These are not verbal stumbles or inarticulate expressions. Biden and Harris have fundamental gaps in their knowledge that permits their mouths to say such things. If she knew any better, she would have corrected herself as soon as she said it. The result is that Americans and the rest of the world are just tuning them out.
Kamala Harris continued an embarrassing week for the White House by mistakenly touting the U.S. alliance with ‘the Republic of North Korea’ – just one day after President Joe Biden called out for a dead congresswoman at an event on ending hunger.
The vice president concluded her trip through Asia with a visit to the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) on Thursday where she made the gaffe confusing the communist North Korea with U.S. ally nation of South Korea.
‘The United States shares a very important relationship, which is an alliance with the Republic of North Korea,’ Harris said during a speech at the DMZ Thursday, intending to refer to the Republic of Korea, the official name of South Korea.
Harris has been a politician so long she ought to be able to auto-pilot her way through such appearances. Even if she doesn’t care to retain detailed subject matter she should still be able to regurgitate a CliffNotes version of her event briefing. She always looks so very uncomfortable. Makes you wonder if she has a fear of public speaking she just can’t conquer.
