Kamala Harris has faced difficulty throughout the campaign for her fondness of a bottle or two after (or seemingly before) a hard day’s work.

Republican opponents have pointed to the Vice President as exemplifying alcoholism with slurred speeches, manic cackling and a general odd demeanor during her public appearances. It’s all speculation, of course – but would it really surprise anyone at this point?
Harris’ public reputation for her fondness of alcohol even saw her the subject of a Saturday Night Live sketch, where a brilliantly accurate portrayal mocked her horror at running mate Tim Walz’s school shooter comment at the vice presidential debate.
“This is what happens when I drink beer,” Harris reportedly said after calling rival Donald Trump a “loser.” Ironically, Harris works for someone who had to be forced out of the race to avoid certain defeat – also known as a “loser.”
The Vice President’s accusations are comparably heightened given that neither Trump nor President Joe Biden touch alcohol.
