00:00As many politicians have learned, you don't get to the top without rubbing a few people
00:04the wrong way.
00:05Kamala Harris is no exception to this rule, and many of her haters have been very public
00:10in their criticisms of her.
00:12We'll start with Kimberly Guilfoyle.
00:14As some may know, the drama between Guilfoyle and Harris dates way back to the early aughts.
00:19At the time, Guilfoyle was married to Gavin Newsom, who has since said she and Harris
00:23were close during that period.
00:24However, that may not be super accurate.
00:27After all, in 2003, Guilfoyle accused Harris of standing in her way of a job at the San
00:31Francisco D.A.'s office.
00:33In a scathing interview with SFGate, Guilfoyle claimed that when Harris learned of her job
00:37application, the now-presidential hopeful called her to say there was no budget for
00:41her.
00:42When Guilfoyle followed up with her own connections in the D.A.'s office, however, they refuted
00:46that.
00:47Guilfoyle told SFGate, quote,
00:48"...the bottom line is, she didn't want me there."
00:51As for Harris, she countered that, telling the outlet she'd never said anything of the
00:54sort and would have been happy to hire Guilfoyle.
00:57She also said she didn't understand where Guilfoyle was coming from, as they'd spent
01:01time together since the calls were made, and that she'd love to work with her.
01:04Whatever really went down between Harris and Guilfoyle, the tensions have continued.
01:09More recently, in a very heated appearance on Triggered with Donald Trump Jr., Guilfoyle
01:13went as far as claiming Harris didn't deserve her professional accolades, and that she was
01:17only named as the Democrat candidate.
01:19"...because she's a black Asian female.
01:22I mean, it's outrageous."
01:23Of course, Kimberly Guilfoyle isn't the only conservative and Fox News-related persona
01:27Kamala Harris has been critiqued by.
01:29Taking to X, then known as Twitter, in 2019, Tommy Lahren complained,
01:34"...Kamala, did you fight for ideals or did you sleep your way to the top with Willie
01:38Brown?"
01:39A few years later, Megyn Kelly echoed this sentiment in an X post of her own, slamming
01:43those who criticized the idea as sexist.
01:46She also wrote that their relationship was, quote,
01:48"...evidence of an unqualified political aspirant getting ahead based on something other than
01:53For what it's worth, Brown actually wrote about the matter in a piece for the San Francisco
01:57Chronicle.
01:58In his article, he didn't deny giving Harris promotions.
02:00However, he also pointed out that he'd done the same for countless other rising stars
02:05who he didn't have romantic relationships with.
02:07What's more, he joked that Harris had warned him not to jaywalk while she was DA, and she'd
02:12have no qualms about indicting him.
02:14Many were shocked when Amber Rose took to the stage at the 2024 Republican National
02:18Convention to praise Donald Trump.
02:21"...and that's when it hit me, these are my people, this is where I belong."
02:26Her support for the mega-crew shows no signs of waning, which makes her constant commentary
02:30on Kamala Harris pretty unsurprising.
02:33In the wake of the 2024 Democratic National Convention, Rose took to Instagram to shade
02:37the fact that the party featured so many celebrities.
02:40She quipped,
02:41"...I was thinking, Kamala should have a new slogan.
02:43It should be, let's manipulate Americans into thinking that everything is all good, everything
02:47is just funny and laughs and jokes, and cool ass music.
02:51I think she should put that on a hat."
02:52The video has since been deleted from Rose's Instagram account, so no word on whether she
02:55changed her mind.
02:57We doubt it, though.
02:59Another famous face who isn't a fan of Kamala Harris is Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
03:02However, it seems as though that could have something to do with hurt feelings.
03:06On August 14th, RFK Jr.'s team confirmed to The Washington Post that he had tried to speak
03:11with Harris and potentially be a part of her cabinet in the event of her victory.
03:14Unfortunately for the controversial politician, insiders told the outlet that the Democratic
03:18Party hadn't shown any interest.
03:20Even so, RFK Jr. remained hopeful, telling the outlet,
03:23"...I think they ought to be looking at every opportunity.
03:26I think it is going to be a very close race."
03:28Just one day later, though, he was singing a very different tune.
03:31Taking to X, RFK Jr. made a not-so-flattering list of comparisons between Harris' proposed
03:36policies and those of his late father and uncle.
03:39Long story short, he claimed Harris' policies opposed his values at every turn.
03:43In addition to claiming that Harris was a warmonger who partnered with big businesses
03:47over small ones and accusing her of dodging debates and not giving real updates about
03:51Joe Biden's health, RFK Jr. finished his rant with,
03:54"...I have no plans to endorse Kamala Harris for president.
03:57I do have a plan to defeat her."
03:59Possibly the least surprising person on a list of people who dislike Kamala Harris is
04:03her opponent, Donald Trump.
04:04But let's just say that what Trump really thinks of Harris has been a little inconsistent
04:08over the years.
04:09One of the standout comments from Trump's August Pennsylvania rally was his prediction
04:13that life under Harris would be bleak.
04:15He claimed,
04:16"...her radical liberal agenda ruined San Francisco.
04:18It ruined California when she was the attorney general."
04:20This, despite the fact that Congressman Jared Moskowitz had previously taken to X to post
04:26a copy of a check made out by Donald Trump to re-elect Harris as the attorney general
04:30in 2011.
04:31Bit of a head-scratcher there.
04:33Of course, no mention of Trump would be complete without factoring in his personal jives.
04:37In Pennsylvania, Trump couldn't resist poking fun at Harris' laugh.
04:40He quipped,
04:41"...Have you heard her laugh?
04:42That is the laugh of a crazy person.
04:44It's the laugh of a lunatic.
04:45At least he's been consistent on that front.
04:48After all, Trump's brutal nickname for Harris is Laughin' Kamala Harris."
04:52Despite the fact that he's called her as attractive as Melania,
04:55"...I saw a picture of her on Time Magazine today.
04:58She looks like the most beautiful actress ever to live."
