Correction: This article has been corrected to provide additional context for Harris’s remarks. Her remarks came from a 2014 speech where she spoke a about forgiving young people for low-level crimes.
Biden’s running mate Kamala Harris doesn’t think highly of young voters.
Old Joe is struggling to connect with young voters (Bernie Bros) and a 2015 video of Kamala Harris calling 18 to 24 year olds “really stupid” sure isn’t helping.
“What do we know about 18 to 24 year olds? They are really stupid… they make really bad decisions,” Kamala Harris said at a symposium hosted by the Ford Foundation while she was California Attorney General.

Zoomers on Tik Tok really don’t want the Democrats to make them vote for Joe Biden.
“Please don’t make me vote for Joe Biden” — yet Biden chose Kamala Harris to be his running mate, the same cop who locked up young people for smoking pot. Her remarks regarding the stupid and bad decisions young people make do not align terribly well with her record as San Francisco’s district attorney and then California’s attorney general. Harris earned a reputation as a tough-on-crime prosecutor and resisted calls for criminal justice reform.
Great move, Joe.

A new-ish trend I’ve noticed: Tiktok teens (many of whom are approaching or are of voting age) really don’t want you to “make them vote for Joe Biden.” The most popular version of this video has over 277k likes. pic.twitter.com/02VXE9InzC
