Kamala Harris is less than skilled with her words—let’s just leave it at that for now.
The Vice President lacks political and diplomatic experience—especially in the foreign arena and it shows. This week, Harris headed to the ASEAN Summit in Indonesia to represent the United States.
This reportedly ruffled more than a few feathers as world leaders were expecting Joe Biden, who is currently in the region, to attend the summit.
Harris has long been touted as a potential replacement for Biden and she recently claimed that she was ready to take over for him.
Of course, almost everyone knows that a Harris Presidency would be a disaster—even the Democrats who initially pushed for a potential Harris Presidency, and her comments at ASEAN showcase that perfectly:
RNC Research commented: “Biden decided to skip the ASEAN Summit in Indonesia, so Kamala Harris — the least competent vice president in modern history — is there instead.”

The Associated Press writes:
This latest journey is another opportunity for Harris to burnish her foreign policy credentials as she prepares for a bruising campaign year.
She’s already come under attack from Republican presidential candidates who say she’s unprepared to step up if Biden, the oldest U.S. president in history, can’t finish a second term.
Fox News host Jesse Watters unpacked Harris’ appearance at ASEAN explained: “The new Biden biography is portraying Kamala as picky, petty and insecure. Biden didn’t put much stock at all into Kamala’s political future and is running for re-election because he believes Kamala would get smoked in a general election.”
After a month off, Kamala Harris gave us a preview of what a Harris presidency would look like, after she was put in charge at the ASEAN Summit in Indonesia. She broke some big news: Joe Biden is just fine (not great though) and she is ready to take over the job of President.… pic.twitter.com/h02hls8K31

According to Daily Caller:
Biden’s decision not to attend the meeting in Jakarta was slammed by critics as a “missed opportunity” to improve diplomatic ties with Indonesia, which boasts ASEAN’s largest economy.
Biden’s absence is all the more glaring since Jakarta officials reportedly took steps to align ASEAN’s meeting calendar with Biden’s planned travel to the G20 summit.
