Vice President Kamala Harris has once again come under fire for delivering a strangely worded and repetitive statement, this time regarding community banks. During a recent event in D.C., Harris discussed the Biden administration’s efforts to expand investment in community banks and emphasized their crucial role in providing loans and financial assistance to small business owners, especially in overlooked and underserved communities.
Mockery on Social Media: Chad Gilmartin, the deputy spokesman for Speaker Kevin McCarthy, sarcastically questioned whether community banks also offer banking services, joining others on social media in mocking Harris’s statement. Social media users compared her comments to “word salads” and expressed doubt about the depth of her insights.
Past Instances of Repetition: This is not the first time Harris has faced criticism for her speaking style. Previously, she made headlines for her repetitive statements, including one about “space cooperation” and another about “community banks” during a roundtable discussion in September.
Amusement and Concern: Commentators and the general public alike are both amused and concerned by the vice president’s repetitive remarks. Many are questioning why such basic statements are being reiterated multiple times, especially coming from Harris, the second-highest-ranking official in the country.
