Memes about Kamala Harris are spreading with a speed and enthusiasm previously unseen on X and Instagram.</p><p><a href="https://x.com/OsseChi/status/1808522204381901040">Supercuts of her set</a> to RuPaulâs Call Me Mother. Threads of her â<a href="https://x.com/bailey_s26/status/1808313176402153792">funniest Veep moments</a>â. <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C8-Hz0dyOgH/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link">Collages</a> of jokes about her over a green album cover a la Charli xcxâs Brat. Numerous riffs on a comment she made about a coconut tree. Previous progressive snark about Harris has cast her either as an incompetent sidekick a la HBOâs Veep or as an anti-progressive cop, a reference to her years as Californiaâs top law enforcement official. But as rumors circle about discussions of Biden dropping out of the presidential race, social media commentary on the nationâs second-in-command has grown more positive â even if ironically so.</p> <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/jul/05/kamala-harris-memes-coconut-tree">Continue reading...</a></description> <category domain="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/kamala-harris">Kamala Harris</category> <category domain="https://www.theguardian.com/technology/internet">Internet</category> <category domain="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/us-politics">US politics</category> <category domain="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/joebiden">Joe Biden</category> <category domain="https://www.theguardian.com/technology/technology">Technology</category> <category domain="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/us-news">US news</category> <category domain="https://www.theguardian.com/media/social-media">Social media</category> <pubDate>Fri, 05 Jul 2024 12:17:32 GMT</pubDate> <guid>https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/jul/05/kamala-harris-memes-coconut-tree</guid> <media:content width="140" url="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/e36de4356f01bb9a57ece6f4d738a8fdf08f7c90/0_309_5935_3561/master/5935.jpg?width=140&quality=85&auto=format&fit=max&s=799002df36aa0b663b64caab0abd7f79"> <media:credit scheme="urn:ebu">Photograph: Rebecca Noble/Reuters</media:credit> </media:content> <media:content width="460" url="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/e36de4356f01bb9a57ece6f4d738a8fdf08f7c90/0_309_5935_3561/master/5935.jpg?width=460&quality=85&auto=format&fit=max&s=614621ffd8841530ad62fee2e659ebe7"> <media:credit scheme="urn:ebu">Photograph: Rebecca Noble/Reuters</media:credit> </media:content> <dc:creator>Blake Montgomery</dc:creator> <dc:date>2024-07-05T12:17:32Z</dc:date> </item>
