Vice President Kamala Harris has formally borne witness to Maya Rudolph’s impression of her.
The Democratic nominee appeared Tuesday on “The View” and, after confirming that she had but to see Rudolph’s spot-on imitation on “Saturday Night Live,” watched a clip with the whole studio viewers — and actually dropped her jaw because it performed.
“I am so happy to be campaigning in whatever swing state I’m in,” says Rudolph as Harris within the clip, “which I will just refer to as Wisconsi-Pensyl-Va-Georgia.” (Watch her full response beneath on the 28:18 mark.)
“Oh my god!” Harris exclaimed to her “View” hosts after watching. “I hadn’t seen that! Oh, it’s so good. I mean, Maya Rudolph, she’s so good. She’s so good. She had the whole thing — the suit, the jewelry and everything. Wow, the mannerisms?”
Whereas she could have solely seen it for the primary time Tuesday, Harris has not less than been conscious of the impression since its inception, when she gave Rudolph her props on social media and stated she felt “overwhelmed” being depicted on a present she was raised on.
Not everybody was as enthused by the caricature, nonetheless, or Harris’ go to to “The View.”
Howard Stern, who has mocked each demographic possible throughout his decadeslong tenure as a shock-jock radio host, reportedly advised Harris throughout their very own interview earlier that day that he “hate[s]” the caricature and doesn’t need Harris “being made fun of.”
“I believe the entire future of this country right now” is “literally on the line,” he added.
Former President Donald Trump, in the meantime, attacked Harris straight for her “View” look — and never solely claimed she “is being exposed as a ‘dummy’ every time she does a show,” but in addition slammed the “View” hosts as “degenerates” and “dumb women.”
Whereas current polling reveals Harris and Trump in a close to warmth for the election, Harris has been on a whirlwind media tour to vary that and appeared on “60 Minutes,” the “Call Her Daddy” podcast, “Late Night with Stephen Colbert” and different reveals in solely the final week.
