It’s long been rumored that there is no love lost between Jill Biden and Kamala Harris. Reports have circulated for years indicating that Jill has despised Harris ever since the future vice president implied that her husband, Joe Biden, was a racist during a Democrat debate in the 2020 election.
Joe was able to put this behind him enough to make Harris his vice president. Jill, however, has allegedly continued to hold a grudge.
On Wednesday, Jill gave one of her final White House speeches. During this time, the First Lady slipped up in a way that only lends credence to the rumors of her alleged beef with Harris.
From The New York Post:
Jill Biden caught herself during a Wednesday event at the White House after having made an ill-considered reference to the “joy” Americans are now feeling entering the holiday season after the 2024 election, claiming attendees were “reading into” her remarks.The first lady went on a tangent about the “joy” of the holidays — a buzzword that had defined Vice President Kamala Harris’ short-lived campaign — while speaking at a conference on advancing women’s health research. Jill, 73, urged attendees to take note of the White House décor and “feel, I don’t know, a little, a sense of joy. Because I think we all need like this, you know, we all need to feel joy now.”
“You’re all reading into that!” she blurted out, making the audience laugh.
Check out the awkward moment for yourself below.

Yikes!
Mistake Or Troll?
Perhaps this wasn’t a mistake at all. Instead, it was Jill’s attempt to take a jab at Harris and the Democratic establishment, which she likely feels betrayed her and Joe.
Throughout the first half of this year, Jill and the Democratic Party worked together to campaign for Joe with everything they had. That all changed in June, when Joe debated Trump for the first and ultimately only time. On the debate stage, Joe’s apparent cognitive failings were on full display to the world. Indeed, his performance was so bad that the Democratic Party lost all faith in his ability to win the election.
The Democrat establishment then spent weeks pressuring Joe to drop out of the race. He and Jill held out as long as they could, but the pressure became too much, and he dropped out in July. Within hours, the establishment anointed Harris as his replacement. Despite being Joe’s vice president, Harris showed no loyalty to him and eagerly took the position of Democratic presidential nominee.
From there, Harris launched a campaign that revolved around “joy.” Instead of laying out specific policies, Harris and her Democratic supporters constantly ranted about “joy” on the campaign trail. They appeared to think that the American people would be dumb enough to buy into a campaign built on “joyful” vibes rather than on substance.
Unfortunately, they were dead wrong. On Election Day, Trump trounced Harris in both the Electoral College and the popular vote.
After that embarrassing debacle, the last word any Democrat wants to hear right now is “joy,” yet that’s the specific word Jill used yesterday. Whether it was a mistake or a troll, it’s clear that Jill is still not a fan of Kamala Harris!
