word do trick.
00:02:10.420
You exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you.
00:02:19.800
This is actually a good point. This is the first good point I think I've ever heard Kamala Harris make.
00:02:24.280
And she makes it in a way that's bizarre and off-putting and ridiculous.
00:02:30.360
But the point she's making is that we are born into a family, into a community, into a country, in a society that exists in history,
00:02:49.520
We're not just atomized individuals who pop into existence in a cloud somewhere, or even outside of a cloud, you know, just in a vacuum.
00:02:56.680
So that's the point she's making. She's actually making an oddly conservative, dare I say, Burkean point.
00:03:04.040
But she's doing it in a really silly way, so everyone's just going to make fun of her if we're talking about coconut trees.
00:03:08.360
Good afternoon. I want to welcome these leaders for coming in to have this very important discussion
00:03:14.400
about some of the most pressing issues of our time.
00:03:21.060
I am Kamala Harris. My pronouns are she and her.
00:03:24.000
I am a woman sitting at the table wearing a blue suit.
00:03:32.080
The best part of this, obviously, is the blue suit.
00:03:38.820
The rest of it we've come to expect. It's very silly.
00:03:44.900
The pronouns for a woman are she, her. You know, you have to explain all of these things that...
00:03:48.880
Three-year-olds knew intuitively until about five minutes ago.
00:03:51.300
But then my favorite part is, and I'm wearing a blue suit.
00:04:01.680
Why is she doing this? The liberals will tell you she's doing this in order to paint a picture for blind people.
00:04:08.720
If you're blind, you can't tell what color suit she's wearing, so she wants to tell you that.
00:04:13.560
But who cares? Why do the blind people need to know what color suit she's wearing?
00:04:18.560
I would tell you to kiss my ass too, but you probably can't find it, you blind mother...
00:04:22.280
In the world of Kamala Harris, there is only the superficial.
00:04:28.500
There are just appearances and accidents and superficial trivialities.
00:04:34.160
It's all facade, but there's nothing behind the facade.
00:04:41.340
It's a semi-impressive facade in front of an arid desert that contains nothing.

00:06:02.520
If you believe Putin has made up his mind, what leverage do you really have?
00:06:10.700
And remember also that the sanctions are a product not only of our perspective as the United States,
00:06:19.300
And the allied relationship is such that we have agreed that the deterrence effect of these sanctions is still a meaningful one,
00:06:27.580
especially because, remember also, we still sincerely hope that there is a diplomatic path out of this moment.
00:06:35.900
But within the context of a diplomatic path still being open, the deterrence effect we believe has merit.
00:06:43.260
Okay, so what she's saying here is not so much silly as it is needlessly wordy.
00:06:48.440
All she needed to say was, we're instituting these sanctions because we want to deter Putin,
00:06:54.000
and we think that our strategy will be successful at deterring Putin.
00:06:57.700
What makes the clip ridiculous is that the day after Kamala Harris made this gobbledygook word salad for the reporter,
00:07:14.640
She could have saved us all 75 minutes or however long that interminable address was.
00:07:22.480
In those debates, you landed haymakers on Joe Biden.
00:07:27.240
I mean, they were, his teeth were like chicklets all over the stage.
00:07:30.720
And now I believe you that you're fully supportive of him.
00:07:36.180
And how do you go from being such a passionate opponent on such bedrock principles for you?
00:07:51.920
Not everybody landed punches like you did though.
00:08:01.240
It was a debate that the whole reason, literally it was a debate.
00:08:08.560
I remember this when it happened, but it, good, good on Colbert.
00:08:14.780
He said, look, there's this obvious question here.
00:08:16.620
Your whole campaign in as much as you had a campaign was about how Joe Biden's a big racist
00:08:21.720
and kept you off a school bus when you were a little kid because you're black.
00:08:27.800
That's a little more than Joe and I disagree on tax policy.
00:08:32.280
You said he's a horrible racist who kept you out of, tried to keep you out of school.
00:08:35.920
Uh, tell me about how you, how you came together.
00:08:49.000
I mean, she, she led herself into this really bad position where he says, see, you didn't mean it?
00:09:04.600
Your, your big attack during your brief presidential campaign that Joe Biden was a racist, that
00:09:12.620
Why should we believe anything you have to say now?
00:09:14.920
He, Colbert didn't say that last part, but that was implied.
00:09:20.080
Ha, ha, ha, ha, debate, debate, debate, debate.
00:09:25.400
I feel like I fell out of a coconut tree after watching those clips.
