Democratic vice-presidential candidate Kamala Harris caused a social media frenzy after video footage of her rocking a pair of Timbs went viral.
Harris stepped off her private plane to visit the scene of a destructive California wildfire.
Twitter had a field day over Harris’ casual attire, reminiscent of Barack and Michelle Obama’s stylish stint in the White House.
Harris has actually been rocking Timbs for a hot minute.
On Monday, during a visit to the scene from President Donald Trump, the world leader renounced the scientific consensus that climate change is intensifying California’s wildfires.
“We want to work with you to really recognize the changing climate and what it means to our forest, and actually work together with that science — that science is going to be key,” California’s Natural Resources Agency, Wade Crowfoot told the president at McClellan Airport in Sacramento.
“It will start getting cooler. You just watch,” Trump said. Crowfoot then replied, “I wish science agreed with you.” To which the president said, “I don’t think science knows actually.”
Harris had a few blunt words about the president’s remarks.
“The people who are victimized by these, they could care less and their children could care less who they voted for in the last election. This is not a partisan issue,” Harris told reporters.
Harris said the climate crisis is intrinsically linked to public health crises, the economy, and systemic racism.
“Were it not COVID, we’d still be probably wearing masks right now,” she said. “This air is potentially toxic. When we are talking about the climate crisis, we are talking about a public health crisis.”
