WATCH: Kamala Appears Dejected, Totally Exhausted In Newly Released Video
Despite all the hay made by Democrats about former President Donald Trump’s age, it appears Vice President Kamala Harris is the one running out of steam less than a week before Election Day.
The Trump War Room social media account shared a video of Harris, aboard an aircraft that appears to be one of the administration’s helicopters, yawning and staring off into space as an aide converses with her while working her phone. Trump’s campaign declared Harris is “cracking” after just three months as the Democratic Party’s nominee, a position she was “installed” into, it added. “Kamala is exhausted — cracking under the rigors of a presidential campaign after she was installed as a nominee who didn’t earn a single vote. Yikes!” read the post on X.

WATCH:
Just earlier this week, Harris, 60, was ripping Trump, 78, as “exhausted,” telling an Atlanta crowd that the former president is “more confused, more unstable, and more angry” than four years ago, The Hill reported. Former President Barack Obama carried the torch, calling his successor “older and loonier.” Despite the criticism, Obama certainly appeared less sanguine about Harris’s chances during a private discussion with President Joe Biden where the two could be seen frowning and giving clipped exchanges.
WATCH:
Before Biden dropped out, Republicans effectively hammered home the message that the sitting president, at 81, was too old for the rigors of a national campaign. After his exit, Democrats were optimistic that a more youthful Harris would be able to withstand the punishing schedule of a three-month campaign against a former president who had been campaigning since the middle of 2023. “There’s such a contrast between the youthful energy that she brings to this campaign and the joy that she brings to this campaign compared to him being a miserable old man,” Mike Nellis, a Democratic strategist and former senior adviser to Harris, told The Hill.
Now, however, it appears she is slowing down, an opinion shared by X users. “I’m not surprised seeing her like that. Spreading lies and hate all day wears you out,” one wrote. “Poor lady. No one should be burdened with so much garbage,” another wrote in reference to Biden’s claim on Tuesday that Trump’s supporters are “garbage.”
I'm not surprised seeing her like that. Spreading lies and hate all day wears you out.

Even before she jumped into the race, Harris was known as a demanding, sometimes emotionally turbulent boss who suffered from high staff turnover during the early years of the Biden-Harris administration. Those problems followed her from the U.S. Senate, which included one high-profile instance where a staffer departed her office alleging unresolved sexual harassment, Politico previously reported.
