☕ In what can only be described as a head-scratching moment, Vice President Kamala Harris delivered a chaotic and downright strange speech in front of a college audience, during which she went on a bizarre tangent about Starbucks cups. The gaffe, which has since gone viral, left many students and observers wondering what exactly was going on as Harris rambled incoherently about the importance of different Starbucks cup sizes, and how they somehow relate to government policies.
In the middle of discussing student debt and economic inequality, Harris took an unexpected detour, comparing the complexities of government to ordering a cup of coffee at Starbucks. “You know, when you go to Starbucks, you think you’re getting a small, but it’s called a ‘tall,’ and then there’s a ‘grande,’ but that’s not the biggest one, there’s the ‘venti,’ and it’s all very confusing, much like government,” she rambled, leaving the audience visibly puzzled. ☕
The speech took an even stranger turn when she started suggesting that Starbucks cup sizes were somehow connected to how people view economic policies. “It’s like, if you’re not paying attention, you could end up with the wrong cup, just like you can end up with the wrong tax plan,” Harris said, trying to draw a parallel between everyday coffee orders and complex governmental decisions. “Sometimes you need to pick the right size to fit your needs,” she added, leaving the audience wondering what any of this had to do with her actual political message.
This bizarre Starbucks analogy wasn’t the only strange moment of the speech. At one point, Harris began talking about how the names of the cup sizes symbolized societal inequality. “Why do they call the small cup ‘tall’? It’s misleading. It makes you think you’re getting something bigger than you are. That’s what’s happening with wages and jobs right now!” she exclaimed, as the audience chuckled nervously, unsure whether she was being serious or trying to make a point that simply wasn’t landing.
The Starbucks cups gaffe has quickly become the latest in a series of odd and confusing speeches that have many critics questioning Harris’s ability to stay focused and connect with her audience. “Kamala is out here talking about Starbucks cup sizes as if they have anything to do with the challenges we’re facing,” one critic noted. “It’s just another example of her going off-script and losing the plot.”
The speech also drew comparisons to Harris’s previous speaking gaffes, where she’s been accused of rambling incoherently or trying too hard to sound relatable. “She’s trying to make some big point about policy, but it gets lost in these weird metaphors and analogies that don’t make any sense,” one student said after the event. ♀️
As the video of the Starbucks cups rant continues to circulate online, Harris’s detractors are using it as further evidence that she’s out of touch with the issues facing everyday Americans. “She’s more concerned with the names of coffee sizes than she is with the actual problems we’re dealing with,” one commentator remarked. Critics have also pointed out that the moment felt forced, as if Harris was desperately trying to relate to the younger, college-age crowd but ended up sounding tone-deaf instead.

The issue is not Kamala. The issue is all of the Americans that will vote for her.

My god. This had finally change my view to vote for Kamala. We need to change the color of the lids, this is such an important issue. Who F’ing cares about the cost of living . Who cares about the drugs coming across our borders. Who cares about homelessness. Who cares about the cost of gas. Who cares about putting food in the mouth of my children. Let make sure that for anyone that wears lipstick, That it is an embarrassment to have on the F’ing lid of my 8 dollar coffee

This would have access to the nuke codes and be in talks with the likes of Putin, Kim Jong Un, etc. Maybe she’d simply humor them with her lipstick issues being the only woman in the room. But hey, they respect women………..right???️

…..”Chaos and confusion” after a contested election & violence and martial law are the Demoncrat plan
The juze killed thousands of Whites in mountainous western North Carolina — almost all MAGA/Trump voters — to win this important swing state, which has always been 50-50 Republican/Democrat.
North Carolina, from the Nixon days on with the California’s “Southern strategy”, used to be solid Conservative-Republican but ever since the Clinton years the juze have gotten more andmore brain-dead white Yankee liberals to pour into that state, and also Demoncrat-voting Hispanics, all in order to de-Southernize and liberalize the state.
The small coffee cups which she thinks are labelled large and the small wages go hand in hand, since the small wages and high inflation have been caused by her administration. The fact that so many Americans are willing to vote for this ditz just to check off a couple of boxes is what is so scary.
