Kevin McCarthy has taken the stage to salute Donald Trump and Senator J.D. Vance for their impressive campaigning skills, particularly in stark contrast to President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, who couldn’t tear themselves away from other obligations while honoring the 13 American heroes who tragically lost their lives in a suicide bombing in Afghanistan. It seems that while Trump was busy “walking presidential” at Arlington National Cemetery, Biden and Harris were nowhere to be found, perhaps stuck in a Zoom meeting about climate change or some other urgent matter that wouldn’t require their presence at a patriotic event.
McCarthy raised a crucial question during his appearance on Fox News’s The Ingraham Angle, where he quipped about Kamala Harris’s conspicuous absence. The former House Speaker highlighted how Harris’s absence screamed louder than any statement she could have made, indicating that she clearly has an impressive talent for avoiding responsibility. Instead of being there to honor the fallen, she opted to remain in the shadows, leaving many to wonder if she’s going to flip on this absence just like she flips on policies.
Vance has also been vocal in his criticism of Harris, questioning her ability to enact any of the promises she made during the 2024 campaign, especially when she’s currently in a position that could facilitate them. McCarthy likened her situation to an employee asking for a raise after three and a half years of underperformance. It’s an interesting analogy that reflects a particular frustration felt by many Americans – voters want representatives who show they can handle their jobs before they come asking for another term.
McCarthy didn’t stop there, taking a jab at Harris for her sudden shift toward centrist policies in an apparent attempt to woo voters. His clever rebranding of the Vice President from Kamala to “Kahamela” serves as a reminder that politicians who frequently change their colors can hardly be trusted; after all, nobody likes a political chameleon when times get tough.
McCarthy argues Trump uses actions, not words, to showcase leadership

As the race heats up, McCarthy bluntly remarked that the campaign is short and Harris is trying to play it safe by avoiding the press like it’s a plague. He suggested that if she had to run for the nomination in an honest fashion, her chances would have been about as good as a snowball’s chance in July. In the meantime, Harris is set to appear alongside Governor Tim Walz in her first interview since securing the Democratic presidential nomination. Early buzz suggests that sharing the spotlight may indicate a lack of confidence on her part – a sentiment that might resonate with those who are painfully aware of her record thus far.
Polling data shows Harris is managing to stay ahead of Trump among independents in battleground states, giving her campaign a glimmer of hope. However, with a tight race in Pennsylvania and a shadow of controversy surrounding Harris, it remains to be seen how her attempts at centrist appeal will fare as voters look closer at her track record. The next few months promise to be a real test of her political prowess—or lack thereof.
