Vice President Kamala Harris appeared with former first lady Michelle Obama in a video posted to social media in which the two implored Americans to vote — ostensibly for Harris.

Some observers online suggested that the video looked a little cringey given that Obama is so much taller than Harris, towering over the Democratic nominee.

Other users said they had indeed voted already, but for Harris’ GOP opponent, former President Donald Trump.

Meanwhile, fear appears to be taking hold in Harris’ campaign, and the enthusiasm is waning as prominent Democratic lawmakers and the liberal media are being compelled to publicly recognize that the campaign is struggling in its final stretch.

The change in attitudes comes following a couple of weeks’ worth of bad PR, bad interviews, and positive developments regarding her GOP opponent, former President Donald Trump, the latest of which was a bombshell three-hour interview with top podcaster Joe Rogan, which, as of this writing, has been viewed more than 37 million times.

One Democratic strategist admitted to The Hill: “Yes, it’s close, but are things trending our way? No. And no one wants to openly admit that. Could we still win? Maybe. Should anyone be even slightly optimistic right now? No.”

While some have pointed out that Harris is taking risks by partnering with Liz Cheney and holding rallies in red Texas in the final weeks of the campaign, another strategist bluntly stated, “If this is a vibe election, the current vibes ain’t great.”

Team Harris clearly aimed to make strides with her exclusive town hall alongside CNN’s Anderson Cooper in swing state Pennsylvania, which replaced a debate that Trump declined to attend. However, Harris’s failure to deliver clear answers on both domestic and foreign policy, combined with her trademark meandering responses throughout the 90-minute session, prompted even CNN’s left-leaning panelists to criticize her afterward, DailyMail.com reported.

Veteran Democratic strategist David Axelrod, who played a key role in Barack Obama’s election and served as one of his top advisers, described Harris’s performance as “word salad city.”

Van Jones, another prominent CNN commentator and former Obama administration official, echoed Axelrod’s sentiment.

“The word salad stuff gets on my nerves,” Jones bluntly admitted after the interview, adding: “I think some of the evasions are not necessary.”

CNN’s Dana Bash said of Harris afterward that “if her goal was to close the deal, they’re not sure she did that.”

Some of Harris’ responses even frustrated fellow Democrats, particularly when she aligned herself with Trump’s former Chief of Staff John Kelly, who reiterated his assertion this week that the former president sought to govern as a fascist — even though Kelly remained with Trump until the then-president fired him.

Some Democrats, including New York City Mayor Eric Adams, have ripped Harris and her allies for using such dark rhetoric.

“I have had those comments hurled at me by some political leaders in the city; my answer is ‘No,’” Adams said on Friday after he was asked about those criticisms of Trump, the New York Post reported.

“I know what Hitler has done, and I know what a fascist regime looks like. I think, as I have called for over and over again, that the level of conversation, I think we can all dial down the temperature,” Adams, a moderate Dem who is currently facing federal corruption charges, noted further.
