Back in March, for example, she <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/politics\/kamala-harris-border-crisis\/\">couldn&#8217;t stop laughing<\/a> after a reporter asked whether she had plans to go to the border and witness the crisis firsthand.<\/p>\n<p>The struggle continues, apparently, as Harris was unable to control her laughter once again during an interview with NBC&#8217;s Lester Holt on Tuesday. Not only that, but Harris also falsely claimed &#8220;we&#8217;ve been to the border&#8221; in a bizarre attempt to challenge the premise of Holt&#8217;s question.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This whole thing about the border. We&#8217;ve been to the border. We&#8217;ve been to the border,&#8221; Harris said.<\/p>\n<p>When Holt pointed out that she had not, in fact, been to the border, Harris appeared to concede. &#8220;I\u2014and I haven&#8217;t been to Europe. And I mean, I don&#8217;t\u2014I don&#8217;t understand the point that you&#8217;re making,&#8221; Harris said.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans seized, obviously, on Harris&#8217;s unusual remarks. As a result,\u00a0Holt&#8217;s colleagues in the media were quick to seize on the GOP seizing. &#8220;Republicans and conservatives are going crazy on Twitter,&#8221; <em>New York Times<\/em> reporter Katie Rogers said during Tuesday&#8217;s press briefing at the White House.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Does the president think there is a scenario in which she should visit the border? And also the mounting criticism from conservatives, would that ever factor [into] a decision to send her down there?&#8221; Rogers continued. &#8220;I mean, don&#8217;t they have a point that if she has this task in front of her, should she not see the end cause as well as the root cause of the problem?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>White House press secretary Jen Psaki responded vaguely, suggesting that visiting the southern border was something that Harris &#8220;certainly may do&#8221; at some point.<\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Kamala Laughs Through Border Crisis\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZzEhe2xOlKg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vice President Kamala Harris is supposed to be in charge of the immigration crisis on the southern border but is struggling to take the assignment seriously.
