She recorded the podcast, popular among young female listeners, on Tuesday, October 1. The episode is scheduled to be released next week, although the exact day has not been specified by the campaign.

The user wrote, "While the death toll in North Carolina continues to rise, residents see their family members hanging in trees, and aid is actively being blocked by FEMA, Kamala Harris decided to film an episode of “Call Her Daddy”"



 

One commented, "Kamala Harris is SHOWING US she doesn’t care. She’s just here for the perks."



 

Another called Harris appearance on podcast as, "That’s disgraceful. And a testament to where our “culture” as a country has fallen."

"Kamala showed how much she hates American citizens," a critic remarked.



 

A person stated, "Oh my gosh. She is disturbingly cold"
