I mean, this just isn't true. She's extremely educated and well-spoken. Generally I think the attacks on her intelligence come from her being a black woman - I have doubts anyone would question her high qualifications if she was a white man.

EDIT: If you're going to downvote me I expect at least some explanation of how she is uneducated, unqualified, or not articulate. I have yet to see any, from anyone, which unfortunately leaves me no choice but to make unfavorable assumptions.

If your opinion is not fueled by racism or sexism, that should be extraordinarily easy to prove, and you should be motivated to do so.



Yes, noticing her word salad is racism.


What word salad? You can't just make things up. Even republicans can admit that she is pretty well-spoken. Lying about her doesn't make you look better, it actually makes you look worse.

I’m hardly the first to notice it. Just google, there are lots of examples. Here’s one. https://m.youtube.com/shorts/zgifVPolWi8


First off, I am perfectly able to understand what she means. Perhaps it was not the most eloquent way to put it, but I understood every word and the sentence made sense.

Secondly, I can match your examples 1000 to 1 of times she was very well-spoken. One example, one in which she does not stutter or mispronounce any words, means nothing. I know you know it means nothing. She has spoken so, so, so many times throughout her career.


Perhaps she would've better served learning Trump's "weave".

As far as word salads go, Kamala side salad doesn't compare to Trump's Seinfeld "Big Salad".


I think the uncomfortable truth that people will try and rationalize away with all sorts of smart sounding reasons is that if Harris had been a white man she would have had a much better chance at beating Trump. Specifically with regards to speaking or intelligence every minor trip up is highlighted for Harris while Trump is so much worse in frequency yet gets a pass.


To be generous I will assume you just haven't seen enough of her.

This is just one of dozens of examples that have convinced me personally that she's legitimately not the brightest lightbulb out there:
