A Thursday evening CNN panel devolved into a heated argument after Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) repeatedly mispronounced Vice President Kamala Harris’s name.

Mace mispronounced Harris’s first name a few times during the interview, with various other guests correcting her.

But things became more heated as the discussion went on.

After author and professor Michael Eric Dyson said former President Trump was playing reruns with his campaign statements. Mace quickly clapped back.

“Talk about reruns, Kamala’s—Kamala’s,” Mace began, saying the vice president’s name correctly the first time but mispronouncing it the second time.

Mace was interrupted by former Clinton White House aide Keith Boykin, who said, “You had it right! You almost got it!”

Mace is a fighter

It’s “Kommie-la.” Pretty simple to pronounce.

[j.havenfarm]

She’s mostly a nut. It’s a good troll but more likely caused by inability to recall the proper pronunciation

Libs despise Conservative women. They see them as traitors to the sisterhood.

No one can remember because it’s just a method of control. Whichever way you say it is the hateful way 🤣. Calling Trump a Rapist and Hitler is fine though.

[Veto!]

Kamalamadingdong was name used online somewhere and I’m sticking with it.

> Kamalamadingdong

I like that one too. Most people laugh. But I try not to use it around liberal acquaintances who are easily offended.

[joshua c]

rhymes with commie

[Fledermaus]

Pretty desperate to whine about a pronunciation

Here is the clip.

Some time ago Fox had a clip of Kamala pronouncing her name both ways. I looked but could not fine it.

Best recourse is to just stick to “Heels-Up”...

[Clarancebeaks]

Kamala the headhunter was a one time black professional wrestler. Harris is also a “headhunter”, so the name fits her perfectly

[AppyPappy]

Also named Harris. Sugar Bear Harris

[Tennessee Nana]

Doesnt CNN know its pronounced KarMarLar ???

[MikelTackNailer]

Kamala the headhunter was a one time black professional wrestler.

I regret she will blot out the dignity of James Harris's hard-earned legacy with her clownish performances.

[MikeyB806]

King Charles’ current wife was in the headlines long before Harris was a national figure: Camilla Parker Bowles.

You say, “Camilla” I say “Kamalla”

[EastTexasTraveler]

I think it’s Kamalalaladingdong.

[Gaffer]

I’d be saying “Que-Mala?”

[Fireone]

Here’s how I remember the correct pronunciation...
Say this name: Pamela. See, it’s easy!

Pretty desperate to whine about a pronunciation

Pretty rinky-dink to intentionally mispronounce a person’s name, thinking that you are so smart and witty to think of it.
About fourth grade level.
