Kamala’s word salads

Kamala’s word salads

Kamala Harris is famous for her word salads. The latest being when she and Biden met the prisoners released by the Russians. She said “This is just an extraordinary testament to the importance of have a president who understands the power of diplomacy and understands the strength that rests in understanding the significance of diplomacy.” However, the release from her campaign on X was “This is an extraordinary day and I am thankful for our president. This is an extraordinary testament to the importance of having a president who understands the power of diplomacy and strengthening of alliances. This is an incredible day and you can see it in the families and in their eyes.”

Is this what they mean by gaslighting? If her campaign is going to have to interpret what she is saying they probably need to hire a full time staffer just for that purpose.

I googled some of her other words of wisdom.

“I can imagine what can be, and be unburdened by what has been.”

“I love Venn diagrams. I really do, I love Venn diagrams. It’s just something about those three circles and the analysis about where there is the intersection, right?”

“I don’t know what’s wrong with you young people, you think you just fell out of a coconut tree.” “You exist in the context of all in which you live and what you came before you.”

“Who doesn’t love a yellow school bus, right? Can you raise your hand if you love a yellow school bus? Many of us went to school on the yellow school bus, right? It’s part of our experience growing up.”

“Culture is — it is a reflection of our moment in our time, right? And in present culture is the way we express how we’re feeling about the moment.”

She declared the 2024 race for the White House “is the most election of our lifetime.”

“So, I think it’s very important, as you have heard from so many incredible leaders, for us at every moment in time — and certainly this one — to see the moment in time in which we exist and are present, and to be able to contextualize it, to understand where we exist in the history and in the moment as it relates not only to the past but the future.”

“We invested an additional $12 billion into community banks, because we know community banks are in the community, and understand the needs and desires of that community as well as the talent and capacity of community.” 

“We also recognize just as it has been in the United States, for Jamaica, one of the issues that has been presented as an issue that is economic in the way of its impact has been the pandemic.”  “So to that end, we are announcing today also that we will assist Jamaica in COVID recovery by assisting in terms of the recovery efforts in Jamaica that have been essential to, I believe, what is necessary to strengthen not only the issue of public health but also the economy.”

“it’s time for us to do what we have been doing, and that time is every day” 

“I think that, to be very honest with you, I do believe that we should have rightly believed, but we certainly believe that certain issues are just settled. Certain issues are just settled.”

 “We’ve got to take this stuff seriously, as seriously as you are because you have been forced to take this seriously.” 

“I think the first part of this issue that should be articulated is AI is kind of a fancy thing.” “First of all, it’s two letters. It means artificial intelligence, but ultimately what it is, is it’s about machine learning.”

“This issue of transportation is fundamentally about just making sure that people have the ability to get where they need to go! It’s that basic.”

“And we should always find times to express how we feel about the moment that is a reflection of joy, because as you know, it comes in the morning.”

She also spoke at a White House event for Women’s History Month to “honor the women who made history throughout history.”

And of course “The problem of solving a problem is not a problem, but when a problem solves a problem without any problem. Then the problem is not a problem at all.”

But hey, nobody is perfect.
