HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT: In the latest episode of 'The Megyn Kelly Show' podcast, journalist Megyn Kelly did not mince words as she unleashed a candid and unfiltered critique of Vice President Kamala Harris, per OK Magazine.

The podcast segment, aired on January 17, saw Kelly mockingly dub Harris as "so smart" before dissecting the Vice President's recent speeches, particularly her comments on Generation Z and the recurring catchphrase that has become synonymous with her public addresses.

The internet swiftly responded, with users expressing their disdain for Harris.



 

Megyn Kelly's harsh critique of Kamala Harris' recent speeches

Kelly, known for her candid commentary, sarcastically labeled Harris as "so smart" and "so clever" before delving into a critique of the politician's recent speeches.

In the podcast episode aired on January 17, Kelly played snippets of Harris expressing her admiration for Generation Z, born between 1997 and 2012.

In a recent speech, Harris praised Gen Z, saying, "For the older adults, this is gonna be a humbling thing. If someone is 18 years old today, they were born in 2005. Oh yeah, check that out. Think about that for a minute."



 

"The problem with Kamala Harris — many, many, many problems — she really is unburdened by a high IQ," Kelly remarked, asserting her opinion that Harris lacks intellectual depth.

Kelly didn't stop there, further criticizing Harris for being a "race provocateur" akin to MSNBC anchor Joy Reid in "a different suit."

She also took issue with the vice president's frequent use of the phrase "saw what could be, unburdened by what had been," playing a reel of Harris repeatedly uttering the line.

"She says it all the time. You would think her speech writers would say 'Madam, you've said that too many times. Nobody knows what the eff you're talking about,'" Kelly said. "But she keeps saying it over and over."

Highlighting what she sees as a lack of substance in Harris's speeches, Kelly stated, "She has no profundities to offer, and it's very clear to all of us. And she could very well be our next president if Joe Biden gets reelected."

Finally, a sixth user critiqued Harris' attempt at profundity, commenting, "She thinks she is being profound yet looks insane!!"
