Vice President Kamala Harris, the current Democratic Party presidential nominee, spoke to a high school band on the topic of leadership, but if you listen to her chat, you’d swear she were speaking to a group of preschoolers. We all know that Harris changes up her accent depending on who she’s talking to, often employing a cringe-worthy southern accent when she’s down south doing a rally, but this takes the taco. How humiliating for the kids in the audience, to be treated like their five-year-olds rather than young people on the cusp of adulthood.
And the clip’s going viral too. Imagine being an attendee and having the vice president use a baby-talk sing-song kind of voice to lecture you about leadership and the video captured of that incident then being rocketed around the world at the speed of light. Horrifying.
Check out more from The Daily Wire:
Harris, who is now officially the Democratic Party’s 2024 presidential nominee despite the fact that she never won a single primary vote on her own merits, was campaigning with running mate Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) at her side at the time.

In the video, Harris appeared to be over-enunciating every syllable, speaking slowly as if she didn’t think the students would be able to keep up with what she was saying.
“Our country is counting on you,” she said, nodding her head with every word and talking with her hands for added emphasis. “All of you. You are leaders. By the very fact that you all are here in this room, doing what you do at this incredible school, doing it as one big team, understanding all the different parts that fit together to create a team.” Critics pointed out that Harris’ awkward communication style might be at least part of the reason her campaign team has not had her front and center, getting as much media exposure as possible.
“Kamala explains the concept of how teams work together to a high school band as if they are 5 years old,” conservative communications strategist Greg Price stated on social media. “It’s a real mystery why her handlers never let her speak without a script …”

How can one human being be this cringe when attempting to communicate with other people? It blows my mind. And this is who Democrats are supposedly “excited” to vote into the White House? Really? Leftists who are backing this woman for the Oval Office can never, ever again say anything about former President Donald Trump’s communication style.
“When the hands start a-wavin’, you know it’s gonna be baaaaaaaaaad,” The Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro stated in his own response to the clip.

“Can’t imagine being Tim Walz and having to listen to this bulls*** nonsense and then act like I agree with it???? Hilarious,” another X account responded.

Hiding Harris behind the walls of her presidential campaign is a smart strategy on behalf of those who are calling the shots for her election effort. This woman is, and I can’t believe I’m saying it, far worse of a communicator than President Joe Biden ever could be, even with advanced stage dementia. If progressives were worried about the optics from the Biden-Trump debate, they should be terrified of the results of the upcoming event between the former president and Harris.
