Kamala Harris has recently come under scrutiny after a video of her delivering a Thanksgiving message sparked theories that she may have been under the influence of alcohol. The video, which was first aired on the Democrats official X page, showed the Vice President appearing bleary-eyed and slurring her words, leading to speculation about her sobriety.
Experts, including psychiatrist Dr. Carole Lieberman and emergency medicine doctor Dr. Stuart Fischer, have analyzed the video and pointed out signs that suggest Harris may have been drinking. They noted Harris’ half-closed eyes, slightly slurred speech, over-emphasized hand movements, and head movements as potential indicators of alcohol consumption.
Some social media users have even suggested that Harris may have been drowning her sorrows following her election loss to Donald Trump. However, experts also considered other factors such as exhaustion or embarrassment as possible explanations for her behavior.
Body language experts believe that Harris’ demeanor in the video could also be interpreted as an attempt to come across as likeable and express genuine emotion. It was noted that the video was released just days before Thanksgiving while Harris was in California for the holiday.
Harris had been on vacation in Hawaii before delivering the message, which may have contributed to her unconventional behavior. The experts also raised the possibility that Harris’ body language could have been influenced by side effects from medication she may be taking, such as sleeping pills.
Overall, the video of Harris delivering her Thanksgiving message has sparked a range of reactions, from concerns about her well-being to speculation about her state of mind. As the debate continues, it remains unclear whether Harris was indeed under the influence or if other factors were at play during the recording of the video.
