With only days left until the upcoming general election, Vice President Kamala Harris\u2014who is the Democratic presidential nominee\u2014received an undeniably amusing (though perhaps not for her) &#8220;October Surprise&#8221; from her own boss. As momentum clearly shifted towards Republican nominee Donald Trump, it seemed Harris was thrown a lifeline after a controversial joke made by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe at a Trump rally in Madison Square Garden. Hinchcliffe compared Puerto Rico to a floating island of garbage, and Democrats seized on this joke to accuse Trump&#8217;s team of insulting potential voters. However, we may never know if they could have turned that into an effective campaign message.<\/p>\n<p>The twist here is that while trying to leverage Hinchcliffe&#8217;s comment, President Joe Biden ended up disparaging about half the nation himself. During a Zoom call on Tuesday evening, he responded to the joke with his own remark: &#8220;The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters.&#8221; Despite attempts from the White House to clarify his statement, many interpreted Biden&#8217;s words as labeling all Trump supporters as garbage. Various Democratic representatives are arguing that he was referring specifically to Hinchcliffe and not attacking half the country directly. One notable Democrat who had remained silent on this issue? Harris herself. When she finally addressed Biden\u2019s comments about calling half the country \u201cgarbage,\u201d her convoluted response suggested it might have been better for her campaign if she had stayed quiet.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUh\u2026 listen,\u201d an obviously frustrated Harris began when asked about Biden\u2019s remarks on Wednesday. She proceeded with typical political rhetoric: \u201cI think that first of all, he clarified his comments. But let me be clear; I strongly disagree with any criticism of people based on who they vote for.\u201d She asserted that she would be president for all Americans regardless of their support (sure thing).<\/p>\n<p>Had she stopped there, perhaps we could move past this latest controversy leading up to November 5th without further incident. But true to form, Harris continued speaking and made an eyebrow-raising claim with significant implications when asked if she&#8217;d discussed Biden&#8217;s viral remarks with him: \u201cI did; uh, he did call me last night but this didn\u2019t come up.\u201d Really? With just days before such an important election and after incendiary comments from the president regarding Americans\u2019 character not being mentioned? That seems hard to believe.<\/p>\n<p>This leaves us considering three possibilities: 1) Harris is lying; 2) She didn&#8217;t bring it up because she&#8217;s in such an echo chamber that calling half the country &#8220;garbage&#8221; doesn&#8217;t seem problematic; or 3) Biden didn\u2019t mention it because he&#8217;s losing touch mentally\u2014though he&#8217;s deemed fit enough now but not quite ready for re-election.<\/p>\n<p>With Election Day fast approaching\u2014it feels like we&#8217;re at crunch time\u2014the question remains whether Hinchcliffe\u2019s joke so close to voting day was wise or even damaging beyond measure\u2014but Democrats could have still gained some traction from it instead of squandering their opportunity due to poorly timed remarks by their party leader while also having a vice president unable or unwilling to articulate things properly amidst these controversies<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2361708,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Kamala-Harris-18.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[3620,44031,32438,5894,42751],"class_list":["post-2361707","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-biden","tag-bizarre-claims","tag-kamala-harris","tag-politics","tag-public-response"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Kamala-Harris-18.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2361707","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2361707"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2361707\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2361708"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2361707"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2361707"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2361707"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
