Saxophonist falls asleep onstage during Kamala Harris awards dinner anti-Trump rant
NY Post ^ | 4/30/26 | Victor Nava

It was a real snoozefest.

Former Vice President Kamala Harris put a saxophonist to sleep on stage Wednesday during a rant against the Trump administration at an awards dinner.

Overtaken by fatigue, or boredom, the drowsy horn player drifted off right as Harris warned that “people would take to the streets if they tried to cancel elections,” video from the Public Counsel’s William O. Douglas Award Dinner in Beverly Hills, Calif., obtained by TMZ, showed.

The footage, taken by an audience member, showed the musician had his eyes closed and head down for nearly a minute, all while sitting just a few feet from the failed 2024 Democratic presidential nominee onstage.

“They have had an agenda that has been in place for decades to get to this very moment and beyond, which is to make it so difficult for the people to vote that they won’t,” Harris raged, as the saxophonist snored.

She continued, “Because they know the people are not stupid and see the corrupt, incompetent, callous administration that is in the White House right now, and they are so damn scared of losing the midterms.”

The jazz player roused himself awake, it appears, just in time to play Harris off the stage.

**SNIP**

During the chat, Harris argued that Democrats “need to be ruthless” in countering Republicans.

She also admitted Democratic politicians “dropped the ball in a variety of ways” and urged people to “challenge the status quo and fight the system on behalf of the people.”

Fortunately he didn't stop breathing.

He was probably the only one in the audience who could reed.

Not to be picky NY Post, but a saxophone is a wind instrument and not a horn.

My black lab sounds like a sax when she snores.

The sleeper knew that she has nothing to say; after all, Kamala flunked the California Bar Exam which apparently qualified her to be the state’s Attorney General.

It was probably a good paying gig. Snooze between bars is a thing.

“Harris warned that “people would take to the streets if they tried to cancel elections,”

Who has even so much as implied that elections would be canceled? Who?

Louisiana is postponing their May primary to gerrymander their map before the vote.

“Double four time” refers to 4/4 time (four quarter-note beats per measure), often called “common time”. It is used in music to describe a steady, four-beat rhythm where the first beat is strongest, used in jazz and rock. Synonyms and related terms include 4/4 meter, quadruple time, common time, and “four-on-the-floor”. That’s what it was Kamala.

Cancelling elections is not something Trump and the Republicans would do, and if they tried, MAGA people would stop them.

As the worst president ever (at the time), I honestly thought the New York Times would advocate for Obama to be made President for Life. And remember, it was the NYT that told Biden to quit, and he did.
