Vice President Kamala Harris and her Democratic allies are emphasizing a new line of criticism against Republicans — branding Donald Trump and his running mate,
FILE - Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump , left, and Republican vice presidential candidate Sen. JD Vance , R-Ohio, attend the Republican National Convention, July 15, 2024, in Milwaukee. Vice President Kamala Harris and her Democratic allies are increasingly branding Trump and Vance as "weird." Democrats are applying the label with gusto in interviews and online.
Karpf said labeling Republican comments as “weird” is the sort of concise take that resonates quickly with Harris supporters. Plus, Karpf noted, “it frustrates opponents, leading them to further amplify it through off-balance responses.”Harris and her allies have used the label frequently A day later, multiple news releases from the Harris campaign described her opponents similarly, declaring simply that “JD Vance is weird” in part due to his stances on abortion, and Harris' campaign spokesperson saying that Vance had “spent all week making headlines for his out-of-touch, weird ideas.”
But Harris' own characterization of Trump as “weird” may date back even further. In his 2021 book, political reporter Edward-Isaac Dovere wrote that Harris reportedly gathered with aides in 2018 to prepare for her own presidential bid. Donald Trump Jr., the former president's oldest son, took to X on Monday to ask, “You know what’s really weird? Soft on crime politicians like Kamala allowing illegal aliens out of prison so they can violently assault Americans.”
The “coconut tree” story has itself become a Democratic in-joke in the days since Harris took over the campaign. Many of her supporters have embraced coconut emojis in their online accounts.
