VP KamalaHarris's North Korea blunder latest in long line of awkward gaffes
The slip-up came during the vice president’s first visit to the DMZ on Thursday, where Harris vowed that the U.S. would support South Korea against the North Korean government. The gaffe was the latest in a string of blunders from the vice president during her time in office, providing fodder for her Republican critics and operatives.
Harris appeared to struggle for words while trying to explain why lawmakers failed to codify Roe v. Wade over the last five decades, instead suggesting that some things are “just settled.”Harris: “I think that, to be very honest with you, I do believe that we should have rightly believed what we certainly believe that certain issues are just settled.”pic.twitter.
“Together, we are expanding access to transportation. Seems like maybe it's a small issue, it's a big issue,” she said. “You need to get to go, and you to be able to get where you need to go, to do the work, and get home.”The vice president suffered another awkward speech delivery during a mental health and wellness event at Children’s National Hospital in May, repeating lines and making grammatical errors.
