Republicans have increased their attacks on her in recent days Democrats have “got to choose between a mentally incompetent president and a DEI vice president,” Texas Republican Rep Chip Roy recently told Fox Business. Texas Rep Ronny Jackson, who also served as Trump’s White House physician, blasted Harris: “She has got to be the lowest IQ vice president that this country has ever had.” Failed GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy also claimed Harris had a “low IQ.” Harris speaks to members of the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center on July 10, 2024 in Dallas, Texas Despite serving as vice president for more than three years, others have attacked her competence and qualifications. “Those are pretty common tropes that we see used against women.” Speaking on “Pod Save America” on Wednesday, former Biden White House press secretary Jen Psaki chalked up Harris’ lack of popularity to the fact that “we live in a country that is sexist and racist.” Biden andHarris raise their hands as they stand on a White House balcony on July 4th In the face of discriminatory comments, Harris has been climbing the polls, indicating she has a better chance than Biden of defeating Trump in a hypothetical matchup.
