Laura Ingraham Slams Kamala Harris' 'Insulting' Campaign Premise

Fox News host Laura Ingraham accused the media of sheltering Vice President Kamala Harris ahead of the election and called her campaign premise "insulting to women."

Fox News host Laura Ingraham has launched a scathing attack on Vice President Kamala Harris, accusing her of running for office on a "insulting to women" premise. Ingraham, a vocal critic of Harris, made the remarks during a segment on her show, "The Ingraham Angle."

Ingraham began her attack by referencing the iconic Helen Reddy song "I Am Woman," which became an anthem for the women's liberation movement in the 1970s. She argued that Harris' campaign should have embodied the spirit of the song, representing strong, independent women who could lead in any field.

However, Ingraham contended that Harris' actual campaign has fallen short of these expectations. She accused Harris of portraying herself as a strong female force but failing to deliver on that promise. Ingraham pointed to Harris' poor performance in key demographic groups, particularly white male voters, as evidence of this failure.

Ingraham went on to argue that Harris' entire campaign premise was "insulting to women." She claimed that Harris was exploiting her status as the first female vice president to gain votes rather than running on her qualifications or ability to lead.

"This isn't what we expected of our first female vice president — certainly, not what we expected for our first female president," Ingraham said. "We want strong, smart and never afraid to answer a question — but her entire campaign, her entire premise for running, is insulting to women."

Ingraham's comments were met with both support and criticism on social media. Some viewers agreed with her assessment of Harris' campaign, while others accused her of bias and sexism.

Harris' campaign has not yet responded to Ingraham's remarks.

In addition to her criticisms of Harris, Ingraham also took aim at the media for supposedly sheltering the vice president from criticism. She accused the media of ignoring Harris' failures and giving her an easy pass on controversial issues.

Ingraham's comments come as Harris faces an uphill battle in the upcoming election. Recent polls show her lagging behind other Democratic candidates and struggling to connect with key voters. It remains to be seen whether Ingraham's criticisms of Harris' campaign will have any impact on the outcome of the election.
