Kamala Harris isn’t exactly a poet or a Pericles…
She isn’t even a carnival barker by most standards, and due to this glaring inadequacy in her public speaking she needs someone to write her speeches for her…
Kamala isn’t unique in that sense though—most high profile politicians employ a speech writer, but this is likely due to a lack of time, not skill.
Harris, who has no qualifications whatsoever to run an ice cream stand, let alone the Office of Vice President, recently contributed this little gem to the annals of American political discourse:
Can somebody tell @VP she needs new speech writers? https://t.co/YzzmE5suPZ

Yeah, it’s that bad and worse, but I digress….
Recent reports indicate that Harris’ current speech writer, Kate Childs Graham, will be replaced by none other than Meghan Groob—Bill Gates‘ former speech writer.
I don’t know whether to laugh or cry at this, take a look:
⚠️Fox News: Meghan Groob will be Kamala Harris’s next chief speechwriter. Meghan most recently worked as the Editorial Director at Gates Ventures, where she was a speechwriter for Bill Gates

The list of sacrificial lambs blamed for @VP @KamalaHarris continued embarrassing engagements on the world stage continue to grow. Hope Meghan Groob doesn’t get too comfortable in her job. https://t.co/HBmD7kTQuM

Reuters confirmed:
Harris is also hiring a new chief speechwriter, Meghan Groob.
She most recently worked as an editorial director at Gates Ventures, where she was a speechwriter to Bill Gates, according to a separate memo sent to staff seen by Reuters.
She was previously a senior speechwriter in the Obama administration.
VP “is grateful for Michael’s tireless work, leadership, and the many miles he traveled domestically and internationally as we lifted up families and strengthened relationships with allies abroad. Our entire team will miss Michael as he begins this next chapter.”-@JamalSimmons46

Fox News notes the reactions of those who poked fun at Harris for the recent word salad she made during a press event with the Jamaican PM:
Harris was panned on social media for what they described as “word salad.”
“Ok seriously, is she punking us?” asked Abigail Marone, press secretary of Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., “Like it has to be a joke at this point.”
“This is the definition of ‘word salad.’ It’s practically word goulash,” David Martosko of Daily Mail TV quipped.
