No one thought that even Kamala Harris could fail at this remarkably simple task.
But somehow she managed to prove them wrong.
Kamala Harris humiliated herself in public when she asked this one question.
On Monday, Vice President Kamala Harris was sent out to promote Biden’s idea to spend $5 billion of Americans’ taxpayer dollars to build 500,000 electric vehicle charging stations across America.
Harris tried to demonstrate using the car charger herself but she was clearly ignorant about how they work.
After plugging in the car Harris tried to explain the difference.
“There’s no sound or fume,” she said, standing by the car holding the plug into the vehicle. “So all of us who are used to filling our tanks, we usually can smell it and you can hear it, and you can hear the guzzling sound. None of that.”
“So how do I know it’s actually working?” she continued with her awkward laugh.
The worker had to explain to Harris that since the car was plugged in the charger was indeed working.
“But how would I know that?” she asked. “Tell me how I would know that.”
The worker pointed out how the charger was blinking green and would until the car was completely charged.
Harris then claimed that it was important for the government to make sure that there’s charging station equity for low income and rural areas.
“If you can’t charge it up, then it doesn’t matter if you can’t drive it. Right? You can’t get to where you need to go,” she said.
Harris also promoted the idea that all electric chargers use the same plug.
“We’re experiencing this when you look at your smartphone, right? At all the different plugs you might need for different devices?” she said.
She also tried to bolster the Biden administration’s effort to offer a $12,500 tax credit for Americans who bought electric vehicles but only if they’re union-made.
While Democrats care deeply about unions receiving money they don’t actually care about the human rights abuses that their green energy pushes are creating.
Electric car batteries use cobalt and the vast majority of which comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo.
There are more than 40,000 child workers ̶ some as young as six years old ̶ estimated to work there, where they are forced to endure 12-hour shifts and paid just $1-2 per day.
“The salary is very, very small. It gives me a headache … The mine makes so much and we make so little,” one worker told The Guardian in November.
“The relationship between us and the [mine] is like a slave and a master,” he added.
But Harris wants to push electric cars no matter what the cost.
“Here’s the bottom line – we want more families in America to afford an electric car that was made in America,” she said.
