You remember how she was all set to be our first female president? Well, things didn’t quite go as planned. And her latest misstep? Oh boy, it’s like the cherry on top of a cake nobody wanted!
So, picture this: Harris is in the Senate, doing what vice presidents do—leading the Pledge of Allegiance. Sounds straightforward, right? But hold onto your mugs because she flubs it big time! Instead of reciting the pledge we all learned back in grade school, she messes up like it’s an SAT question. Here’s what she said:
“I pledge allegiance to the United States of America. And to the Republic for which it stands…”
Wait for it… She totally skipped “to the flag.” Yep, the very symbol you’re pledging allegiance to! Can you imagine? Folks were quick to call her out on Twitter saying “HOLY SH!T Kamala Harris doesn’t know the Pledge Of Allegiance.” Ouch!
Now look, I get that everyone makes mistakes. But when you’re in a role like hers and have done this a million times before, missing something so fundamental feels pretty telling. It raises eyebrows and reinforces why many voters were not vibing with her during her presidential run last November.
And just for kicks, let me remind you how it’s supposed to go down:
“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”
Easy peasy! But here we are—Harris inadvertently highlighted what critics have been saying forever: her connection to American values seems more like a fashion statement than genuine belief.
And oh man, could timing be worse? This flub comes right before she has to oversee certifying her own political defeat. Talk about bad luck! While I doubt this will really change much for her political future—it seems pretty dim already—it definitely paints a picture of an administration that feels disconnected from regular folks.
In just a few days, she’ll officially hand over the keys to President-elect Trump and Vice President-elect J.D. Vance. So until then, we’re left with one last unintentional laugh at Harris’s expense—a fitting end for an administration that often felt out of touch with everyday Americans.
So there you have it! Another day in politics where reality is stranger than fiction. Let’s see where this wild ride takes us next!
