Kamala Harris seems to have learned something from Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton: how to make things up to appeal to your audience.
Hillary Clinton pulled out the hot sauce story and a fake Southern accent. But Biden plunged headlong into fantasy, specializing in phony stories to connect with his audiences. He was everything to everyone instead of just being himself. It's great evidence of his basic insecurity.
I'm not sure what's going on with Harris' changing accents. Some think it's about appealing to the audience; others speculate on other reasons she might be behaving oddly. I wrote about this before, and you can see the wildly different comparison with basically the same line on the same day in two different cities, first Detroit and then Pittsburgh, with two totally different accents.
Some even compared the accent on the left to "Foghorn Leghorn." But it certainly wasn't her normal speech.
Kamala Pulls Out a New Southern Accent That Tops All Other Pander Attempts
It's a perfectly reasonable question to ask what the heck is wrong with a person when she does something like that.
At the White House briefing on Tuesday, Fox's Peter Doocy asked: Since when does Kamala Harris "have a Southern accent"? It just made White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre lose her mind as she pretended not to "have any idea what the was talking about."
She tried to act like Doocy was making something up, much the same way the White House denied Biden's issues before he was nailed on them at the debate. "Do you hear the questions you're asking?" she exclaimed. It's all just people making things up. But KJP added another aspect, asking if he thought that people cared about such things.
"You know what they care about?" she asked. "They care about the economy. They care about lowering costs. They care about healthcare. That's what they care about." She then threw in democracy and freedom, too.
Yes, there's no doubt the American people care about a lot of those things, and Harris scores badly on those as well.
"I'm not even going to entertain," KJP said. "Hearing it just sounds so ridiculous."
Yes, I agree — Kamala's accent does sound ridiculous. Doocy went there saying, "Well, hearing it.."
But obviously, KJP is substituting outrage for answers because she has none — at least none that she wanted to offer on Harris' behalf. "It's just insane," she said. Yes, that's the problem.
But she can't change the fact of what Kamala Harris said and did — the internet and the video is forever. But that's the Biden-Harris team in a nutshell — refusing delivery on reality if it makes them look bad. It matters because it shows how fake Harris is. Add that to how fake she is on policies, flip-flopping all over the place as well. It adds more to the understanding of her and why she isn't trustworthy. And it's just bizarre.
