Is KamalaHQ officially associated with her and is this an official statement? I see their TikTok page a lot and its very memey/jokey. It feel an like it's adjacent (run by an intern or campaign staffer or something), but I'm not sure if this is really "Kamala Harris's Statement".
I opened the threads profile, it says it's official
Thanks! I still think it's a statement by her campaign and not her, but I guess that's splitting hairs.
Technically it's signed Harris Walz.
Technically it has their campaign logo on it. ;) Yeah I know I'm being annoying. Obviously this statement is associated with her and the campaign in an official manner. It just doesn't have the polish I would expect from a politician's official statement. That's all. I'm probably reading too much into it.
I think it's a huge part of the Democrats' collective messaging, which they really sucked at previously. They're very purposely ratcheting up from their Ben Stein levels of excitement, and I think it's resonating with people.
There’s a comment in this thread commending the casual, non-robotic tone of the messaging.
Such a low bar, right?
I think that's an intentional choice by her campaign. I've seen other stuff by KamalaHQ that has the same tone. It's smart. More relatable is better.
It sounds like a kid wrote it, it's bad.
That's not fully correct. @VP seems to be her official threads, while the OP says
whatever that means. So I'm still not fully convinced this is an officially statement from Harris herself.
Not sure. I think Kamala would be smart enough to call the site Twitter.
Well the fact it doesn't once say 'Kamala Harris' throughout the entire statement, I'd say you're correct.
