Vice President Kamala Harris caused a wave of criticism on social media after appearing to suddenly use a southern accent during a speech in Atlanta. "You all helped us win in 2020 and we gonna do it again in 2024," Harris, who is from California, told Atlanta rally goers while seemingly debuting the new accent. The accent immediately caught the attention of critics on social media, who accused the presumptive Democratic nominee of pandering to her audience.

Did she learn this from Hellary? She does a excruciating fake southern accent, too.

I'm surprised she isn't dressing like Angela Davis - with a giant 1970s Afro.

I was born in California, but lived in the south from mid grade school through college and grad school. I have a pretty much neutral, sort of midwestern accent. However....when I lived in the south, I did pick up a bit of a southern accent, but it's pretty much gone after 45 years in the midwest. And my parents were from the midwest, A lot of my relatives live in the south, now.
It seems insulting to do this, especially if you are totally faking it. If I were to slip into it when in Georgia or Mississippi where relatives live....it wouldn't be out of character, just slipping back into old speech patterns of my youth. But for Harris, this is a total fake.

Dems are good at being condescending and insulting to their listeners. Talking with a fake accent is presumptive. It’s like a gringo talking “Spanish” by saying “el fake-o.”

It is difficult to insult the intelligence of an audience when they have none.

They're all the same fakes. Like their father the devil, they have no new ideas.

Had a GOP candidate tried this, the legacy networks would be raking them over the coals every day until an apology (or even a withdrawal) occurred. Everything about her past is being reworked, even her sleazy affair with Willie Brown. ("they dated", when they had an affair, one that should be noted as "sexual assault" given today's standards of workplace propriety).

Just as any true Southerner can tell if an actor was born and raised here when we see them on the screen using one of our many and varied accents, we also can spot a counterfeit lying dog a mile away.

Cultural appropriation. She should be forced to resign immediately.
