Former NFL star Antonio Brown and Outkick founder Clay Travis blasted Kamala Harris after she posted a seemingly tipsy Thanksgiving message.
The Democratic party’s official X account released the 28-second clip giving an emotional message that some users construed as “tipsy.”
“I just have to remind you, don’t you ever let anybody take your power from you,” Harris began while squinting.
“You have the same power that you did before November 5th. And you have the same purpose that you did,” she rambled. “And you have the same ability to engage and inspire.”

“So don’t ever let anybody or any circumstance take your power from you,” Harris concluded with a shake of her head.
Brown, a Trump supporter who is known to be a hilarious Twitter troll, questioned if Harris was drinking during the filming.
“I swear to drunk I’m not God,” Brown captioned a screenshot of Harris looking unhinged.

In another post, Brown referred to her as a “drunk auntie on Thanksgiving.”
Travis tagged in, writing, “Kamala with a message for her voters. Man, I really hope she runs again. Worst. Candidate. Ever.”
“In the future, Kamala being an actual presidential nominee from a major party is going to be like when you remind people Rex Grossman was once a Super Bowl starting quarterback,” he said in a football-related follow-up.
“They are just going to refuse to believe you even if they saw it happen.”

Brown and Travis weren’t the only commenters to pick up on Harris’ odd demeanor.
“Have you been drinking?” Actor Kevin Sorbo replied to the post.
“She sounds and looks extremely drunk,” conservative X user Clown World tweeted.
“I’m not sure you guys want to be amplifying this. There’s something, ummmm, off with the vice president,” Fox News contributor Joe Concha added.

“No video like this would ever have been released by a politician who is not hated by her staff,” Senior National Review Online writer Dan McLaughlin pointed out.
“Who thought this was a good idea? Who is this for? What is this for? What is she even saying? Once again, I will reiterate that we are ruled by imbeciles,” Atlantic writer Tyler Austin Harper questioned.
“They wouldn’t let her go on @joerogan but they let her do this,” Terry Schilling added along with a facepalm emoji.

“The joy is gone,” the Republican Committee of Prince William County hilariously joked.
“Is Kamala Harris drunk?” someone else added. “It’s kinda funny, she’s trying to sound inspiring but ends up saying absolutely nothing.”
“Why would the Democrats put this video out of a clearly drunk Kamala?? They want her career over,” comedian Tim Young observed.

The Daily Mail asked an emergency medicine doctor to weigh in on whether Harris had been drinking before recording the message.
“She’s not royally drunk, but that’s definitely the right word [tipsy],” said New York City ER doctor Stuart Fishcer.
“She has slightly slurred speech and there was also this head movement, a kind of bobbing movement like you are calmed down by an intoxicant but you still have to give a serious speech,” he pointed out.

“I don’t think this is exhaustion or anything else, no, this is not merely days later, this is days and days after the election.”
Dr Fischer noted that Harris paused and closed her eyes during the video.
People who have been drinking often blink at a slower rate than those who have not imbibed, as drinking slows down the reflex.
He also pointed out that she held her hands to her chest to an extended period of time, which is a sign that Harris had imbibed alcohol prior to filming.
Social media users didn’t need a medical degree to surmise Harris was on the sauce.
“She’s still hammered from election night,” someone posted.
“Liberals come get Mamala, she’s drunk again,” another added.
