“Is she drunk?”: Viral videos of Kamala Harris fuel accusations of “intoxication” at election rallies

Latest videos from Kamala Harris' public appearances have triggered controversywith Social Media Users are circulating claims that she was “intoxicated” during her speeches. The clips in question show Harris at a rally in Prince George's County, Maryland, where she was joined by President Joe Biden, and another from her visit to Madison, Wisconsin, in March.
In the Maryland clip, Harris is seen introducing President Biden and discussing plans to lower prescription drug prices. In the Wisconsin video, she talks about the “strength of democracy.” Despite the context, some users have accused her of being an alcoholic, citing these appearances as evidence of her alleged drunkenness.

Critics posted comments on social media questioning Harris' sobriety. One user said Harris's manner of speaking resembled “vodka Pelosi,” while another expressed concerns about whether she could perform her duties if she was actually drinking. One commenter dramatically speculated about the effects of a potentially drunk commander in chief.

Harris's defense attorneys have strongly denied these allegations, calling them baseless and repetitive. “It is clear that these attacks are nothing more than trite and unfounded criticism,” one defense attorney said. Another commented, “The latest allegations are desperate attempts to undermine her credibility.”
With the 2024 elections approaching, these allegations continue to spark debate, with supporters calling for a focus on policy and performance rather than unfounded personal attacks.
