Republican Sen. John Kennedy of Louisiana sarcastically remarked during a Saturday night appearance on Fox News that Vice President Kamala Harris could cause a polygraph machine to blow up by simply walking near it.
Harris has escalated attacks on former President Donald Trump, most recently labeling him a “fascist” during a CNN town hall on Wednesday. While speaking to Fox News’ Brian Kilmeade, Kennedy said that Harris is falling behind Trump because Americans are “uncertain” about what she would do if elected to the presidency.

“It’s worth examining why Vice President Harris is now behind,” Kennedy told Kilmeade. “I think she’s behind because of all her gauzy rhetoric. People are uncertain about her. They don’t know if she has the right stuff to be president. They’re worried that she doesn’t, they’re worried that she was that kid in grade school who ate paste, they just don’t know. She hasn’t — she won’t be pinned down, I think in some cases she’s lying. People are worried that if she walked by a polygraph machine, the dang thing would explode.”
“People want to know what their president is going to do,” Kennedy continued. “Now, I’ll tell you the other thing that’s changed in this race other than the vice president behind. Vice President Harris has adopted a new strategy. Joy is out. She’s adopted the Hillary Clinton deplorable strategy of 2016, which is if you vote for President Trump, you are a bad person.”
A July poll by YouGov for The Times showed that 54% of respondents believed that President Joe Biden’s health issues were covered up, with 68% of those respondents saying they felt Harris had “a lot” to do with concealing the truth about Biden’s health. Trump accused Harris of lying about working at McDonald’s as a teenager, and her campaign has yet to provide evidence suggesting that she did.
Harris has also reportedly backed away from left-wing positions she held during her campaign for the 2020 Democratic Party nomination for president, primarily through statements by campaign aides to reporters.
Trump leads Harris by 0.1% in the RealClearPolling average of polls from Oct. 11 to 26 and maintains that margin when Green Party candidate Dr. Jill Stein, independent candidate Cornel West, and Libertarian candidate Chase Oliver are included in surveys.
