Kamala Harris raised eyebrows Wednesday when she was caught communicating with aides off-camera during a briefing on Hurricane Milton. The Veep covered her mouth and appeared to tell staff she was on a live broadcast after stumbling through a speech to the people of Florida.
From Fox News:
At one point during the briefing, Harris covered her mouth and appeared to relay a message to someone else.
“It’s a live broadcast,” she could be heard saying.
The moment came nearly 20 minutes after Harris stumbled through a speech to Floridians. She glanced down multiple times, appearing to reference notes or a script.
“To the people of Florida, and in particular, the people of the Tampa region: We urge you to take this storm seriously,” she said. “As has been said before, this is a storm that is expected to be of historic proportions. And many of you, I know are tough… and you’ve ridden out these hurricanes before. This one’s going to be different.
“We ask you that by every measure understand it’s going to be more dangerous, more deadly and more catastrophic. So please listen to your local officials,” Harris added. “They know what they’re talking about. They know what they’re doing. And if you are told to evacuate, please evacuate immediately. Do not wait until it is too late.”
Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton blasted Kamala on X, calling her “dangerously unprepared.”
“It’s deeply alarming that Kamala needs a script to ask a simple question. She is dangerously unprepared and unqualified to serve as president.”

Social media users also caught Harris’ strange behavior and raised concerns that she couldn’t answer simple questions without a script or assistance from her team.
