You can always tell when Kamala Harris is caught in the web of her own lies. Like a bad poker play, Kamala has a tell.

Now, I’m not one of these “body language” people. Maybe there is a valid scientific basis for it. Who knows? I certainly don’t know.
So when I say Kamala has a tell, it isn’t based on my vast expertise in the field of body language. Instead, it’s based on experience – specifically experience watching Kamala get caught in a lie.
Let’s put it this way. She doesn’t have a poker face. And if she’s raising stakes while holding a pair of deuces, everyone at the table would know it.
Last night, Kamala appeared on Anderson Cooper’s show to discuss Rudy Giuliani. And, as is her wont, Kamala made a wholly unsubstantiated claim, and when she got called on it, she made the “oh, crap” face of hers that she always makes when she gets caught in a lie.

Did you see it?
Here, let me help you out.
This is what I mean when I say Kamala has a tell.
That is the face she makes. The eyes go wide and the eyebrows zoom up. And her lips purse like she sucked on a lemon.
Think that’s a one-off?
Remember when she got called out about Jussie Smollett after we learned he was faking his hate crime?
Here’s the still image from that:
See it?
The eyes wide, the eyebrows high and the pucker mouth – Kamala has a tell.
Her face gives the game away even before she starts sputtering as her lizard brain scrambles to figure out a lie to cover her lie.
All that’s missing is a thought-bubble with the words “Oh, crap. I wasn’t expecting a follow-up.”
If I had to guess, I’d say Kamala Harris isn’t used to being challenged on her lies. Which would explain the look of complete surprise that crawls over her face when it happens.
This is why I keep telling you that Kamala jumped the gun. She is such an inexperienced politician, she doesn’t have the slightest idea how to play the game.
Plus, being a Democrat from California who has never once faced a challenge, this experience of being challenged is completely new to the poor gal.
Kamala’s so used to popping off and making unsubstantiated claims against people without even the slightest push-back that she suffers from instant brain freeze when someone doesn’t let her get away with it.
Could you imagine a President Kamala having to endure the barrage of garbage attacks from reporters that President Trump endures at every single presser?
Her face would freeze that way.
And if Nancy Pelosi stood up and pointed a finger at Kamala (the way her press secretary fantasized the other day)?
Good gracious. Kamala’s eyebrows would launch clean off her head and into the stratosphere. Her eyes would bug out so much, she’d look like Marty Feldman.
Maybe this is why Kamala is cratering in the polls.
You don’t have to be a body language expert to notice that Kamala has a tell. It’s larger than life and practically smacks you in the face.
Next time you see her getting interviewed — or even at a debate — watch for it. I guarantee you, at the first sign that her lies are being challenged, Kamala’s tell will make an appearance.
She can’t help herself.
Will she figure out the game enough to mask her panic? Maybe. Like I said, she’s from California, so she’ll never lose her Senate seat. So eventually, she’ll learn the game.
But will it happen in time to save her Presidential campaign.
I’m thinking no.
