“The Daily Show,” typically known for attacking Conservatives, took surprising aim at Vice President Kamala Harris‘s word salads during public speeches and interviews this week.
In a three-minute and 42-second segment called “Meet the ‘Holistic Thought Advisor’ Behind Kamala Harris’s Speeches,” the show ripped into the VP.
“Daily Show” correspondent Desi Lydic played a character named Dahlia Rose Hibiscus, whose role in the Biden administration is to assist Harris in making herself appear foolish.
Harris has become known for leaving her audiences confused, and Ms. “Hibiscus” claimed to have the answer.
Lydic noted the time Harris declared, “You need to get to go, and need to be able to get where you need to go to do the work – and get home.”
Another one of Harris’ lowlights was her statement, “It is time for us to get to do what we have been doing, and that time is every day.”

The show also played Harris’ infamous “passage of time” remarks from Louisiana in March 2022 in which she stated:
“The Governor and I and we were all doing a tour of the library here and talking about the significance of the passage of time. Right? The significance of the passage of time. So, when you think about it, there is great significance to the passage of time in terms of what we need to do to lay these wires…”
Lydic concluded by airing clips of Harris and her word salads, and in the character of Hibiscus, claimed she was behind the vice president’s public speaking troubles.
The comedian, while still in character, said Harris had come “far” on her journey to becoming an abhorrent public speaker.
“I lead the vice president on not so much sentences as idea voyages,” Lydic’s character said.
The show then presented an “ad lib” sheet that it implied Harris uses for her nonsensical statements.
“It’s a process I call speaking without thinking,” Lydic said in character.
“It’s not about the destination of the thought, it’s about the journey and how many words you use to describe the journey.”
Lydic’s character said once she receives a completed speech ready for Harris to deliver, she removes every word and retreats to a “word cave” to determine “what order the universe wants them to be in.”
“I hear the counterarguments all the time; people should be able to understand what their leaders are saying when they talk,” the comedian concluded.
“I prefer to leave Kamala’s thoughts open to interpretation like a work of modern art that you look at and go, ‘I wonder what that was all about.'”
