Kamala’s New Campaign Ad is mocked as ‘the cringiest political ad ever created’
The Harris-Walz Campaign is being credited with producing one of the most absurd political ads of all time as the campaign continues to struggle with men.
The ad begins with a diverse group of men, one of whom was watering a garden, another who was lifting weights, and so forth. “I’m a man,” each of the men featured in the ad declares.
They then proceed to describe the masculine activities each of them partake in. “I’m man enough to enjoy a barrel-proof bourbon” and “man enough to cook my steak rare. Man enough to deadlift 500 and braid the sh** out of my daughter’s hair,” the men say.
“You think I’m afraid to rebuild a carburetor? I eat carburetors for breakfast. I ain’t afraid of bears, thats what bear hugs are for.”
One of the men then declares that he is “sure as sh** not afraid of women,” something all of the actors in the ad proceeded to echo. “They want to control their bodies? I say go for it. They want to use IVF to start a family? I ain’t afraid of families. They want to be childless cat ladies? Have all the cats you want.”
The ad concludes with an endorsement of Kamala Harris for president. “Woman wants to be president? Well, I hope she has the guts to look me right in the eye and accept my full-throated endorsement.”
The ad has been near unanimously panned on social media, with most critics slamming it as out of touch and cringeworthy.
Can’t believe the party that’s been openly hostile to men for a decade now is losing the male vote. So weird. How did this happen?” said political commentator Bridget Phetasy.
“Holy f**k. It’s like Kamala has never met a man before. This Kamala ad is epic cringe,” wrote top-rated podcaster Tim Pool.
Another X user speculated that the Harris-Walz Campaign is run by “old hags” due to the references to carburetors. “You can tell this campaign is run by old hags because references like ‘rebuilding a carburetor’ sound like something you’d hear in a movie or TV show circa 1996 (because that was around the last time carburetors were relevant),” they wrote.

The only political outreach to men I’ve ever seen in my adult life is the cringe-fest the Kamala Harris campaign is currently doing as we speak.
Other than that, I cannot remember a single politician speaking exclusively to men. On either side. https://t.co/9GUeg3fApW

If you thought that ad of the men for Kamala was cringe, wait until you see the same group’s Tim Walz video pic.twitter.com/RtEfCDCAB2
