LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Vice President Kamala Harris talked about Latina small businesses in America in a joint post shared by actress Jessica Alba.

However, the video soon went viral over the Democratic presidential nominee’s word salad.

Harris talked about the dreams and aspirations of the people, and how they lack the capital to fulfill them.

"I believe strongly that our small businesses are the backbone of America's economy. So when we grow and strengthen small businesses, we all benefit," Harris added.

Many users joked about Harris’ choice of words, and the clueless expression on Jessica Alba’s face while hearing her.

“Latina small businesses are the fastest growing in the country—and when we grow and strengthen them, we all benefit,” the actress captioned the video.

Jessica Alba was also present during President Joe Biden's speech on honoring National Hispanic Heritage Month on September 18. 

Biden shared a light moment with the star, thanking Alba before he added, "She's an actor, producer, advocate, author, and she knows how to build companies," reported Newsweek.

He then leaned closer to the mic and said, "Jessica, if I'm really good, maybe you can get me a job!" as the crowd cheered.

One chimed, "The one who asked a question pretending to be amazed 🤣."

"You can't let this woman go anywhere without a teleprompter," another user trolled Harris.

"Just let her keep on talking. Kamala Harris is her own worst enemy," penned an individual.

Someone else said, "Everytime she opens her mouth she recruits Trump/Vance voters."

Another poked fun at Harris, "Name one thing she said that implements and accomplishes anything towards reaching these goals. There are none. Just platitudes and aspirations. It's drunk Hallmark gibberish."

One person trolled, "I think he’d ideas just fell out of a coconut tree, or maybe she was hit in the head by a coconut."

"Kamala just attempted to talk about the economy without a script. Train wreck," another posted
