Footage has surfaced on social media showing Kamala Harris emphasizing her belief that the woke ideology is a good thing society should embrace. After President Biden announced last month that he would be withdrawing from the 2024 race, Vice President Kamala has stepped up as the party’s nominee heading into November, bringing her radical, progressive stances into question.
Speaking at Recode’s annual conference in 2017 with prominent philanthropist Laurene Powell Jobs, the widow of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, Harris maintained her affinity for wokeness. “You know, we have to stay WOKE like everybody needs to be woke. And you can talk about, if you’re the wokeist or woke just stay more woke than less woke. You know, we have to stay WOKE like everybody needs to be woke,” she said.
As the clip made rounds on social media, it garnered various responses from conservatives. Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk even commented on the video, asking in disbelief, “Is this real?” with laughing emojis. Musk recently spoke about his commitment to eradicating the “woke mind virus.” The Tesla founder said, “I vowed to destroy the woke mind virus after that…and we are making some progress.”
Throughout Joe Biden’s presidency, Kamala Harris received little attention on her policy stances, given the mostly ceremonial role of the vice presidency. However, since she secured the Democratic Party’s nomination for the presidency, Americans are taking a serious look at her stances, given the serious prospect of her leading the nation.
Shark Tank star Kevin O’Leary has been one of Harris’ most prominent critics recently, suggesting that the vice president would destroy America in a similar manner that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has to Canada. “There’s an example of an ‘it kid’ up in Canada a few years ago, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Nobody looked at his background, nobody looked at his policies. He was the ‘it kid.’ That country is on its knees! He wiped it out!” Mr. Wonderful said.
“Are Americans basically going to hire or basically bring a president that’s another Justin Trudeau?” He then added, “I hope not,” he continued, urging American voters to seriously consider the ramifications of their choice in November.
The Tribune also reported on comments from Sen. Tom Cotton, who blasted Vice President Harris as a “San Francisco Liberal” who would not be able to keep Americans safe. Cotton said, “Under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, everything has gone to hell, and it will be much worse under Kamala Harris, just look at her record. She wants to ban private health insurance. She wants to ban fossil fuel production. She wants to ban guns. She wants, even wants to ban plastic,” he said.

The Republican senator also stated, “Only a week into her presidential campaign and we see why she is a dangerous, liberal. I saw Kamala Harris up close for four years on the Senate Intelligence Committee. What the American people see this week is just a small sampling of what she would do to make America less safe and make the world more chaotic. Remember, she took credit for a lot of the worst decisions of the Biden administration she said, you were right there when they decided on the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan. This is who Kamala Harris always has been. This is who she will be a San Francisco liberal who cannot keep this country safe.”
