Vice President Kamala Harris has managed to capture attention once again, and not for any reasons one might consider commendable. Fresh off an attempt at humor that fell flat on Saturday Night Live, the VP took to a pulpit in Detroit where her latest performance displayed not only her questionable ability to connect with audiences but also an accent so exaggerated it could make a Hollywood caricature cringe.
During her visit to the Greater Emmanuel Institutional Church of God in Christ, Harris attempted to bolster her political theatrics by delivering a sermon that was as predictable as it was awkward. Congregants heard her urge for advocacy on behalf of the marginalized and her repetitive calls to “turn the page on hate.” However, the real spectacle lay in her peculiar accent, which seemed more suited to a stage in a Southern drama than a church in Michigan.
Reports indicate that Harris quoted Scripture to bolster her message, and while the Bible verses she referred to were indeed poignant, they were overshadowed by her strange drawl. Harris’s performance would have been more believable if one squinted just right; to see her as a genuine candidate doing her best rather than a politician desperately trying (and failing) to resonate with an audience she’s clearly out of touch with.

The irony of the day was palpable as the public reflected on Harris’s performances. Was her awkward SNL appearance worse than her church sermon? The debate raged on social media, but most observers agreed that both instances showcased her inability to evade the perception of being inauthentic. Regardless of which blunder was deemed more cringeworthy, the critical issue remains her track record as Vice President, a role that has been littered with shaky policy stances and a lack of real leadership.
Americans are rightfully more concerned with the substance—or lack thereof—behind Harris’s political identity rather than the shallow gimmicks she employs to appear relatable. Anyone examining her stints as Vice President, Senator, and San Francisco prosecutor would be hard-pressed to overlook the failures she has amassed. With the elections on the horizon, voters will likely find clarity in choosing leadership that offers genuine authenticity over theatricality, which the current administration has abundantly showcased. President Trump’s return to the White House seems not just likely but preferable, offering a refreshingly straightforward alternative to the political charades that have become the norm under Democratic leadership.
