children, says Marc Thiessen
'Outnumbered' reacts after VP Harris gives puzzling remarks about AI, transportation

Marc Thiessen on Kamala Harris' unpopularity: Americans think she's 'talking down' to them
'Outnumbered' panelists discuss the vice president's approval after her latest comments on transportation and artificial intelligence.

Fox News contributor Marc Thiessen argued Vice President Kamala Harris' abysmal
approval rating is due, in part, to how she speaks to the American public. On
"Outnumbered" on Thursday, Thiessen responded to a montage of Harris' confusing
statements by arguing that the VP "has a habit" of speaking as if she's talking to children.

HISTORY

MARC THIESSEN: Why is she so unpopular? One may be that none of the issues she's
taken on, like the border or anything else, she hasn't made any progress and so part of that
is the failure of the administration. But the other thing is that she has this habit of talking
about the most mundane things in this deeply profound voice. And when people hear that,
when people hear her say, Transportation is about getting people to the place they want to
‘

go,’ and says it in such a profound way, they think one of two things. Either they think she's
stupid or they think, 'She thinks I'm stupid.' People don't like to be talked to like a child. And
so either they just lose confidence in her or they think she's talking down to them, and that
makes her profoundly unpopular.

NBC News on Monday reported that Vice President Harris has the dubious distinction of
having the lowest net-negative rating of modern vice presidents in the history of their
polling.

According to a new NBC News poll, only 32% of registered voters have a positive view of
Harris, compared to 49% with a negative view, including 39% with a "very negative view."
This leaves Harris with a net -17 rating, which the outlet noted is "the lowest for any vice
president in the poll’s history."

Harris' -17 net rating lined up against the last four vice presidents during their tenures, with
Mike Pence -4 in October 2019, Joe Biden +1 in December 2010, Dick Cheney +23 in May
2003 and Al Gore +15 in March 1995.

The poll comes as Harris faces a fresh round of ridicule for her explanation of AI.
