Harris hears boos at March Madness game, faces ridicule for speech to Howard players after loss
Fox News ^ | 3/17/23 | Ryan Gaydos

Vice President Kamala Harris unfortunately witnessed her alma mater, Howard University, lose to defending NCAA men’s basketball national champion Kansas on Thursday, 96-68.

Howard and Kansas played at the Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines, Iowa, and when Harris appeared on the video board, she received an icy reception. According to multiple reports, the boos outweighed the cheers from those in attendance.

After the game, the vice president got a chance to give the downtrodden Bison a pep talk in their locker room after their loss.

"You played hard. You played to the very last second. You made all us Bison proud," she said. "You are smart. You are disciplined. You put everything you had into the game. You guys did not stop, and that is so inspiring. So you keep playing with chin up and shoulders back because you showed the world who Bison are."

"So I know you may not be feeling great right now, OK, but know who you are. You are excellence. You are hard work. You are powerful, and you are winners."

Harris’ speech, however, did not really resonate with the rest of social media.

Joe and Kamala are peas in a pod.

Moving down the continuum of human stupidity, you first find people are merely error-prone. Next, you find people are generally incompetent.

But at the very extreme, there are people who at every opportunity do the EXACT OPPOSITE of what should be done or said.

That's the pod in which Joe and Kamala can be found.

As intellectually vacant as Joe Stupid is, and he is disastrously so, Que Mala is somehow even worse.

Can someone explain to me how this woman went through law school and passed a bar exam? I know affirmative action and Willie Brown had a lot to do with it, but even with that, how can such an obviously stupid, akward, socially inept person be promoted to such a degree and then exhibited for all to see. Our country is the laughing stock of the world, and our society is doomed.

“you are winners”

Everybody gets a trophy.

Do they get a WH visit as well?

Btw the DC media was pumping this Howard team like they were the greatest team since the UCLA dynasty.

I agree with you...one hundred percent..period!!! Bad, ugly, evil, and tough days lay ahead for our once great American Nation Republic and our American people, children, and families!!! Weak, anti-American Democrats, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and the entire Democrat Party itself is day, by passing day, destroying the greatest country the world has even seen!!!

Sadly the American voter, asleep at the wheel, did this to themselves, and will suffer great pain and destruction of our once blessed, country and its freedoms in total!!! The Statue Of Liberty, cries and sheds tears every day!!! America is finished....China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, etc., will rule the world, as our USA no longer has an effective military to defend the nation!!!...thanks to Biden/Harris and company!!!

Affirmative action & proof positive that being a lawyer does not mean you are smart or intelegent. Maybe just the opposite.

On a positive note, we can now form a guerilla army to become a thorn in the sides of those who believe that in defeating America they have stomped out the eternal ideal of freedom.

Omg—you can’t make up this stuff.

This is like “Yes, Prime Minister” level comedy.

They must be all white team or someone through a box of chalk onto the court and the knuckle draggers got occupied with playing hopscotch.
