Because Democrats know that Vice President Kamala Harris is not very quick on her feet when answering off-the-cuff questions, they have attempted to run a Joe Biden-like basement campaign. But at least with undecided voters, not answering questions is proving not to be a winning strategy. But now, in some crucial swing states, that game plan is becoming downright annoying to those on-the-fence voters. It’s so annoying that they feel her non-answers are insulting.
Two undecided voters appeared in a video recorded on Monday on a new platform called 2Way, in which they both stated that they feel “insulted” by Kamala Harris’s weak and void-of-information answers on what she would do as President of the United States. In a race that is razor thin, it is a risky group of voters to alienate.
The two undecided voters in question, one from Nevada named Jamie and another from Pennsylvania named Kimberly, both say they feel slighted by Harris’s dodging of the questions. Jaime stated:
With Harris, she just to date hasn’t given me a reason to vote for her. Every time she gets asked a question, it gets right to the stump speech or goes off on a tangent or doesn’t answer the question directly. So while I find Trump enraging, I find that she’s almost insulting my intelligence, thinking that I’m not gonna see through that.
Kimberly was quick to agree with Jaime, saying:
I can’t agree more with you. I feel insulted by her in some ways. I feel like this is her election to lose because I do think there are a lot of people who are over Trump and frustrated, and his just, as you said, he’s just dividing the country. But, at the same time, I feel like, especially at the debate, I feel like Kamala went and did the same thing that he’s been doing, and it is insulting, I think, to voters who don’t know what to do, and she’s not saying or making us feel any more confident in her. And it’s very frustrating.
Kamala Harris’ nonsensical word salads are beginning to pile up and seem to be wearing on undecided voters the most. During the September 10 debate, Harris was asked about some of her flip-flopping positions, like banning fracking and mandatory government buyback programs for assault weapons. She used that two minutes to respond by stating that her “values have not changed,” which translates to “my positions have not changed.” She then launched into how she comes from a middle-class background.
Then there was her solo interview with Philadelphia’s ABC affiliate in which those undecideds still did not get any real information. Anchor Brian Taff asked how she would fix inflation and the economy. What he got was, again, “I was raised middle-class where people were proud of their lawns,” and her plan to give first-time home buyers a $25,000 handout. Things didn’t get much better for undecided voters after Harris’ appearance at an Association of Black Journalists event, where she also gave non-answers about what she would do for Americans dealing with child and elder care expenses and the Israel-Hamas war, saying that a hostage deal and cease-fire agreement must be done, but then added, that “Far too many innocent Palestinians have been killed.” Which side of the fence is she on?
Undecided voters could be Kamala Harris’ undoing. A New York Times/Siena College poll taken before the September 10 debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris showed that 28 percent of likely voters wanted to know more about Harris, compared to just nine percent about Trump. After the debate, voters in a CBS focus group did not see anything new, with one black female voter saying that Harris just regurgitated Joe Biden’s hoax talking points. In another group of ten undecided voters interviewed by Reuters post-debate, six said they were leaning towards or voting for Trump, three would vote for Harris, and one was still undecided. Some said Kamala Harris was too “vague.” Others said they still did not know “what she is for” and that they heard more about why Trump was the wrong candidate but not why she was the right candidate.
Kamala Harris’ rehearsed, handler-approved pat answers that are really no answers at all to undecided voters’ questions on the issues facing the country and leaving them feeling like she has insulted their intelligence is not cutting it. What’s next, a new accent for every new crowd she speaks to? Oh, wait…
