Fox News' Greg Gutfeld has catapulted Kamala Harris into the spotlight, not for a praiseworthy cause, but for being the "most unpopular VP in recorded history," as per an NBC poll.
The well-known TV host did not mince words during his monologue on the Wednesday, June 28 episode of his show Gutfeld!. Gutfeld stated, "Tonight's speech is a nod to our left-leaning friends who seem to be advancing despite their failures. And heading this troupe is VP Kamala Harris. It's perhaps the only time she's been at the forefront. And what an achievement!"
As Gutfeld sees it, Harris' unpopularity surpasses other vice presidents including Al Gore, Joe Biden, and Dick Cheney, the latter who even had a mishap involving shooting someone. Gutfeld humorously contrasted Harris' performance, saying, "So it seems women indeed can outdo men, albeit in an undesirable arena. Harris truly exemplifies the watered-down version of a VP."
In his show, Gutfeld also showcased a video clip of Harris and Andy Cohen reveling in a Pride celebration in New York City, which he referred to as uncomfortable. He quipped, "That was torturous. I haven't witnessed such strained laughter since Jimmy Kimmel hosted the Oscars. It was even more awkward than a hypothetical 'bring your daughter to work day' for Hunter Biden."
Despite Harris' approval ratings being low, Gutfeld warned his audience that Harris remains a stone's throw away from the presidency. "Even with Kamala's endorsement rates matching those of CNN, she remains a heartbeat away from the presidency, assuming that President Joe still possesses one. He appears to be operating at a reduced pace."
As OK! magazine previously noted, Fox News commentators have lately been quite harsh on Harris, who is 58.
In an episode of The Five, Jeanine Pirro shared her own critical views on Harris. She claimed that Harris was in a position to pave an easier path for future women vice presidents. Instead, Pirro contends, she set a precedent that women are incapable of the role. "She was in a position to make the pathway smoother for other women to step forward and demonstrate their capability to perform this role," she said. "If anything, she's established a precedent that a woman isn't fit to be vice president."
