Harris Takes Part In Briefing Ahead Of Storm

Kamala Harris really, really wants you to think she’s a capable leader. But with every public appearance, it’s like watching someone try to drive a car with faulty brakes—you just know it’s going to end badly. She’s still haunted by the ghosts of her disastrous 2020 campaign, and her handling of Hurricanes Milton and Helene has done nothing to change that perception. If anything, it’s just highlighted how out of her depth she is.

Let’s start with her briefing on Hurricane Milton, which hit Florida hard last night. Harris found herself in a classic hot-mic moment, revealing just how staged her performance really is. While National Weather Service Director Ken Graham was giving a serious update about the dangerous flooding expected from Milton’s landfall, Harris, who was supposed to be paying attention, got distracted by something behind the scenes. In a move straight out of a bad sitcom, she awkwardly covered her mouth with her hands, clearly trying to be discreet, and barked, “It’s a live broadcast.”

Think about that for a second: she had to remind herself and staff that she was on a live broadcast, in the middle of a briefing about a major natural disaster. It’s like a scene out of HBO’s Veep, except this isn’t fiction, and it certainly isn’t funny when people’s lives are on the line. And the best part? The microphone caught the whole thing. Graham politely wrapped up his update, but by then, the damage was done—Harris once again looked like someone playing the role of a leader, instead of actually being one.

And let’s not forget the earlier debacle with Hurricane Helene, when Kamala decided to pose for a photo op that turned into a meme-worthy moment. She was photographed listening intently to a call about the hurricane, but eagle-eyed observers couldn’t help but notice a few small details: her notepad was completely blank, and her earphones weren’t even plugged into her phone. It’s the sort of thing you’d expect from a student trying to fake their way through a presentation, not the vice president of the United States.

It’s one thing to put on a show during campaign season, but this is disaster response we’re talking about—people’s lives are at stake. Yet here we have Harris, struggling to even keep her thoughts straight while the cameras are rolling. It’s hard to imagine anyone watching these performances and thinking, “Yes, that’s the person I’d trust to lead us through a crisis.”

The pattern is clear: when faced with real challenges, Harris just doesn’t seem to have the chops to deliver. Whether it’s fumbling through a scripted speech or looking like a deer in headlights during a live briefing, she’s not exactly inspiring confidence. And given her track record of not being able to play with a full deck, who could blame anyone for being a little skeptical about her ability to handle a serious emergency?

The reality is, if Kamala Harris were in charge of disaster response, it’s a safe bet that things would go south fast. Her lack of preparedness and the obvious need for constant coaching and scripting don’t inspire trust—they just reinforce the image of a leader who’s in way over her head. If she thinks these awkward, staged moments are going to change anyone’s mind about her abilities, she’s sadly mistaken. At this point, if she were the one overseeing a crisis, you’d be better off praying for a miracle.
