“The Daily Show,” a left-leaning Comedy Central program, recently took aim at Vice President Kamala Harris’s frequent use of confusing and nonsensical language during public speeches and interviews. In a three-minute segment called “Meet the ‘Holistic Thought Advisor’ Behind Kamala Harris’s Speeches,” the show mocked the vice president’s tendency to deliver word salads by presenting a character named “Dahlia Rose Hibiscus” as the mastermind behind Harris’s confusing rhetoric.
The segment highlighted some of Harris’s most baffling statements, such as when she stated, “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 lowlight was when she said, “It is time for us to get to do what we have been doing, and that time is every day.” These comments were accompanied by a satirical “ad-lib” sheet, which the show implied Harris uses to concoct her convoluted statements.
Lydic, in character as “Hibiscus,” claimed responsibility for Harris’s public speaking troubles, stating, “I lead the vice president on not so much sentences as idea voyages.” She further explained her process of “speaking without thinking,” which she believes is more about the journey of the words rather than the destination. Lydic’s character even retreats to a “word cave” to determine the proper order of the words, likening it to deciphering the order of the universe.
The comedian then defended Harris’s perplexing language, saying, “I hear the counterarguments all the time; people should be able to understand what their leaders are saying when they talk,” adding, “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.'” The segment ended with a suggestion that the show’s writers may be trying to undermine Harris and President Joe Biden in the hopes of a more popular Democratic candidate for the upcoming election.
This begs the question, what is the motive behind “The Daily Show” mocking Harris? Is it simply for comedic purposes, or is there a deeper agenda at play? It’s no secret that the far left is calculated, and the fact that a major outlet for the Democratic Party is now targeting Harris with merciless satire raises suspicions.

But there is a more significant issue at hand: the vice president of the United States is being openly ridiculed for her inability to communicate clearly. This should be a cause for concern not only for Democrats but for all citizens. The fact that Harris, who is believed to be a potential future presidential candidate, may have hired a “holistic” advisor to help her speak is alarming and suggestive of deeper issues.
Ultimately, “The Daily Show’s” segment on Harris is both humorous and concerning. While the jokes may elicit laughter, the idea that a key member of our government may require a team of experts to make her speeches coherent is alarming. One can only hope that those in positions of power, like Harris, can confidently and clearly convey their thoughts and ideas to the American people, without the need for a “holistic thought advisor.”
