In a stunning revelation that has sent shockwaves across the nation, Vice President Kamala Harris has been declared, quite literally, too stupid to shovel manure. That’s right, folks. The woman just a heartbeat away from the presidency is apparently unqualified for one of the most basic tasks known to man: handling a shovel and moving some, well, crap. And let’s be honest, if there’s one thing we thought she’d be good at, it’s shoveling heaps of nonsense.
After the news broke, the situation quickly became the metaphor that writes itself. As the country grapples with inflation, a border crisis, and foreign policy blunders, it’s almost poetic that Harris can’t even manage the one thing many believed was her strong suit—slinging you-know-what.
The Great Manure Mishap: Kamala’s Shovel Struggle
Reports of Harris’s failed manure-handling incident surfaced during a photo-op at a local farm, where the vice president was supposed to demonstrate her ability to relate to everyday Americans. The idea was simple: show up, grab a shovel, toss some dirt (or, in this case, manure), and flash that signature cackle. Easy, right? Not for Kamala.
Witnesses claim that the vice president struggled to even lift the shovel, let alone put it to any productive use. After a few comical attempts at scooping, the shovel appeared to have won the battle. Flustered, she eventually gave up, laughing awkwardly as the situation deteriorated faster than her approval ratings.
“Shoveling manure isn’t exactly rocket science,” one farmer said, scratching his head. “But she made it look like brain surgery. I mean, I guess it takes a certain level of skill to mess it up that bad.”
The fact that a woman who climbed her way to the second-highest office in the land couldn’t complete a task that most teenagers with a summer job can handle is almost too fitting. Then again, considering how she’s handled (or mishandled) the border crisis, maybe we should have seen this coming.
Political “Skills” in the Real World: A Whole New Level of Incompetence
Now, the manure fiasco could have been an amusing footnote in Harris’s already colorful tenure. But the incident quickly turned into a symbol of her entire political career. If she can’t handle a shovel, how exactly is she supposed to handle real-world issues? It’s one thing to stumble over a tricky policy question during a debate; it’s another to trip over a pile of horse manure.
The Democrats were, of course, quick to downplay the incident, with a spokesperson claiming the shovel was “unusually heavy” and that the manure was “more compact than expected.” Sure, because obviously the tools of the agricultural trade were conspiring against her. Perhaps next time she can blame gravity.
Meanwhile, the conservative side of the internet had a field day. Memes flooded social media, comparing Harris’s failed manure-shoveling skills to her failure to visit the border for over 90 days after being put in charge of the crisis. “Maybe we should send Kamala to the border with a shovel,” one post joked. “At least that way she might get something done.”
But the implications are deeper. If someone in such a high position can’t manage a simple task, what does that say about her readiness to lead? Incompetence in a photo-op may be funny, but incompetence in office is downright terrifying.
Our Take
The sheer absurdity of this situation isn’t just humorous—it’s a glaring reminder of the state of our leadership. When a sitting vice president can’t shovel manure, it raises serious questions about her competence to lead on more complex issues. And while it’s easy to laugh at the symbolism of the situation, it should also serve as a wake-up call. If Harris can’t be trusted to complete a basic farm task, why should we trust her to make critical decisions for the country?
The fact that Harris’s literal failure to shovel manure feels symbolic of her political career is both hilarious and terrifying. Her inability to handle the most menial of tasks might just be a metaphor for the state of our government: out of touch, over its head, and wholly unqualified.
As amusing as this episode may be, it’s a stark reminder that the people we elect to lead should possess at least a baseline level of competence. Right now, it seems the only thing Harris is shoveling is excuses.
Kamala ain’t got a clue how to use a shovel https://t.co/lElbxJcWHV
